Car Amp Basics: Build Quality

[Shadygang4life]

Wat the fuck why would they give a fake #.

Its a mono amp , its made for power not quality , also the cheaper amp looks like the components are spaced nicely while the rf has them all packed in to a tiny space , and that "vented" heat sink does sweet f all for the cooling its all about surface area not how preaty it looks , and while the fets maybe small that means nothing , fets in the same package can be totally dif ratings , in all you get what you pay for but just because the parts are "biefer" means nothing .

Cleaner more efficient amps makes subs last longer, go louder, with more control, more headroom and less likely to smoke a voice coil.

The RF has discrete surface mounting and better geometry, crucial. Shorter traces = more efficient amp with less noise. The RF has a 3 layer PCB. The other amp, a single layer PCB, less efficient.

The RF amp has probably 10 times the surface area on the cooling fins and FETs which are twice the size for much more stable performance.

That amp on the left looks like the work of Maxxonics(plastic end caps). The amp on the right? Well, its a Rockford Power amp. Nuff said.
