extrabigjon Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 I have some older Rockford gear, not 90's old but early 2000's old. A pair of Rockford Fosgate RFR3112 12" power HX2 all original never been reconed. One Rockford Fosgate Power bd1500.1 this is the grey version with a red illuminated RF logo. Sent the amp off to Larry at Landis Technical Services to go over it. Never put in service after receiving it back. Grew out of the loud aftermarket stereo scene many years ago, like over a decade and no desire to put this into another vehicle. Realized the value of keeping my hearing as good as it can be. Stuff just sits on a shelf reminding me of money wasted in my youth. Don't get me wrong, it was fun at the time. If you made it this far is there any value in this stuff?

1point21gigawatts Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 That’s dishonest for you to try and take advantage of somebody like that. That equipment is worth way more money than that. And he can’t sell car audio on this forum. He doesn’t meet the requirements. “How can we help you?” “And don’t forget to tell them that the customer isn’t always right.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I am aware of the minimum posting requirements to sell items. $50 would make a dent in the packing materials. The crate idea from audiofanticz sounds like the way to go. I know the gear has value to it just no idea what that might be. Many years ago the factory recone kits dried up and mine are all original. After Rockford Fosgate quit repairing these amps Landis Technical Services purchased all the old stock and did the servicing. I assume most on here knew the above info already but, I'm just some random unknown guy on the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnP Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 As I know and understand it: Car audio does not generally appreciate with age and what something's worth depends on the market quirks and who is willing to pay what . Tube audio gear was once almost relegated to junk however it's had a resurgence of sorts and a growing market similar to the re appearance of Vinyl LP records. With the current pandemic who knows what to expect. I know of what you speak. Memories of youth: Priceless. I have some jurrassic Sanyo PA 6100's bought at a flea market about ten years ago for just about nothing. The things looked like pulls from a flooded out car. Had to have 'em because of the memories back in their day where I was and what I was doing. Any other reason is sheer nonsense. The Sanken Hybrid thick film Power IC's used for the amplifiers are probably obsolete and how the things still manage to work I don't know beyond belief in miracles. About the only real tangible value is the aluminum in the heat sinks and chassis. If you have the knowledge to it: Car audio can make great home audio so not all is lost.
