ok so im getting two fi bl 15's and i really dont know which way to go for amps. i was thinking of the crescendo bc3500 or the rockford fosgate T1500-1bdCP, i would have gone with the T2500 but i dont want to pay 1600 for an amp. so which would be better the crescendo or the T1500??

I would get a Crescendo. The SSA store has plenty to choose from.

I would also get the crescendo. Gives you more headroom.

Retail markup's a bitch

....that would be worth paying for IF stores hired someone worth a shit to help sell/explain

If your paying new prices you forsure should go with the crescendo

seems your question is that of funds.... i think you already made your choice.

well the crescendo and the t1500 are damn near the same price like within twenty dollars theyre both about 800 bucks which im fine with i just didnt want to drop 1600 on an amp thats all. i was leaning towards crescendo anyways

Who knew the letters RF are worth half of the value of the amp? Might be a bold statement but for more than twice the power for the same price, the Crescendo would be a no brainer.

 your paying for way more then the letters.

 

 i know your not silly enough to think that the insides are the same ,

 

 the RFs are a way better build amp then the cresendo, you can bet  anything on that.

I do not doubt the insides are different, I know they are. I never have doubted the quality of RF either, but there are pros and cons with any product. If it were my money, I would get the Crescendo for the power and the fact that they aren't bad amplifiers, and for the price compared to power I think it's the better buy between the two.

no doubt i would buy the nendo aswell.

thanks for all the input guys!
