i was considering buying one of those two also, either the memphis st1000d or the brutus 1000 or 1500, but i was wondering are they actually usable as daily drivers running at 1ohm?
i have the hifonics bx1000D and pounds the hell out of my cerwin vega v-max 15's. I also had it pushing some audiobahn 15's and it blew 7 sets of those.
i have a 1000d memphis and it has pounded the hell out of whatever i hook it up to. they are very compact and do not drain power from your batt. or alt. but be sure you run it at 1ohm. i have not had a problem yet.
