nothing I got this amp back in high school 4 years ago. I had two He2 and blew them out about 3 month later. I match my subs and amp up to match. My fault, after that i wanted the P3 but got talked into the Alpine Type R's. Im a RF fan but it's sad to say i love my alpines. Ive had them for 3 years and beat the sh#t out of them in the summer. anyway back to the amp. Out of all my friends im the only RF fan and after having this amp i will only buy RF. Ive seen many friends switch amps over the years because of problems but i don't have any. Two years ago I let a buddy of mine use my amp to test his new subs big mistake on my part. We have put many systems together and never had a problem. But when my friend started his truck the smoke rolled outta my amp. I was pissed becuase i knew my amp was fried. I still run the same amp and i don't have any problems. I dont know what went wrong that day but i can tell you this is my RF801s had been beatin to sh#t and still works i will never give this amp up until it goes. I currenty have two 12 Type R's and am looking to upgrade but this amp is coming along for the ride because i know it will perform well even if its 5 years old Similar Products Used: buddy has a 500.a2 from late 90's briged to 1 ohm and still going today in 2008. Rockford is the only amp i will buy!!! |

Strength:
powerhouse of an amp
Weakness:
its not weak This amp is worth every penny you spend on it. I have it hooked up at 2ohms bridged for 2 kove armagedon z series 12's. This amp pushes the subs to thier max excursion effortlessly. Specs are seriously underated so give it a try. |

Punch 801s
Strength:
Huge amount of power. Awesome looks. Remote bass knob. Glowing logo.
Weakness:
None really This amp is sweet. It not only looks good, put it provides some serious power. I have it pushing two Rockford HX 2 12's, and they hit hard. Amp is rated for 800 watts RMS at two ohms, but that is an underestimate. My card said it tested at 996 RMS!!! Wow. Similar Products Used: Sony XPlod |

rockford 801 s
Strength:
nice power load,cool design, rockford reliability, small compared to other 800 watt amps ive had in the past
Weakness:
it is rather annoying to get out the little bit head to adjust the gain and frequency. this amp is hot, its powering my 2 kicker l5 12 inch subs to their rms no prob it makes then hit so hard my hat moves on my head,the windows and the trunk pound, its a great amp , it lacks a fan to cool it but if u mount it in the proper place it'll stay cool, it has a cool design and the red glowing logo on the front is a nice touch Similar Products Used: kicker kx 600.4, |
