Overview

With its super efficient Class-BD circuit topology, the P1000X1bd assures maximum BOOM for your buck! Due to its dedicated low frequency response, this amplifier is optimized for mid-bass speakers or subwoofers only. No need to worry because its 1-ohm capability will drive a pair of 4-ohm DVC subwoofers or quad-configuration of 2-ohm DVC subwoofers with ease.

Awesome Amp

I have this Amp powering 2 P3-D412's on a 1 Ohm load and wow this thing pushes them with no distortion and full low deep rich bass. My birth sheet reads 1489 watts at 1 Ohm so plenty of power this amp is worth every penny.

Perfect for 15s

I recently purchased a P1000X1bd, 2 P3D4-15s and couldn't be happier. I've been a fan of Rockford Fosgate since the early 1990s and it's great to see that the legend lives on, especially in my car
