Is this a strong amp for the BTL? I'm debating between the BXi2608D and T1500-1BD any sujjestions between the two and only the two. Thanks.

Sundown SAZ 3000D would be a better choice...

Well the thing is I don't have to money for that thats why I'm saying BXi2608D or T1500-1BD.

I would go with the RF hands down.

BXi2608D

2600 Watts RMS Power @ 1 ohm

Peak Power: 5000+ Watts

and plus I've heard alot of good things about hifi but, still rockford IMO has a more respected name and it does more than what it says I'm just in for the honest opinions I want watt for watt on this sub.

There aren't any regulations on what companies 'rate' their amps at. I'm not positive on what one of those Hifonics put out, but I'm sure that it isn't 2600 watts. Rockford usually rates their products pretty close to what they say. (usually underrated, i.e. RF rates the P400.4 at 50X4, my birth sheet says 76x4)

So, it's a definite go go on the RF?

I would, as would 95% of this forums I bet. What are you paying for the RF?

That makes no sense whatsoever.

Birth sheets mean squat.

i think those T rockford amps are usually underrated about 700 watts, and ive the hifonic are usually about 20% overrated.

Okay.

Edit: Is it a requirement that all amps have to be CEA certified?

No

some companies will abide to the CEA power rating. it would say CEA compliant on the box. the birth sheet isn't always going to show more for the RF amps. it does do close to the rated readings. usually +/- 200 watts. also another thing to know is that CEA rating is at 14.4 volts. some companies may rate their power lower, like sundown.

For $350 you can pick up a factory recertified Sundown SAZ-1500D from dB-r.

Is this a good referb company? I mean I've heard of companies that only fix that one problem thats visible and just that and that only, do they check and test everything etc? I'm seriously going to consider this it's something new to where I live, I should make it hott. Haha

dB-r = the best in repair in my opinion. I know if one of my amps fails, it will go there.

I am pretty sure he gives a 1 year warranty - most refurbs are just 90 days.

Last time I talked to him, the SAZ-1500D is one of his favorite amps. . .Get the new heatsink for $375.
