RF
More power and better quality. Those amps are underrated, should do about 4500 watts. |

Either of those amps is going to draw a ton of current. And those memphis don't like low voltage at all, which is likely to happen when running an amp that big. |

I think you would be fine with only two additional batteries. But, if you have the money, the more batteries the better. |

that is because people that have memphis amps run them way below their ohm loads. when you do that it needs sh!t load of current. |

Rockford Fosgate Power amps a great hands down the RF T10001 over the Memphis PRD1000.1 I've seen the RF T10001 put upwards to 1500 watts. I can't say the same for the Memphis PRD1000.1 |

" both does over 1000, but the memphis seemed like my subs sound better and hit harder "
Then you had them set differently. It's impossible to notice a difference an SQ deference between two even moderately good class D amplifiers producing the same power. The only noticeable difference would be loudness, based on the amount of power each amp does. (the RF will do more) |

no the rf will not do more, and the memphis is a more solid amp, and i like the looks better on it to, why do u think i sold the rf instead of selling the memphis? lol |

The memphis MCD1000 is better than the PR1000.1 in every way and the MCD1000 can't hang with the Rockford T10001. The Memphis PR amps were there lower line before they come out with the street edge series. |

^^^ That's true now that you mention it
" no the rf will not do more "
Yes it will. Those amps do at least 500 watts more than rated, on their birthsheets.
" and the memphis is a more solid amp "
No it's not. How many blown RF power series are there around, and how many Memphis 4kw?...... I thought so. |

Ok. Lets clear some ideas.
Mephis 4kw= good amps in their ratings.
Rockford t4000bd= Exceeds power ratings.
Both good quality.
I think memphis is better than rockford when it comes to quality nowadays, but rockford is clearly more powerful.
And yeah, you can't tell difference with the same power, in fact, there's no audible difference between 1200-1300w rms, to 1400-1500w rms. |

i would go with RF unless you are 100% sure you wont be playing it on low voltage....im sure the RF would take it better then the 4KW but i still think RF is better quality from what ive read\seen. RF's been out longer and still see more blown memphis;s going around.....my quality point.. lol |

the reason you guys see more memphis blown then the rf is cause people with the memphis run their amps below their recomended ohm load. if you have the charging and you drop the ohm load on the memphis, it will sh!t on the RF. the RF goes into protection as soon as the ohm load is too low. which is good cause you won't blow the amp.
unfortunately i didn't have sufficient charging and i drop the ohm to .25ohm (.5ohm strapped) and i blew one amp. it was going fine for awhile so i figured it was okay but i guess not. lol. |

all i said is the memphis prd1000.1 is for sure better than the rf T10001, cause ive owned both, and if u dont believe that u must not know sh!t, cause ive tested those exact two amps and the memphis is better, im not saying the rockford was bad cause it was a great amp too, but i just prefer the memphis, after i tried them side by side that gave me the choice of keeping the memphis, never had aproblem with it, it will stay COLD on bass cd's, test tones, but i sold the rf about wat i paid for the prd new lol and its still going good |

can you say pwnt
we can
A. End the Thread
or
B. Say the 4KW is better then the RF40001...and show proof... quality and power both...
but either way you look at it i say the RF beats it... but the memphis would do good if not abused... but i like amps and subs you can abuse a bit... so you dont have to worry about it breaking...
also 4KW's are selling on ebay 750 each right now... 1 ad but he says he got 16 of em

" ive done my amp testing "
You've tested both? Lets see the numbers then..... I'm dying to see that memphis do more power than the RF
Or did you mean quality? If so there's no concrete measurement of quality, so you couldn't have tested that. You go by the company's reputation and the reputation the the specific model of equipment. |
