hi all, i'm looking for a 5.1 amp. the two that i are looking for are the phoenix gold 5.1MT and the hifonics zeus 5.1. I'm not too partial to hifonics cause i don't know much about it, but it does have a higher RMS rating than the phoenix gold.

Both are 50x5 but the PG is 100x1 and the hifonics is 200x1 for the sub. The reason i'm choosing between these two are cause they are the only one's i've found that accept toslink and are in my price range <$500.

what are your preferences and opinions on the two of these amps. thanks

well what i've also seens is the PG has a freq. response from 20-20k, SNR of >100 and is rated at 50x5 at 14.4 (at 12.5 it's rated at 18x5) is this normal?

the hifonics has a freq response of 10-30k, has a SNR ratio of >95 and is rated at 50x5 (doesn't say at what voltage)... still a little confused at what to get

oh and sancho... you say PG... how come, you have 2 hifonics amps. just curious

PHOENIX GOLD all the way. I have 2 PG tantrums they are better than ALOTT of amps. PG amps very underated. They are great. try for titaniums if u can get em otherwise the new xenon line is alright but heard they have some problems with em.

Phoenix Gold makes some of the best amps out there for the money.
