It's been a while.... I'm looking to put together something small on a budget. I keep coming to the Rockford prime Amps and was curious about their quality. Can anyone comment on these? Also open to suggestions for a 300-500wrms amp for around $125.
Most people here will hate on them, but I've had great luck out of my little 1,200W Prime amp.It's been a while.... I'm looking to put together something small on a budget.

I agree all of Rockford's current amps Prime, Punch, and of course Power are pretty solid and do rated power.Most people here will hate on them, but I've had great luck out of my little 1,200W Prime amp.
They're over priced though for what they are imo. The Power series is also wwaaayyyy over hyped and way too stupid expensive.I agree all of Rockford's current amps Prime, Punch, and of course Power are pretty solid and do rated power.
They are high but so is JL and some others. The power series to to rich for my blood but a constant power amp isn't going to be cheap.They're over priced though for what they are imo. The Power series is also wwaaayyyy over hyped and way too stupid expensive.
Why not compare them?RF's utility doesn't lie in its power at lower ohm loads. Show me another 2500W amp that only loses ~40% of power output when impedance rises to 4 ohms from 1ohm? I'm not saying BDCPs are worth it to most people, but I don't believe comparing them to an amp ran at 1 and .7 respectfully is a fair comparison.
As far as prime I only played with one and it was ok. There's definitely more value to be had elsewhere as imo there's nothing special about the prime line, but they are solid little amps.
These amps to which you're comparing BDCPs, what do they typically put out at 2.8 ohms?Why not compare them? They gain a few hindered watts depending on amp and lose 10% more efficency. Sounds a lot like dropping to .7 to me
No idea. No telling what the RF does either when it's not a 10% THD dynamic birth sheet.These amps to which you're comparing BDCPs, what do they typically put out at 2.8 ohms?
If you happen to know of someone with an amp dyno local to me I'll drop it off to be tested. No birth sheet claims here just straight ratings from their website. I'm curious have you ever used a CP amp?No idea. No telling what the RF does either when it's not a 10% THD dynamic birth sheet.
