![]() ![]() ![]() The vast majority of the public is not looking to purchase a 10 or 15+ year old used amp but rather they want something reasonably priced, new, and with a warranty since the odds are good they are going to eventually going to release the magic smoke from the amp. €™s pretty obvious I was comparing HiFonics to what they had become after Steve had stopped working with them and before Maxxsonics purchased them. John or no John.Īnd as I have stated in MANY threads the ONLY new amps I would buy would be the ones Steve is making. ![]() Sorry but HiFonics is still shit compared to when they were built by ZED Audio by Steve. along with Lanzar, Blitz, Pyle and Legacy.ĭiamond Audio produces some very good products that are clearly on the higher end of the scale, far surpassing anything produced by Infinity in at least 10 years. Pyramid is owned by Brooklyn, NY based Sound Around, Inc. It’s no secret that Harmon decided years ago to invest their car audio money in JBL and let Infinity have the home audio market. Infinity Kappa Perfects are possibly the most over-hyped under-performing comp set out there. Chunglam Digital is one of the largest Asian OEMs. In some cases the amp is assembled here hence the “Assembled in USA†sticker on some products. For the remaining 99% of the car audio manufacturers, the boards are sourced from overseas. The number of car audio amplifiers still actually made in America can be counted on one hand. HiFonics had turned into another flea market brand, which is really sad considering their prominence in the late 1980’s, until they were purchased by Maxxsonics who has completely turned around the company and have them back on the right path. Maxxsonics is based in Chicago, IL and John is incredibly helpful and a great guy to deal with. Back in the mid to late 1990s MBQ QSD were the comps used by a majority of IASCA competitors. The higher end MB Quart drivers are still built in Germany just like they were when Rockford owned MBQ and just like they were prior to the RF acquisition. A staggering amount of misinformation in this thread. ![]()
