I did a web search for them, and all I came up with was an online "store" called Millionbuy.com, and some Ebay auctions.
ANY time that you see an unknown car audio brand like this one, that's making absolutely outragious power claims like this one (2 channel 1400w amplifier? Yeah right

) - run the other direction.
ANY time that you see a car audio "brand name" that is trying to bite on another car audio brand name ("Uh... wait a minute... I think I've heard of that brand before... something about it sounds familiar..."

) - run the other direction.
Personally, I've had all the Rockwood / Kenford / Hitron / Interfire / Kole / Phoenix Digital / etc than I can handle.
As they say - a sucker is born every second.
I'm sure you don't want to buy a "1400 watt amp!!!!" that looks like THIS inside:

You GET what you pay for. The longer you are in this hobby, the more you realize that there are very few expensive amplifiers out there - that 90% of the amplifiers on the market are very simply "you get what you pay for". One feature costs a little more here, trading off quality saves a little there.

thats so cool geo, how do they get all the componentry hidden in the circuit board like that?

Yeah - impressive, all that invisible componentry, isn't it? :happy055:
You know how surface mount technology is going... ever smaller and smaller compnents...
And amp efficiency these days - all that current handled by that little doorbell transformer.

well technology like that isnt cheap, thats probably why you arent that familiar with their stuff

I think Hifonics is the name they are trying to bite...
"Hi tron.. Hi tron... Hi tron... that sounds familar, I think I've heard of that name before... where have I heard that name before?"

wont do it well.....that amp is 2 channel and your sub is dual 4 ohm voice coil.....you could bridge it at 8 ohms but a better idea would be to buy a mono block amp
