For the money you'd pay, you get much better equipment by other manufacturers.

rockford not ready known for sq...
but nonetheless,it's a pretty good brand.
of course,there r other brands out there too...
soundstream etc...
u can check ebay.com.my n search soundstream.
i saw some steals there.pretty cheap.

RF stuff is pretty godo but biased towards SPL... even the top end RF components I heard last time were comparable to mid-level stuff from otehr manufacturers and is more expensive than the top level stuff from others...

SO go figure

RF produce good amp and subs. other than that their Comp and HU.... you can have much better option for the price.

I am using Rockford Fosgate, Mid 6.5" for the front, Sub is 10" powered by 2 pieces of 2 channel amp P2002. HU unit i would say better go for others brand, I am using Nakamichi HU, and add in one 1.2Farad Cadence capacitor, they just perform nicely if u don intend to enter competition.

Stop listening to all talk n advises, go and do the actual audition of the products then u will know whether they are to your liking, if u don like them at least u still can opt for others brands.

Tohsan,

Issue is do you knwo where to go to listen to other stuff?

i've used some rockford shits .. their subs r great good sound but dunno bout those sq shits ..... amp underratted power so its definately good hahahahha... hu not sure but the high end ones i heard produce good sq and high voltage le .... comps sounds great better than alot of brands out there with the same price ... anyway Scouser stop comparing go on with a "four power HX2" for spl alrite hahahahahahhaha

RF stuff is good especially their amps and subs. If u wanted to have dynamic and speed go for it. It's produce good sq sound, but for the component, better look another brand. I use small power of rf amp, but it still produce powerful sound...

i do use full range of rockford stuff, all except the Hu n component. their component are quite good actualy, when we are talking about highest range of product, but the middle range n low range well, it snot that good actually. As for their subs and amplifiers are the best which i would want to regard it. Amplifier have very efficient way in handling powers, amp would not get hot even after u blast it for period of time, and the subs espcially the power or punch series produces deep,powerful bass. excursion limit is hig, and to reach its excursion limit, do need lots of mega power to drive it. Anyway, as for SQL its quite good, as the soudn od SQL bass is actually tuned from the cubical feet of the subwoofer enclosure, as well as the length of the port. The bass of the woofer could be tuned as well, by using the bass boost, and even better for all kind of sound range, if anybody knows a superb product from RF, EPX2. u can virtually tune the sound perfectlly. Anwyay this is my experience. If really for SQL, have to invest in one single woofer with selaed which i also regards as one of the best SQL woofer, JL Audio.
