#5085, "Best Buy's New Deal... Rockford Fosgates.."
Jan-20-03 05:36 PM by Jarrad_GST

          

:D Went to Best Buy and ask the guy about the Rockford Fosgates. He said they hit hard and work well. He had a pair of Fosgates subs as well. So.. yah screw the Xplods. I wont get any Xpold stereo shit. But What about the Rockford Fosgate Sale.....

2 12' subs 400 watt, w/ box and 400 watt Fosgate Ampilfier for $290 Installed?

If I get 2 10 subs, its then $260.


And if this sux, I will just buy my system peice by peice. Circuit City is doing all major brand subs buy one get the next sub %75 off. So.. I might just get some Alpines, Polk Audio, or JL.

Thxs for help... You are surely contributing to my DSM.

I looked at it seems to be the RF 200M (the ad says 400 watts MAX power, so it's probably 200 rms). I would try to get a better amp than that if you can.

Well, as you might know, I work for Circuit City.

Personally, I feel that Rockford has lost a lot in quality, since they have exploded into the large company that they are today. Back a few years ago, they were the sh*t. Many of my friends compete with Rockford, but you do not see them as much as you used to.

Good luck to you and don't buy something because they will give you free install. Buy what sounds good to you. Listen to the different subs. If you go to Circuit City, they will put the subs in your car and let you listen to them.

Good luck to ya!

audiophyl rocks. emoji i agree completly.

the xplode stuff sounds better than that deal (BTW...i used to work at best buy). CC is better in customer service, product, install, and general proffesionalism (wow i cant spell, LOL).

read my other post in response to the xplode deal to see what i think about budget systems.

:shhh: i do cocaine :/shhh:
