Powering Up a Rockford Fosgate T2500.1 bd - LED's

[907tacokid]

hey meade! what volt does fosgate get there info at? i see alot of companys do it at 14.4 volts, witch is what most of us can produce from our alts. but i have seen a few that get there shit at 18 volts! such as DC (only one off top of my head) you say they make 3300 rms, so what kinda voltage are you gunna have to give them to get that power?

[EpiccampKiller]

what do you guys think of alpine type R's?

[907tacokid]

@EpiccampKiller best buy shit! dont waist your money! so much better out there for cheeper!

[TheJrod79]

Rockford amps are the shizz! Well worth the money don't waste time and money get fosgate!!

[WillieC42]

thats fucking crazy man! i just installed 2 12" subs with a 3000watt menace class d amp in the back of my crew cab f150 and i thought that shit was loud.... thats not the case...... hahahah your shits going to be hoppin off the ground.. idk how you dont crack your windows ive seen systems half the size of yours break glass..

[BassLightDark]

rockford is over priced on their amps but make good amps

[MrSimson0606]

@bishop628

PowerSync - allows 2 amplifiers to be "strapped" together

[ABOUT32NIXONS]

[154kalata]

Yo you wana come to Texas and put a bad ass system in my Ford Expedition haha

[xXSOTXxKING]

[BoostTheBass]

[Crowmagnum93bham]

do u have any videos or any experience w/ the t1500bd? i wish i could afford one of those t2500's, but i gotta keep it real

[bonsang928]

Do you need alot of power to run these?

[XxGosteyxX]

@bonsang928 ya you need alot of power. like in my car im gonna have to have 3 batteries and a 270 amp alt

[Holmbonden96]

[tinkie541]

[juliaopetrukio17]

Moro aqui no brasil, como faço para comprar esse aplificador e woofers da fi?e quanto custa?

[wishbone1100]

[carloslivinloud]

[BoostTheBass]

[bigtimer78]

[meade916]

@ryanjosephdarby what the hell are you talking about

[ryanjosephdarby]

@meade916 i see now never mind

[ownagedonkey008]

Hey man, ur gear is sick, do you know if the T1000-1bd amp ahs the same led as this amp?

[lameristotel]

Is this amp really pushing 2500 ?

[ch3ko14]

Hey Steve ill give you $700 for that T4000

[jguerra420]

i wish i could afford getting a second one got lucky with my first :[

[331blackout]

can i use one of this amps to run 2 re audio MX?

[felipeaugusto2204]

I am Brazilian and I wonder if there is any difference between frontal and side duct. I'm making a vented box and the box is not deep enough to put the port and do not want a bent shaft. I'll put in the box two JL Audio 12W0

[herosquad]

i just laugh at the wife yelling at your dog haha wana send me that old amp meade?

=]

[bishop628]

how do you hook two amps to one sub? if you dont mind me asking.

[elsnoopy413]

@bishop628 If it is a dual voice coil sub, you can run an amp to each voice coil.

[BassHead3937]

@bishop628

the only way to connect two amplifiers to one sub, is to have a dual voice coil subwoofer. if you dont have a dual voice coil sub, it cannot be done.

if you have a dual voice coil sub, you need to run one set of speaker wires to one coil, and another set to the other coil. both of your amps should be the same brand and model number. also you need to make sure that the subwoofer that you are using has the proper impedance for the amps you are using

[crazywin99669]

@bishop628 1 amp on each voice coil

[iFrostyyy]

My grandpa is Jim Fosgate

[xboxmachine]

So hot that your amp is set after an hour playing?

[jguerra420]

@xboxmachine means never even hot with voltage drops to 10 volts all damn day lol

[Olskoolbeats]

@BergyBerg1103004 Depending on you car, I wouldn't get a cap. All they do is harm your system. Depending on your car, hit up Mechman(dot)com. A new battery, alternator, and big three and you would be set. If your strpped for cash, an new alt and big three would be fine.

[biglou622]

yo steve how do you have that little table set up powered? is the little power cell wired to a car charger or something?

[EG310SG]

i just bought a T1500.1 BD-CP, and it doesn't have the LEDs. shouldn't it?

[racerxgt1]

dude u bought 8 of these? Can i borrow some money? lol

[playaash4]

@racerxgt1 i could be wrong but bcuz he is sponsored by RF they probably either discount him a shit ton or just provide him with most of his equipment for free.

[SuperchargedStyle]

Steave do you have any motorized headunits you wanna sell? Nothing fancy but still needs to sound good and put out some volts for the system. Message me if you do.

[mdGObcKIDS14]

is everything you have rockfords??

[deyroo]

how mutch coust that amp in U.S.A?? 

[Olskoolbeats]

@deyroo Depending on where you get it around $930 to $1100.

[drjd2real]

It's supposed to be smaller. It's not a 4000 watt amp.

[jfo420]

is that an hx2 right at the beggining of the video?

[oc0dyc]

@jfo420 Yeah, it's a 10" HX2

[crazymoafaka]

hey steave how much was the 4000 watt amp

[SergeantPope]

Everytime i watch this it sounds like you don't like the amp. Do you like it? Are you not impressed by the LEDs on it?

[AdamTheAudioMan]

what camera do u use

[kylevh20]

too bad all these amps are under the box and you wont get to look at them

[meade916]

@kylevh20 6 of 11 are showing...only 4 are completely hidden. It sucks but i have so much power i gotta put it somewhere LOL !

[juniorchavy]

@meade916

[bl4h1]

can you get me a discount on two T2500-1bdCP

[meade916]

@bl4h1 probably not, hit up your local dealer and see what they can do for u though!

[bl4h1]

@meade916 k cool, just checkin. RF should hook you up with some sort of affiliate account, cause your chan inspired me to buy. Take it easy bro

[futurekawwechamp]

@meade916 HE DUDE YOU DIN'T REPLIED ME.

[WeAreTwoDoorsDown]

@futurekawwechamp Why the hell should he?! Dont cry if he hates you!

[futurekawwechamp]

@WeAreTwoDoorsDown why the blady hell r u poking ur nose in.stay out of any ones business.and about the liking part i am not blady proposing him.

[JMoore4291]

@meade916 how long you think it'll be before you upgrade amps? on ur forum there's 2 for sale but 700 is a little much for me, you think when you get rid of yours it'll be more like 5-600?

[sakeebforlife]

does this amp need to to be fused near the amp to provide an external fuse?

[meade916]

@sakeebforlife i fuse at the batteries.....anywhere else is pointless.

[sakeebforlife]

@meade916 i just picked up an Hifonics Brz2400.1D and the manual says the amp requires a 250amp external fuse. Do i need to fuse it near the battery, or is it the same as the T2500-1BD and doesnt really need fusing at the batteery?

[damiandrifts]

@meade916 within 18" of the battery or closer right? thats what ive been tought

[SuperBillabong94]

where can i get a cheap one

[KC90MC3]

Hey Steve, hopefully you see this and give me some info seeing as you have a ton of these. My T2500 has a squeal coming from it most of the time, and sometimes it migrates to my door speakers that run off a T4004. I've tried new ground locations but it seems weird how the squeal is coming from the amp itself. It has been like that since I first hooked it up, it works fine, just a loud annoying squeal...

[jguerra420]

i love my t25001bd cant believe how much power it dumps on my subs for such a small amp i feel like its at least twice the power of my old t20001bd

[markerandCANSreviews]

hey steve im thinking about getting some rockford

im thinking about power

whats better power or punch?

[multisteven18]

hey jennchris55 think b4 you post rude ass comments like that k? now im sure considering the size of the the system the guy who posted the vid has he can afford to put in Plexiglass or somethin maybe the guy you was bitchin at couldnt hmmm use your brain bud

[meade916]

actually jennchriss has a point.  That guy is lying his ass off LOL

[newmanto03]

@ 0:03 is that a power hx2?

[jguerra420]

yo does any one now if these come with the bass knob

[finddavid7]

wow i remember i had a bd 1000 in my car hook up to some 12 inch power they broke my front windshield but that is nothing compared to what you got

[jennchris55]

so if its nothing comapred to what he has how in the fuck did it brake your windhield and NOT his!!!?

[meade916]

he didnt break his windshield with 1000 watts and some 12 inch power LOL - thats why. That shit is harder to do then people think.

[r40941]

how much did this cost to get one cause i want one for my 18 i am geting

[Gr8sk8terboi]

1499$

[amkbeastly]

Steve your quite a man dude, i love your whips there sick as hell man i think you should feel special because like one of those fosgate amps are like 2000 dollars lol you must be rich as hell cuz i could never afford that lol but did your fucking great! by the way i want wanna them hats lol j/k but SMD ON BRO!

[newmanto03]

maybe he got it at ebay

[lorenzenjo]

hook it up to that hx2 on da table

[thelordmasterraven]

benny61913, i have dealt with sony xplod, and my review, is bad sound quality, obviously cause its walmart, crunch is overated, and capacitors dont do shit lol sorry bro but i switched to fi in the last month and was blown away with my 18 bl, lol thats right im to poor for a btl steave, :/

[benny61913]

well i recently got a soundstream 2A capicitor i havent hooked it up yet because it frezzing outside. Should i get a different amp?

[thelordmasterraven]

@benny61913 crunch is overated and xplodes well only last you a little bit of time, sure it will bump like hell in a nice ported box, just private message me sometime

[benny61913]

So should i buy basiclly a whole new stereo system?

[thelordmasterraven]

no keep what you have for just simple beats in your car/truck/suv and save up for some good stuff like the smd woofers or maybe incriminator audio or fi woofers but hurry up your shit will blow lol

[benny61913]

@thelordmasterraven well im trying to save money but it comes and goes

[thelordmasterraven]

well good luckm man and if you need any help pm me bro

[benny61913]

alright thxs man

[MrLj410]

are u serious. ur kiddin right.

[thelordmasterraven]

yes im kidding? i guess or maybe im not

[MrLj410]

crunch makes very good amps dude.

[benny61913]

also how much you pay for that amp

[benny61913]

is 2 12" sony xplod with a 1400 watt crunch 4 Ch. Amp and a 2.0 farad cap a good sound system?

[benny61913]

nice

[kennyduehit]

I don't, for the slightest second, believe that your nigger ass can afford 8 of those....

Also physical SIZE has NOTHING at all to do with how much power an AMP can produce....

Your a fucking hick idiot..

[meade916]

who are you talking to? I know your not talking to me because if you are you are gonna be looking aweful foolish after looking at more of my vids. Actually i think you are talking to me so i will go ahead and call you a dipshit now - and keep the N word to the net, speaking like that in public might get you and your moms teeth kicked in just for teaching you that word.

[meade916]

i have 8 of those and they are all hooked up so NOW who is the fucking "hick idiot" hahahha ......go back to your trailor bro this is grown folks business here.

[portopaglia]

we... steve potresti dirmi come si collegano 2 batterie oltre quella originale e se ci vuole una batteria per amplificatore?...

[chiefdarklord69]

he runs 6600 watts rms to each 2500watt rms sub? wtf? am i missing something? lol

[FabioXrated]

how many of does can you put on 4 rockford T1(and T2) and how many batterys would it take Mr Meade?

[320bit]

Well its a good thing they are making smaller amps, i mean im sure it makes it easier for you to put 8 of them in your vehicle :) I got a T500-1bd and i was surprised at how small it is, but it puts out some power for its compact size.

[cglazer745]

I just got my t2500 and it's 3300 at 1 ohm and 2253 at 2 ohms can't wait to hook it up to my 15" BTL

[meade916]

a "double battery system" is a gross underestimation LOL!! watch more of my vids and report back :) :)

[kskate91]

Steve uses Fosgate amps. So far i only have a Punch 55.2 and older model Fosgate from 98. I thumps my 10's like nothing.

[2565marek]

holy shit how much did u spend money on ur system ?

[dumontdude10]

Steve how much are you selling your 4000.1 amps for?

[CToon123]

so is it 3300 watts per vc

[bub1360]

you paid almost 2000$ for just one.dam dude.

[713HTX713]

yea im in hawaii and everything should be more expensive out here due to shipping, but im gettin one for a thousand even! im so excited! lol and Steve's is 3300 RMS and the one im gettin is 3003 RMS :-/

[thetechnician22]

That amp is really compact and very powerful!

[cyerbyandmarge]

are hte windows in your tahoe stock

[DeadLegionProduction]

dam it looks sik wonder what 2 of these would run for my crx lol

[apwee]

i have the T-1500/1

this looks cooler with the led display :)

[edward1188]

sweet man they light up nice what u going to do with the old ones

[aajay602]

this maan iz da king of bass!!!!!!

[calvinblinkee]

Tommy Ho Problems is

[vettonator]

I gotta feelin those new amps are gonna strait MURDER those BTL's. If his electrical holds steady over 15 volts, each sub will be gettin around 7000 watts.

[jusgr808]

Sweet $1800 x 8 = $14400.

But of course Steve got the hookups!

I got just one of these for my pair of 15" T2s. Thinking of picking up another for a second pair of T2s.

[xregulatorx]

lol ~6600rms per btl..i wonder if the btls can handle it

[Yc530pride]

4 real huh. But Damn Look around the youtube when you plug a sub into a wall socket. SHIT DIDNT happen to the old btls cosmetic wise when others blow da fuck up

[astuddlee1]

if you figure the birthsheets of the amps are the same you should have a little over 30,000 watts, so with the 15.3 volt box you have do the amps put out even more power than for instance the 3300 watts that amp puts out, id think they measure at 14.4 volts

[calvinblinkee]

The highest one he has is just a little over 3300. The rest are around 3100-3200

[boxtrunk]

what happens to the old amps in ur truck?

[LotsOfPaypa]

im buying them lol hopefully he sells them i mean used or not there still badass

[wooferl7]

Hey Steve, this new settup will put the BTL's to the test, are you shure they will hold? But it will be fun to see how they do.Its always something new and keep doing what you do best.

[xFearlessGangstax]

contest contest !!!!!!!

[demchevyboyz]

yea i agree wit ct have a contest to give away those t4000bds cause u know u dont need them any more

[ctdv55]

You should totally have a contest to give those T4000bds if youre not doing anything else with them.

[06Crf250rider]

I like them but not for damn $1800 or whatever thats how much the 100.4 is

[Yc530pride]

You can pick them up on ebay for like 1000 brand new

[95probe16v]

DAMN thats about the price for an older T4000.

[Jakeanator12]

post some vids of u installing everything if u can

[richardmoeller]

WTF 8 of them would be 12000$

[L3G4LIZ3]

plus the 4 1000 watt amp and the 650 amp

[dennis170]

if you got a good job you can pay that without any problems and still have enought to spend for food ect^^

[carlopogii]

anyone know the title of the song?

[angelispimp12345]

Hey Steve what are you going to do with your Old Amps???

[jjkoens]

how many watts do you plan on putting to each FI BTL. i know they have a 2000 watt rms and a 4 or 5000 watt peak wouldnt 2 2500bd putting out 3300 rms be pushing it past its peak power?

[zachhudson]

well he has 1 t4000bd on each sub now so each sub is getting around 4200 rms now and those btls are fully loaded. just trust the "master steve"! He knows what he is doing

[Wannabe000]

Hey I could use a new amp my man....

nice vid bro have fun with that new stuff

[nextrider123]

do u buy all these amps and shit or did u get it for free through ur sponsorship?

[george881]

WHAT ARE U GONNA DO WITH THE OLD ONES?

[alanakadanger]

3300rms nooo en verdad 14volt ???? o 12 volt''

[dobrider]

god damn I think imma go buy one of these right now haha no im kidding but yea nice stuff steve keep bumpin those woofers

[fleming334]

damn man :) uer tahoe must be packing heavy :) cant wait to see these in action :) what about uer escalade? and uer honda? havent seen thows cars in a while

[74mikeg]

how many watts do the 18s hold (rms)?

[yoboynic]

his fi btl 18 inch subwoofers need 2000 to bump hard i think 2500 rms wats peak but dont hold me to it

[sparkscarz]

nice cant wait for the finish

[swiftwhipz]

are you puttn more subs in in da hoe danm

[pervitizm]

Hell my Kicker ZX 2500.1 was only outputting 2800 watts at full tilt. You're getting a good 800rms over the rated power. How is the efficiency on those compared to other known amps in that power class (i.e. Kicker, DAT, Soundown,...ect)?

[kuningmuda]

DAMMMMM STEVE!!!!

dont one of those amp (T2500.1 bd cost like 1, 000 dollars or more each??

and u got 8 of them?

shit, i wanna work where u work at man!

[St3aLtHyB3An3R]

sexxy! hurry up and start on the project i want to see how its going sound!!!

[BigJayDogg2009]

You KNOW you have to keep at LEAST one of them in plain sight.

[1791kiss]

[runtz52]

[oscar071005]

I cant wait to see the redo of the tahoe!!

[horeinator]

I love rockford fosgate but i wish they had lots of power at 2 ohms!
