1999 Rockford Fosgate Punch 800a4 Amp Dyno Test

[@indopleaser]

what about doing a comparison video between old school and new school amps? things like part quality, heat sink, sound quality, wattage, stable ohm loads, reliability, cost, how and why they changed over the years. just in your general opinion to show us what makes these amps so great

I really like your videos of all your oldschool - RF- Amps! Thanks for that. Today i also have a small collection of: 200DSM, 200 ix, 2 x power 250M, 60ix , 60X2, 40ix , 500a2 and some Punch status displays. Im proud of owning two of the 250M from around 1996, one was blown and smoking , but it took me less than 10$ of spareparts to fix it. Now they work like new. when you link these beasts, you have 1945 watts on 2 ohms!! In 1995 the punch 40ix was my first " real " amp ( 699 german marks ) and i had it running on 2 ohms mono ( two eminence ECV10 in pushpull ) for several years - no problems at all. I found an older article of an audio magazine from italy where they did some tests with the power 50M and power 250M. They had the power 50M running at 0.125 ohm, that were 32 10" woofers. I am still surprised how clean and powerful the punch 60 sounds today. I use them for bluetooth-toolbox-boombox-projects :-) They easily outperform the expensive-boombox-stuff available today, but you need a big battery! Do you know if the 200 DSM has a little more power than the 200 ix? The specs say 400 watts mono 4 ohms with 11.9 battery volts . the newer 200 ix is also 400 Watts 4 ohms mono, but specified at 12.6 battery volts. should not be a big difference.. Greetings from germany :-)

[@abe4781]

Man I start out with a RF 40ix didn't know what I had until I started to see the black and grey ones. Came up on another older rf amp for tweeters and then 2 years later I found the greyand bronze 50.2 and a power 250.1 I loved those amps so cool looking and rhey took everything I throw at them. When I had off time during college I would just go in the stereos shops in the bay area and just look at all the stuff they had back then all made Un usa power. Miss those days saved up money for gas and beats. I had to do all the installs myself so I they were crude but did the job. Old school RF forever trying to find a 800.4 to put in my convertible to run components loud. 😅

Love your stuff, D. "Oooold schoooool". I have a soft side for RF. That's the brand that started it for me back in '98. I remember a 120a2 would rattle my buddy's Tiburon apart when testing my two 12" Kicker FreeAir subs. That was some tight bass for such a small amp. He also had a JVC El Kameleon head unit. It was cool, hah! Ahh, good times! Now I got two chrome Punch 500.2 from '98. One has the original receipt for $1399.95. That's CRAZY!

Wish you could have ran it with the wired remote. All I done was plug it in, and run it to the front. I could barely turn it half way, no changes to any settings. Question, this was one of a few amps I could reverse bridge, others would go into safety mode. What happens when you reverse bridge, when several people seen how it was bridged, they would sort of freak out, saying I was going to burn it up.

The "22" watt RMS per channel head units, or at least Pioneer, are only 14w RMS per channel clean

[@hgwaterous]

12 volts to the power supply should result in 36 watts max at the 4 ohm speaker before clipping. Assume 70% efficiency and the rms wattage should be about 18 watts. A better chip amp design should yield that 22 watts rms.

hey big d I just got one of these amps that was never even used. the punch knob on the rear channel fell off but I am using it for my mids and highs. the amp runs super hot much hotter than my hcca 5000.1d I added a fan lowered the gains more and it seems fine now. I know that is probably operating temperature because I have heard they run hot. very impressed with the results. I have mine on 4 re audio xxx 6.5s and they scream.

hi you can made a dynoamp of soundigital 800.4 4 ohms? thanks

[@STEVEWONDA1976]

Great vid man! What do you feel a 600a5 in perfect working condition and nearly mint condition is worth these days? Complete with both end caps of course and the info sticker on the bottom of the amp is still like new. Also on a side note, the measurements in that brochure don't include the end caps. My 600.a5 is 18 1/8" at the widest point(bottom).

[@wal]

Prob around 200

[@hernandezeric0687]

bro will you test the rockford Fosgate punch p250.2 the one with all the settings terminals rca inputs etc. that are one front of the amp I want to know how much that amp really puts out

[@rosanialberti8949]

Do you know why they change the Power 1100a2 name to Power 1000a2? It is the same amp, right? And do you know Maverick Street amp (HZ1000 model)??

[@Broxine]

you found ut why the change ?

[@firebirdude2]

hahaha I ran this amp and a bd1000a1 back in....2000? Good shit.

[@pepe58pepito54]

can this b bridge to a 4 ohm sub.. to get the max power

[@iandilag5425]

I have 800 punch a4 i bridged it to power my 300rms subwoofers but i still got weak power what should I do. ? Please help. I connected the sub Rca to channel 3 and 4.

[@it8645]

man just put 1 of rca not 2 coz you bridge it

[@adammetcalfe2180]

Hello, will a RF 800a2 amp be enuf to push a 15" Orion HCCA with about 2000 rms?

[@wal]

It would push it, just not anywhere close to the sub’s limits

[@stresstested]

Wassup!? Did you ever by chance do a PPI PC2600 chrome dome? I looked but didn't see one. Thinking about getting rid of mine but not sure.. A dyno might change my mind

[@wal]

+stresstest no sir, have not, but I'm always getting in different amps to test, so stay tuned, you never know 😊

[@travisj.1938]

I love Fosgate amps but Im not sold on their Subs what do ya'll think?

[@wal]

HiFiVega really liked the P3 12 in his 12” sub round up

[@travisj.1938]

Yeah I have been hearing lots of good things bout the P3 as well. I guess I'll have to check out Hi Fi Vega's video! Thanks for the plug.

[@SHAYDEE3]

Have the 200a4 and 500a2...beast..

[@kingmassey3488]

I have the Rockford Fosgate punch 800a4 & the punch 200ix. any suggestions for a system build? subs, mid bass & ranges & highs. going to put it in a 2014 Chevy cruz Eco

[@wal]

+Robert Massey I would not be the person who can answer this question. Someone who installs daily and knows current products would be a much better source.

[@kingmassey3488]

Cool, thanks bro. Keep making your videos, very informative.

[@elixir220]

do you by any chance have a rf 800 a2 laying around you could test?

[@wal]

The one I have needs work

[@trickheaddd]

BigDWiz I have one but one of the rca’s inputs is loose sometimes you have to wiggle it to get both subs to play but other than that it’s fine if you want to work something out I can send it to you to test .

[@chairsboy144]

@BigDwiz: love ur videos i have a big ? That im not real sure about. I have 2 punch 800a2 power 4 10" alpine type R dvc2ohm. Punch 800a4 powering 4sets of 6.5 jbl gto an 600a4 powering 4 4" an 4 3.5 jbl gto. What im needing to know is batteries u would recommend for this size system . Starting battery plus second if needed. Please help stuck at a stand still.

[@tophatjimmy77]

Does anyone know the main differences between the Punch 800a4 and the Power 800a4? I can't seem to find the answer anywhere.

[@jp1087]

They are both rated for the same power output, but the Power series of amps have a much better crossover system and don't have high level inputs. They are geared more towards precise SQ performance and were mainly seen in competition vehicles or bought by people with money who wanted amazing sound quality. The Punch series, while no slouch, was for the teenagers. Also, with the Power series of the same gen, you could get the Power 1100a2 or 1000a2, which were "rated" at 1400 x1 into 4ohms of clean A/B power.

[@it8645]

appreciate man from Philippines with second gen punch 800.4

[@666hobart]

BigDWiz Would this amp happen to be for sale sir?

[@cubanman2009]
