I misunderstood your post. Sounded like you were trying to ask if it does rated power or under rms rating. The Rockford does have subsonic, but it's set at 28hz I believe and it's a push button on or off.
-
I have to disagree there. I doubt the Hifonics performs near as well as the Sundown as I have experience with both amplifiers.
-
@14v every bit of it maybe more. I think you mean some amps are over rated. How do you know RF is one of these brands?
-
Timothy, I sent you a PM.
-
The Hifonics is no match for the Sundown. Like I said before, you pay for what you get.
-
Vent or aero?
-
So do you have any questions? Might want to post up in the newbie section as well.
-
Then you will be very pleased with the Sundown, it will last forever.

x2

You get what you pay for and then some with Sundown. I used to run that same amp on a T9515-44. Good amps.

He must have taken them down. The link is an error page.

2x2.5k's or 1x5k?

Thats true, but the starting impedance will have to do with rise... The box will be the same regardless of which route. so im pretty sure i would rise to a lower load after rise if i ran a single amp at .5ohms than ran 2 amps at 1ohm each. ^is that correct? Even so, I don't think there would be much of an audible difference if any at all. -
This is becoming a confusion match. You fuse your power run to rms total wattage of the amplifiers. So your amp is 1200w rms: 1200/12= 100 amps. To your issue, you should do the big 3 upgrade and check ALL of your connections. Make sure the battery is fully charged as well.
-
I think you need to check your wire to ensure there are no shorts anywhere. The sheath could have been cut or pinched somehow. Another notable thing to check would be your grounds. Make sure they are tight and clean.

I used 8 Gauge wire with a 80 AMP Fuse to push a 1500 Watt amp. My fuse holder melted before my fuse blew. Well Dan that's because you used wire too small to carry the needed current, that caused resistance and heat. This could be his problem as well.
-
Since the wire is melted after the fuse, I can only imagine a short circuit somewhere between the fuse holder and amplifiers. EDIT: I would disconnect the power wire until you figure out what is going on unless you wish to replace your equipment or worse.

The crossover is fixed @80hz, I do believe that means nothing under 80hz gets through.

Good Ground?
Jason Witt replied to sweendog's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
I see what you are saying, but it would be best to drill a hole and run directly to the frame. Be sure to use a good grommet, and you wont have any issues. -
I would personally get the alternator first. I like the idea of having sufficient electrical going into a project.
-
Nice start.

Grounding idea
Jason Witt replied to NighthawkFG's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Surely you have strut bolts in your trunk. What kind of car is this? -
Grounding idea
Jason Witt replied to NighthawkFG's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
There are still many good places to bolt your grounds. I think it's worth looking over before trying this idea out. -
My system?, yep. Subs in the backseat?, yep.
Jason Witt replied to Truconcept's topic in Photography
having my amps screwed 2 that fold down part is bad? idk where else 2 put them, the box takes the entire trunk If you want your backseat functional, make sure the amps will clear the subs when you fold the seat back up before you mount anything. -
I have seen this happen when a short circuit occurs, or when using wire too small for current demands.
