Rockford Fosgate....... Need I Say More?
Nothing can beat the quality of a Rockford Fosgate amplifier. I have a friend running two 12" subs with a 2000 watt amp. To make a short story shorter, my one 10" Rockford sub running on a 500 watt Rockford amp hits harder than his (2) 12's with absolutely no distortion what so ever. I have the gain set just under 5 for clean out.Also, Rockford includes a data cable and a volume knob to install anywhere on your dash so you can conveniently control the Punch EQ from your drivers seat when listening to music recorded at different levels.Like I said, nothing beats a Rockford Fosgate amplifier, or speakers for that matter. Once you go Rockford Fosgate, you wont go back.

Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2016
SETUP:
My setup for this install included this Rockford Fosgate R500X1D (620w RMS) amp and a single 10" Alpine Type R (4ohm) sub installed in an Atrend 10" (10SAL) box with .71 cubic feet of internal volume - just within spec (.50 - .75 cf) and light (relatively speaking). I was able to get an 8 gauge Kicker amp kit with interconnects (RCA cables) and got a PAC LOC (line output converter) so I could retain my factory 6.2" touch screen. I put Alpine SPS 610c (6.5" Type S speakers and tweeters) up front and Alpine 610 (6.5" speakers) in the rear doors. This was all installed in my '16 WRX.

WHY THESE COMPONENTS?
I didn't want to add a lot of weight and I wanted the cleanest bass I could get for the money. I've done 50+ installs both professionally and for fun. I enjoy it and I also like doing my own research and finding out what I think will be best instead of listening to "experts". It's more of a challenge for me. Will I add another amp for the component speakers? Yes, but later. For now I have mods to focus on and just need a decent sound. The factory speakers from Subaru were complete garbage but the head unit is good.

AMP REVIEW:
This amp is strong and hasn't shut down or overheated once. My old JL Slash amp was great but was sold with an old car and my Alpine pdx (1,000w amp) was sold last year before I bought my new car. I would say this amp stacks up very well to the PDX. It's surprisingly small but has plenty of power. I have the gain at 3. I have the bass boost at 1 and the bass is tight and fairly clean. Is it as responsive as the JL amps with JL subs? No. But does it hit hard and sound clean? Yes. Is it worth the money? Absolutely. It flat out performs and for under $130, it's a great deal. The reviews here say it all. This is a great amp.

CONCLUSION:
My total investment into this system was just $380 and the system sounds great. I listen to Trap mostly - lots of bass, lots of drops and lots of fast-paced hits - this amp handles all of that pretty well.

I highly recommend this amp if you want a good sound for a great price. It really is the best one for the money in my opinion. If you are new to amps, look no further, this is the one you want. Rockford Fosgate has been around for a long time in this game and they have always made quality amps - this is no exception and may be the best "budget" amp ever made.

Reviewed in Mexico on January 12, 2018
En verdad te da la potencia que anuncia, hazte un favor a ti y a tu subwoofer y no compres un amplificador boss que promete 10,000 watts y te entrega 200, puede que no te sorprenda tanto los watts que promete este amplificador pero ya en la practica veras que es mil veces mejor tener un amplificador de buena calidad que uno que solo prometa mucha potencia lo recomiendo ampliamente.

Lo traigo conectado a un subwoofer JL de 12" y el solo hace retumbar todo mi carro sin problemas! (Civic 2016).
