Experts please... Need your opinions
I've done my research but can't make up my mind.I'm thinking about getting amps,2 12" subs, and whatever else to have a fine running system.
Option 1: Amps:HiFonics Brutus BX1500D mono amp
HiFonics Zeus ZX6400 multi channel amp
Option2: Amps:Phoenix Gold Xenon X1200.1 mono amp
Phoenix Gold Xenon X200.4 multi channel amp
Which option would you choose?
Now for the subs and speakers. What do you recommend I run with these amps considering option 1 or 2? I have searched and read but I still don't know what to choose. No options here. I need your opinions!!!
Btw, the genre I mostly listen to is Rap/Hip Hop, Techno. Looking for SPL & SQ
Capacitor... What do you recommend?
Thanks for all your input!!! Greatly appreciated!!!

Here is what I would do:
Use the Brutus amp for your subs. That amp is a very good and affordable amp. Just make sure you get subs that can handle that much power and will see a final load of 2 ohms or under to get max output from your amp.
I would just buy a 2ch amp (Phoenix gold Ti from sound doamin - great amps on closeout) and use your headunit to power your rears.
Speakers? how much do you want to spend? There are a lot of good brands....
Subs..Image Dynamics, elemental designs, Res. Engineering.
Speakers - Focal, ID, Alpine, Boston Acoustics....

Thanks for the suggestions!
I've deciced to go with the Diamond Audio
M6MKII12D4 subs, Diamond Audio S600S for components, and Diamond M661 for mids. Also the BatCap 35 Farad cap. I plan on running 2 12's so this setup will give me a 1 ohm load with the Hifonics Brutus BX1500D.

Too late. I was going to recommend option 2 w/2 JL 12w6v2. I've heard many cars run the same or very similar setup. All I can say is A rough estimate would be around 150db.
Hope it all turns out well.
