I'm trying to decide which amp to get. I have two JL Audio 13W7 subs and I'm trying to decide which amp would be the best...RF T2500-1bd or US Amps Merlin MD3DN.

*The subs can handle about 1000 watts each. And, I know both of these amps are underrated.

Any input would be appreciated (I want to order tonight! :yahoo: ) Thanks!

I was going to mention that, but I wanted some unbiased opinions! Haha

I mean your going to get more power out of the rockford, but is double the price worth the extra ~500 rms. Id go with the us amps personally.

if you dont care about the prices i would get the RF amp. Only because I heard very good things about Rockford amps. But i haven't used both amps.

id get the RF over everything recommended in this thread, if you do have a problem with the product the company WILL stand by thier product. That is if bought through an authorized dealer
