Hey everyone, I am new to this place so I guess I should say hello! The names Matt and I drive a Dodge Magnum RT.
I am looking into buying a sound system for it. This is what I am thinking about so far:
2 - Rockford Fosgate T212D2 subwoofers
1 - Rockford Fosgate Power T20001bd amplifier (for subs)
2 - Rockford Fosgate T162S Components (purchased)
1 - Rockford Fosgate 3SIXTY.1 OEM Interface (purchased)
My question is what amp would be best suited to power my speakers and will the T20001BD amplifier be enough juice for the 2 Rockford 12's?
Thank you for any inquiry as to where I should move on through my quest for a siiiiiick sound system
Heres a couple shots I got of my Magnum:

Thanks everyone,
Matt

Are you really stuck on RF? They really aren't that great of a brand. There is much better for the money.

What is your price range, and are you looking to get SPL or SQ?

Just a question here, but do you realize that running 2000+ rms you will need to upgrade your electrical system?? Once you reach the 1000rms area, that is around the area you will need to upgrade everything. To upgrade your electrical system.... that is going to cost in the area of $500 alone if you get good quality equipment and install it yourself. I think that RF's stuff is good but is high priced for what it is. Soo, what are you looking to spend and what is your goal with your car??

500 wRMS and above you should at the bare minimum upgrade your battery.

and probably the big 3...

I'm to tired to look at all the specs on that equiment, but like they already mentioned its going to cost a crap load to get the electrial system up to par, but if your not strapped for cash then by all means go for it... I'd still look for better gear though...

the only rockford stuff i would have would be the rockford 360. the other stuff is a bunch of over priced crap.

Welcome to the forum!
I would agree with the other guys on the brand. Post some goals and a budget for your system and we can get you setup with some good equipment!
