Need to make an amp decision tonight...


Recommended Posts

My dad is probably the biggest douche ever. He told me spending that much on a used amp is stupid because I'm fucked if it doesn't work. So, no Rockford I guess.

WHATTT??

Steve I don't know why but everytime I see your new paint I want a Dr. Pepper...... is this normal?

heres an analogy for you. running a high power stereo without a fuse is like having unprotected sex with that hot chick at the bar with the sketchy sexual history. Sure you may be fine and nothing happens but that one time something does happen you're fucked.

i dont want woofer broke like bass sound clip clip and voice coil overheat

Hes right now a days a warranty its where its at, you never know how badly an amp is treated so the risk is sometimes not worth it.

so basically your saying im lying about my amps quality???

first off you dont know me.

2nd ppl who know will vouch and tell you and what stage my amps are and that would be brand new.

im not one of those little punks going around town with the volume cranked not giving a fuck how hot the amps are.

these amps have never seen a protect or thermal light in theyre lives.

never been ran down below 2 ohms either.

amps are no older than 2 months. mounted up once and tooken down once.

i go to alot of shows in florida and almost everyone from floridaspl.com has got a demo of these rockford and they will tell you the amps NEVER ever got hot. nothing above room temp.

No your right i dont know you sorry if you got the wrong idea about what i said, i was trying to rationalize what his dad was thinking about buying used stuff. I too take care of my stuff but when it comes to competing with brand new with warranty, we do get a bad rap. Sorry if you thought wrong.

Not sure why anyone would beat up on those T1K's those amps are beast i have 2 that are 2 years old and I've beat the rat shit outta them and they never gave me a problem. I now run 1500bd's and I treat them the same way, NO PROBLEMS EVER! I agree you cant really appreciate RF until youve felt their power. But... then again most people dont really want to pay for quality or true specs.

Yeah, on second thought I'd rather have a 3K amp that really does 750 continous peaks at 3K w/ 10 THD and hot enough to cook on.. Schweet.

And no im not talking about any of the other amps people have suggested I'm just defending an excellent amp with true specs that peeps are ragging on.

Your RF are excellent amps youll sell them.

That amp is a 350x2 mono bridgeable ?????? hmmmmmmmmmm
