This amp is bad a**

This amp is crazy for the size. I have had tons of systems I recently got this amp (Punch 500.2) (2 Rockford P2 15) and a Kinetik batt h and a custom built 1in mdf ported box I put this in a 99 pathfinder all I can say is wow this pounds! The amp gets a lil warm but come on its 2 15s I love Rockford always have. So my buddy went out and bought the new JL x 1000d and 2 15 W0v2s my **** still pounds harder and I only paid 290 plus everything came from Sonic and there is still a warranty

Wow

1000watt max? ha. thats what my birth sheet says 2104watt max lol. this amp is crazy. no joke. sickk. im getting 217rms x 2 at 4ohm, 351rms x 2 at 2ohm and 701rms x 1 at 4ohm. rockfords quality is the best i personally have ever experienced. i have a kicker zx850.4 that i originally had running my highs (i got some highs lol..) and i switched to this little beast when i got it and holy crap its so clear. the highs pierce your ears and they never did that on the zx. im a diehard rockford fan lol and this thing just confirms it. im lookin to switch to the t1000-1bd or the legendary t1500-1bd for my subs (granite i can afford it lol)

Glad i bought it

I bought this amp to power a pair of punch p2d4-12's and was a great choice. When i first picked it up, was little heavier than i was expecting. Well built. After installed thanks to its tucked away connections it looks really clean. I still have this amp in my car, still sound just awesome. Doesn't get that hot at all. I'm running 2ohms on both chanels. The birth sheet that came with it says it's putting out 196x2 rms at 4ohms 317x2 rms an 2ohms and 633x1 rms at 4ohms overall this amp sound awesome. Looks good, overall its a nice amp to get. You'll get what you pay for.

P500.2

This amp is worth your money. Its underrated for a 500 watt amp it will give you more power for what you paid for like rms for this amp is really at 700+ watts and if you have a multi meter you'll see what im talking about. I have a T1 12" dual 2 and it pounds with this amp

Expect nothing less from RF

I bought this amp to power two 12 in precision power, power class subs, the amp is nasty and pushes them with clean power. the look of the amp is simple and clean, gets a little warm but never shut off or had any problems installing or running it. the terminals are nice and easy to use. the amp is solid and doesn't feel cheap like a lot of other brands and most importantly and you would know if you have every bought a rockford amp is that it is way under rated, my birth sheet says 2121 watts, and that's true power. EXPECT nothing less from this company, also shipping was fast, thanks Sonic!

2 crunk fo da trunk

This amp is great for someone who wants to slam but not pay outrageous prices. For a little over 200 bucks this amp is well worth the money. Only problem is that it heats up a little more than I'd like it to. Other than that, good clean bass. I get compliments all the time. Highly recommend this product.
