[QUOTE="jonB, post: 296074, member: 548994"] Yea...Rockford fosgate amps are great...if you want to light a cigarette. heh 200Xi is garbage, I know 1) either you have a bad sense of humor, or 2) you have no clue as to what you're talking about. Either way you continue digging a deeper hole for yourself to crawl out of. But, if you do persist... Xtant 600TI Elemental Designs 12A subwoofer CDT ES components PPI 2240 Phoenix gold parametric EQ the 200xi asides from being an ugly looking brick is very well indeed the top amp of the fosgate line, if you consider top of a heap of shit as being good. Fosgate has 3 lines of amps...shittiest, shitty, and shit. If you are regarding 200xi as the SHIT liine then yes its one of Fosgates better products, relatively speaking. As for this amp coming close to any of Xtant, Sound stream, eclipse, or even jl audio amps etc..
