Not worth it at all,especially if you can get a Mephis 4Kw for 450 bucks.

Then get a Fosgate t40001bd. That will put out damn near 5000 and no one ever complains about Rockford amps.

besides you were hitting 152 with the pos earthquake amp so if you get the memphis 4kw's i see 160 in your future.

The Memphis 4KWs are pretty good quality if you ask me...and like I stated in the other thread,weren't you running that Earthquake amp at an ohm load lower than specified?

Fosgate once again isnt rated at 5Krms+ Chad i heard of the bug you were talkin about that Memphis confirmed.. somthing with some settings.. and i have been seeing lots of blown 4K's on ebay. I dont want to chance it... 1,200 full dealer warranty,can give it higher voltage no prob...

well the bug is that you have to have the ssf on or else it shuts off. if you have the ssf on then you are fine. also the downside to the memphis is that you have to really becareful with your voltage. if it drops below 11v then you have a chance to damage the amps. so yeah you shouldn't get that seeing how you like to let the battery drain sometimes.

i just realized you are looking for one amp right? if that is the case, i believe those amps you mentioned would be worth it.

That's if you have the voltage to give.I'll ask you again,weren't you running that Earthquake amp at an ohm load lower than reccomended?

Heh,what's the point in running an amp on on 10volts?That's less power for the sub you know.

I keep telling you man...if you're hitting the numbers that you're hitting on music there's no point in getting all that power that you keep talking about.You just don't understand it I guess.

Killa...do as you please, but you can get a t40001bd for $700. It will put out 4500watts for almost 50% less than the other amps ($1200). Hit me up if your interested.

My buddy is an authorized RF dealer and he has benched the t4001db at like 4500rms and up. I figure the atomic and warlord are about 85 to 90 percent efficency so i think it would be best to get a RF

Thats because the idiots let them go under 12V and they don't like that at all

^I cant chance that i want a amp(s) that i can abuse crazy and not worry :D. Money isnt really the issue.... most the cases you get what you pay for. Rob, the numbers i got were from a broken TL and a SPL mic. i probally am hitting atleast 150db with the music if not 149's but i want to eventually get into the 160+ zone.... i doubt i would have got close to it with just the PHD5000D... and i can easily see that these subs can take lots more power then i have been giving them

You can find DD Z1s for about $900 and they do more than 5kw with awesome quality. So no $1200 for 5kw ain't that great of a deal by comparison.

Well if you want to hit in the 160s on music you better be ready to drop about 10G's on amps just to get enough power.

Haha i think chad has you people going.. this is the first time im hearing this. lol

Im already getting read to drop about 5G'z on amps and another 2G'z on batterys. And probally another 2 on subs.


MS: THe Z1 doesnt do over 5K at 1ohm at 14.5V does it? ANd were do you find them at 900? Last i checked they were going for 1400ish but that may have been right around the realease date..

And the $900 is what I've seen them going for on forums. I'm sure they're a lot more new.
