Thoughts on this amp please

[>>SQL<< 10+ year member]

I did some trading and ended up with this amp

Rockford T10001bd

I picked it up to ran a pair of Skar 12's

I will be running it at 1 ohm

I have good electrical (big 3, HO Alt)

The person I got it from said the Birth Sheet said it did 1,500 watts @ 1 but he did not include that with the amp.

I was going to run an AP 1300 but sold that when i got this amp.

I will say this thing has some weight to it, the AP boxed for shipping was just over 6.5LBS

This amp by itself weights just under 16.5LBS

Anyway what do you think I will get out of this amp and do you think it is a solid piece.

Thanks everyone.

The monos do more than rated...it has been proved by several people and they are $110 or less...for the price they are plenty stout.

I didn't list what I traded for the amp.

What I traded was BNIB and sells for $300 at the store

I got it as part of a larger deal so am not really sure how much I have into it.

So does anyone know what kind of power I should expect from this amp at 1 ohm?

Probably closer to 1400@1+ if you can maintain voltage.

It will be alot cleaner too than that AP.

Much better than the AP amp...you'll get damn near twice the power out of it.

I did some research on the amp on a few other forums and 1,400 seems about right.

That is perfect as I really want to give around 700 to each of my Skar's.

Now I just need to make sure my electrical is good enough.

I am bypassing the ELD in my Honda, installing an HO Alt, Big 3 is done, and have voltmeter monitoring the rear dist block installed in the dash.

I am installing the amp most likely monday unless my Box Shows up here Friday.

Thanks for the answers.

if your electrical can hold at 14.4 i would say minimum of 1200 watts after rise.
