Why is it worth so much for a 2x175wrms amp?

and it only bridges to 2ohms

I dont know how much they are "worth" but paying that much seems a little silly to start with for those power figures?

Just wondering cause im looking for something around 2x 200 rms but im not payin over $500 for it, I accept the fact that rockford are rockford

its a two channel, realistically expect it to run at around 230x2@4OHMS, its a rockford and they always underrate their amplifiers by minimum 15-20%...

comparison to $350 jaycar amplifier:

2x150@4OHMS

1x484@2OHMS

this is a rockford, the potential is there as stated by the birth sheet, nearly 900RMS@4ohms! thats 4ohms! and its not a dedicated monoblock sub amplifier. its rockford, its a quality amplifier. check out the RRP of the amp then draw your own conclusions.

IMO the price reflects the quality, so deal with it.

Im really sorry XSKAPE for wrecking thread but just had to say to ultim8DTM5...

say your 2x175 amp is 2x230rms then @4ohms $1300

thats 460wrms x1 @ 4ohms not 900

If the amp was 100% efficient 920w rms @2ohms x1

good distortion not sure on damping factor..

Jaycar 0435 4x100rms into 4 ohms $499 new

thats 2x200wrms @4ohms

thats 1x400wrms @4ohms

say 75% efficiency 1x400wrms @2ohms 600wrms x1

good distortion good damping factor

U could buy 2 jaycar 600w amps for a $1000 1200w

or RF realistically 800w or less for $1300

Hey im only going by electronics calc view what im trying to find out is whether that RF is worth $1300 new or not,

cheers mac

Notta Problem Mac.

But I just want to add one thing . "You can't compare gold with bronze; They're simply not in the same class."

Motor Magazine did it once comparing a 208KW R34 GTR with a 300KW Dunnydore. Which one preformed better and handeled better and had better times and most of all sheer POWER. A classic example of comparing Gold With Bronze.

BTW: Just for the record: I read the birth sheet again and its 887w RMS bridge @ 2ohms not 4ohms (Sorry for any inconveinience)

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
