Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2164 Registered: Jul-06 | RF More power and better quality. Those amps are underrated, should do about 4500 watts. |
New member Username: MikeneufeldAbbotsford, BC Canada Post Number: 7 Registered: May-07 | and the memphis, is it more power hungry than the rf |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2168 Registered: Jul-06 | 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. |
New member Username: MikeneufeldAbbotsford, BC Canada Post Number: 8 Registered: May-07 | atleast a 200 amp ho alt and 3 kinetic batts eh? |

Silver Member Username: Solobaric4lifePost Number: 777 Registered: Jan-07 | the memphis is underatted to, also the memphis will never have problems, and they never heat up at ALL, long lasting, good quality amp but they are current takin sum beaches |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2177 Registered: Jul-06 | Yes they do have problems with low voltage, search some of the competition forums and you will see what I mean...... |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 12645 Registered: Oct-05 | 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. |
Silver Member Username: Solobaric4lifePost Number: 780 Registered: Jan-07 | ^^ correct, id take memphis over rf amps, definetaly the memphis prd1000.1 over the rf T10001bd, jmo both does over 1000, but the memphis seemed like my subs sound better and hit harder MEMPHIS AMPS |
Silver Member Username: Solobaric4lifePost Number: 781 Registered: Jan-07 | ohh ^^^^, experimence with both amps |
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 1679 Registered: Sep-06 | 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 |
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 1680 Registered: Sep-06 | Back to the topic Rockford T40001 over Memphis 4KW. My opinion |
Silver Member Username: Solobaric4lifePost Number: 783 Registered: Jan-07 | Memphis PRD1000.1 > RF T10001 both does over 1000, but the memphis seemed like my subs sound better and hit harder MEMPHIS AMPS i have owned both and the memphis is DEFINETALY 100% better, i sold the rf to a friend about 2 weeks before i activated this ecoustics account u aint got to believe me f you dont want, i just know, i had both, so get the rf if u like it better |
Silver Member Username: Solobaric4lifePost Number: 784 Registered: Jan-07 | ^^^^ there is a review of those 2 amps, but they are both great |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2212 Registered: Jul-06 | " 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) |
Silver Member Username: Solobaric4lifePost Number: 788 Registered: Jan-07 | 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 |
Bronze Member Username: MikeneufeldAbbotsford, BC Canada Post Number: 31 Registered: May-07 | sweet good responses guys |
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 1683 Registered: Sep-06 | 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. |

Post Number: 2690 Registered: Mar-06 | id have to say RF beats Memphis... to see what is a better build.... see which one you can find more of... that are being sold "AS IS, FOR PARTS, NEEDS REPAIR" ect lol.... i know the winner of that one.... |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2226 Registered: Jul-06 | ^^^ 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. |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4571 Registered: Dec-05 | 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. |
Silver Member Username: JkidderSpring hill, Florida Usa Post Number: 552 Registered: Nov-05 | premier sound ur a fvckin post whore. consolidate ur god damn posts. u had 3 in 15 mins w/ no1 responding in between about some stupid sh1t. stfu and make it one post. BTW they r both good amps so which ever one u want, get! like juliob said, theres no audible difference between the same sub on 1200 compared to that same sub on 1300. |

Post Number: 2706 Registered: Mar-06 | 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 |
Gold Member Username: JohnfiacA-ToWn, 152-153db Da... My wangers b... Post Number: 2707 Registered: Mar-06 | also the rf will give you more power.. |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 12687 Registered: Oct-05 | 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. |

Platinum Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 12688 Registered: Oct-05 | yeah killa tell me about it man. fack!!!!! i got warranty so i am okay though. also chauncey and the rest are right. for a daily setup the RF is much better choice. |
Silver Member Username: Solobaric4lifePost Number: 797 Registered: Jan-07 | 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 |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2283 Registered: Jul-06 | " 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. |
