Holy Rusted Knobs on an Oldschool Punch 45, This Thing Is Great
I'll start by saying that this amp is awesome. It pushes my two P3D4 12s like no other at 1 ohm. Its wayyyy cheaper here than the regular retail price, and it ships in two days (with prime). I highly doubt you could find a way to dislike this amp if you're building a simple daily driver sound system. I was able to easily hit 150 db at about 30 feet away.Pros:1. Its powerful. Each amp is tested by Rockford before shipping and they send you the sheet listing it's true RMS at 1 ohm. Mine pushes 1287 watts. SAY WHAT?!2. Its tiny. I couldn't believe they squeezed 1200 watts out of this petite little thing.3. I looks cool. Like a big black and silver brick of awesomeness.4. It comes with an awesome bass equalizer and all the hardware to wire and place it.5. Its easy to wire. I had my previous amp wired with terminal connectors, but the Rockford requires only that you insert the bare wire into the terminal on the amp and tighten the screws with the provided allen key.I like to try to be a little critical, but it was hard this time. So...The Cons:1. The "4 gauge" terminals on the amp seem to be a little smaller than my KnuKonceptz 4 gauge wire. I had to trim a little wire off and still struggled to get all of wire in the terminal. (I do not have the same problem with my girlfriend)2. If you already have wiring terminal connectors on your wiring, you'll need to take it off, which is slightly inconvenient.3. The light on the equalizer (bass knob) is very, very bright blue, and is almost blinding at night when driving. And, its the EXACT same color as police lights, which caused me a little panic the first few nights of driving with it, as I kept thinking the reflection from the light was a cop trying to pull me over (Trying is the key word).There is no way to turn this off short of unplugging it.4. It'll leave you wondering what you've been doing with your life (or at least how you've been coping without this thing while driving).5. It will make your car fall apart. I have a 2006 Honda Accord. This thing makes it vibrate as if it were made of plastic bags (My girlfriend loves it). After having the amp for one day, I ordered 50 sq ft of sound deadening to combat the awful vibrations. So far its working. (She wants to to take the sound deadening out)Great amp, great price, go buy it now.

Amazing value for money on SQ and power!
Really enjoy this amplifier! It’s very powerful and feels extremely well built. I have it powering two 10” Kicker L7 (dual 2 ohm) subs and it’s more than enough power to get them moving. Honestly I can’t turn the gain past 4-5 without overpowering them. The Punch EQ isn’t that great (just turn it off) but other than that I’m pretty happy. Does run pretty hot in the trunk of my car, but my trunk is VERY sealed and I haven’t ran into any issues with it going into protect after hours of heavy use. Only complaint is the adjustments are on the same side as the connections. Also, 4 gauge wiring is the max you can fit, it’s honestly pretty tight and you need to trim so edges off to get it to fit.Update: I ended up replacing the L7’s with Memphis M5 12” subs and wow! Even with the amp being “underpowered” for the subs (400W per speaker when they want 600W rms) the bass is so clean and strong. It literally flexed the roof of my Mercedes S550. Zero distortion, no issues with it going into protect mode, nothing. It’s just a great amp that I recommend to everyone on a budget.

Excellent amp! Massive power in a very small package!... I'm Mike, and I'm a carpenter, not an excellent one like the one that taught me, but a pretty good one. I build multi million dollar houses from the ground up and I love a loud stereo system! So let's assume I understand cubic feet/inches, also basic audio frequency and wattage blah blah, and that air flow/pressure isn't important for sound but that's what sound actually is.... What I can tell everyone here is I have 2 RF 1200W AMP's each bridged to one Pioneer ib flat 3002 12in' 1500W subs (2-12's). I built a box that can almost fit under the backseat of a 2007 F150 ext. cab (supercab) and it perfectly meets pioneers optimum cubic in' enclosure specs. I made it downward facing to create cab emitting audio (the truck is a boom box). Now even for an experienced craftsman this is a difficult task because mistakes are easy to make when one side is notched and the other is sq... Anyways, if you're able to create the optimal enclosure & mount conditions for any reasonably priced Pioneer with similar watt/freq. needs that this amp can fulfill then get ready for blurry back seat faces and itchy noses because everything is going to shake, including your neighbors family photos off their walls. The little system you see in the photos I've provided is able to push out a sound and vibration that will more than astonish you, it will baffle everyone! WOW! Is all I can say, excellent job RF! This amp is mind blowing powerful for it's size (a slave switch would make it perfect).. Even without SS Its a simple diy dual set up. Everyone that gets this amp be sure to purchase subs with similar specs. If you're gonna DIY like I did, be sure to research the subs and build your system accordingly. CUTTING ANY CORNERS ON ANY PART OF YOUR INSTALL WILL MASSIVELY DEPLETE PERFORMANCE!! If you're gonna pay for something nice like this then you need to put in the time to get it done RIGHT! You'll be amazed with the results, If you're not then you set it up wrong.
