Rockford Fosgate 1501bd Amplifiers

DESCRIPTION

Rockford Fosgate makes it simple to optimize the 1501bd's output for your system. Use the variable low-pass crossover (50-250 Hz at 24 dB per octave) to tailor the bass to your particular sub/enclosure combination; the subsonic filter eliminates inaudible, ultra-low frequencies (below 20 Hz) that can rob your system of efficiency.

750 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms
1500 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms
Class bd technology
requires 4-gauge power and ground leads and a 150-amp fuse and fuse holder wiring and hardware not included with amplifier
selectable 50-250 Hz variable low-pass crossover, 24 dB/octave
MEHSA mounting technology increases the heat transfer from the MOSFET output devices to the heat sink, for higher power output, lower operating temperatures, and greater reliability
TOPAZ noise-killing differential inputs eliminate 80% of ground loop noise
preamp outputs for easy connection to a second amplifier
wired remote control of Punch Bass (0-18 dB centered at 45 Hz) gives you fingertip control of your bass impact
subsonic filter removes frequencies below the range of human hearing for increased efficiency
bd Sync allows two identical Class bd amps to be tied together to power one woofer (using an optional cable)
17-1/8"W x 2-3/8"H x 9-7/8"D

Strength:

Clear, powerful bass that is out of this world.

Weakness:

Makes you buy other accessories costing you more money such as bigger battery with more cranking amps, better alternator, and a strong capacitor, which cost altogether another couple hundred dollars.

I have this amp hooked up to 2 - 12" Kicker L7's in a sealed box in a 1997 pontiac firebird. This is hands down, the best bass creation I have ever heard. When pushed at 75%, my back window sounds like it is going to break. I have invested $200 in dynamat xtreme and still can't get out all the rattle. This amp creates the beefiest bass you will here. I totally recommend this amp. It is moderately priced at just over $500. However, you will not be disappointed. You will need a bigger battery though : )

Strength:

Can push your subs to the sky! Neon power light is cool too. Stays very cool considering its performance.

Weakness:

Needs more capacited energy than the manual states (1.5f). OR maybe i'm just using a sh*tty cap, never tried Kole Audio before. In the cap manual it calls for 1.0F per 500w of impedence (3.0F for 1500w).

Just got this amp put in day before yesterday with 2 12" hx2 subs and a 1.5f kole audio cap. G*d d*mn this b*tch pushes hard as f***. Bad part is my KA capacitor gets drained during heavy hits, need to get a 3.0f i guess Very tight amp.
