Product Overview
Add a two-channel amplifier to your car audio system with the Hifonics BG-560.2 BRUTUS BG 560 Watt Two Channel Amplifier. Its Super D Class™ design supports stereo or bridged operation, while speaker-level inputs and DC signal sensing allow connection to compatible factory stereos without a separate remote wire.
Use the illuminated badge’s VU meter mode while setting gain, or switch the lighting to blue or off. RCA inputs and pass-through outputs give you another connection option when building around preamp signals.
Key Features & Benefits
- Stereo or bridged operation: Choose two-channel output or a bridged 4-ohm configuration for your system plan.
- OEM integration: Speaker-level inputs and DC signal sensing support connection to factory head units without RCA outputs or a separate remote wire.
- Thermal design: A mass-loaded extruded aluminum heat sink and 4-layer PCB support heat dissipation.
- Gain monitoring: The illuminated badge’s VU meter mode reflects audio levels while you calibrate gain.
- Signal connections: Nickel-plated RCA inputs and pass-through RCA preamp outputs support RCA-based system connections.
- Protection: Triple protection circuitry and power-supply current overload limiting address specified electrical and thermal fault conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What power output does the BG-560.2 provide?
Its listed outputs are 2 x 275 W at 2 ohms, 2 x 150 W at 4 ohms, or 1 x 560 W bridged at 4 ohms. The product highlights also describe 560-watt peak output.
Can I connect it to a factory stereo without RCA outputs?
Yes. It has speaker-level inputs and DC signal sensing auto turn-on for compatible factory head units, without a separate remote wire.
What input and system compatibility does it support?
It is listed for 12V automotive systems and accepts standard RCA preamp signals or high-level OEM speaker inputs. Confirm your signal type and speaker impedance for your setup.
What does the illuminated badge do?
It can display constant blue lighting, remain off, or switch to VU meter mode, which reflects real-time audio levels to assist with gain setup.
What protection features are included?
The listed protection circuitry covers over/under voltage, short circuits, and thermal overload. The power supply also has current overload limiting.
