Product Overview
Add four-channel power and flexible speaker configuration options to your 12V vehicle audio system with the Hifonics BRUTUS BRL1200.4 amplifier. Its Super D-Class™ design delivers up to 1200 watts maximum power, while a built-in VU meter provides a visual display of audio levels.
Key Features & Benefits
- Four-channel output: Use the rated four-channel outputs or the specified bridged mono outputs for a different system layout.
- Built-in VU meter: Choose VU Meter mode to view output levels while calibrating gain.
- Extruded aluminum heat sink: The mass-loaded heat sink is designed to dissipate heat.
- Integrated protection: Multi-stage circuitry protects against thermal overload, short circuits, overcurrent, and over- or under-voltage conditions.
- Angled molded terminals: Power, ground, and speaker connections support the stated wire gauges for installation planning.
