If these (spec) are right the Hifonics more power. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_8426_Hifonics+XX-THOR.html http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_7562_Orion+HCCA-D5000.html |

It would be about equal since Hifonics power ratings are about 20% over. I would say get whichever one is cheaper. They should be about equal in terms of quality also. The only difference I can see is the higher SNR on the Hifonics. |

Friend has a hifonics and orion, not those exact models. Orion seems to run cooler and I generally prefer orion, it's a good brand to go with. |

"It would be about equal since Hifonics power ratings are about 20% over". That's not true. Remember that hifonics brutus line is the only overrated. All XX models are accurately rated or underrated, and their quality is good. |

So true Julio...The Brutus amps are what they are great budget amps..a ton of people tend to think Hifonics only make the Brutus line, and say ALL Hifonics amp are overrated ,thats just not the truth. |
