New member Username: Bone32Post Number: 7 Registered: Jun-08 | Hey guys. Gonna grab a Rockford Fosgate Power T1500-1bd. Rated 1500rms at 1 ohm. However, I would like to wire it to .5ohm. Would it be safe to do it with this amp? |

Otherwise look into the IA 20.1 or SAZ1500, I see more RD boards in for repair then i do at comps so id steer clear of them |

The inputs and few other internals are upgraded, but close to being the same amp. So how can you even state what you just did? Also, please tell me where alot have been in repair. I would like to know, because I work with the company VERY close and we have VERY few issues with these amps. Kevin |
