Posted June 19, 200421 yr JUst curious man, Rockford use to be the Goto company for me, now it seems as if they have been conversing with best buys pres. or something to sale crap....The last RF sub i bought was last years model, it said it could handle 900 rms right, so i got my jbl 1200.1, had the gains down, but had it so it could play a lil bit, after about 3 days i was back at BB asking for another sub, gotta love there warranty policy...HAHAHAHA, That could be a thing to do buy a whole lot of BB subs, get the warrant, goto comps burp the subs at whateva ya wanted, then take them all back hahaha...But i really dont know ABout RF any more, their stuff looks nice, but i have not really heard them.. The amps look nice to but like i said can i believe the new ratings that they put on thier... :thud: :ugh: anybody know
June 19, 200421 yr Author cool, i have kinda lost faith in them but if u find somehting out let me know
June 20, 200421 yr Aaron can tell you I've never liked fosgate... and it's just gone downhill in the last year or two.
June 21, 200421 yr Fast and Furious happened. It's all about image and loud now. Performance can suffer for the almighty dolla bill yo!
June 21, 200421 yr Admin Aaron can tell you I've never liked fosgate... and it's just gone downhill in the last year or two. well this year, they made some sweeping changes and apparently they brought back a few of the original designers and techs from the old days when RF was king, so the new amps and speakers are supposed to be a big step forward, so I am very interested to see how things play out, B)
June 22, 200421 yr Fast and Furious happened. ! Bingo. There is the problem.Don't really like the newer stuff ... seems kind of plasticy to me.Oh well ... I'd still suggest a Power HX2 to someone if they wanted something loud. Thumbs up to the older stuff. - Steve
June 23, 200421 yr i'm with steve...the new stuff is ...well..it looks fake...but anyway..the new amps(bd series) are huge...but are supposed to never get hot..as to the old stuff....hx2's are da bomb...i just sold my 8's for $200..each with a blown coil..but then again....i gave them more then 100wrms more then they were supposed to handle for the better part of a year, and then fed them pure distortion for 10 minutes trying to break 140db....got 139.6....audiocontrol mike and a memphis 1000d with 50-55 hz test tones....WHEEEEEEEEEE :thud: anyway..image and loud is everything..wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
