Prime Time? Rockford Fosgate Prime R1200.1D Amp Dyno Test

Rockford Fosgate has been a leader in automotive amplifier technology since the 1980's. Their budget series, called Prime, offer many of Rockford's technologies in a price-conscious package. Today we are looking at the most powerful Prime amp, the 1200 watt monoblock R1200.1D.
The R1200.1D is rated to deliver:
400 watts RMS at 4 ohms
800 watts RMS at 2 ohms
1200 watts RMS at 1 ohm
Rockford promises their amplifiers are rated using CEA standards and the Prime series "typically" deliver 10-15% more than rated. Oh yeah? Let's see if this is da truf or is somebody blowin' smoke....

RF is one of the few companies that's been around for years, to still take pride in their products. Great vid

[@sadiqlewis8941]

I have been searching everywhere for an amp test for this amp and thanks to you I finally was able to see the potential of this amp. Now I know for sure that I am going to buy it.

[@24-7flounderproblem]

nice to know their IS a manufacturer you can still trust👍🙌🙌🙌thx BIG D!!!

[@bondovwvw]

When I was younger it was all about having the longest amp. Now that I'm old I like these amps with the small footprint. Thanks for testing out the smaller amps!

[@chrizizdaman]

Thanks for testing this amp Big D. I've been running 2 of these with 4x 12" P3's subs for about 2 years and it's such a great sounding setup. I'm still amazed how good it sounds and how loud it gets!

[@MrHalomaster8]

I love all your TH-cam videos on dyno test on amplifier and also like that you open them up so people could see I salute you 100%

[@collinbpeep]

Thanks very much for testing this amp. Been pushing 4 8s in my single cab Silverado for over a year now.

[@jacinshardlow2409]

I just love watching the dyno runs BigD. I've always been a big fan of Rockford Fosgate. Every system I've heard that run RF amps are all killers. Keep up the good work. 'I'm outta heeeeeeeere!!'

[@gpcaraudio]

RF has always made some excellent amps. Awesome performance on this budget amp.

[@Oldbass40]

Nice! I've noticed your videos are looking even more professional. Kudos for wanting to ensure your audience is seeing quality! I always enjoy watching!

[@vlLuck]

I'm About to cop this amp, thank you so much for this video and you review on amazon for this. I wanted to be 100% sure I wasn't going to be lied to by the manufacturers by how much RMS an amp can put out.

[@haydenskinner1379]

This really puts the quality of Rockford fosagte out there. I've considered buying this amp but I went with the prime 500 watt amp. I am not disappointed with it at all for 130$. With a birthsheet of 637 watts I would love to see what it would do on your Dyno.

[@donaldhiggs136]

I own the 1200 and love it... thanks for the testing

[@michaelws6247]

Thank you thank you BiG D, this amp has been on my mind the last few weeks but no1 had any recent tests. Back in 2001 I had two HE2 12s on a 800.2 with the old skewl Rockford headunit. Best sounding multi purpose system I ever built.

[@cajuncanewt]

Awesome, I was getting ready 2 buy two of these , one for each of my subs, but was unsure of the true power, thanks BigDWiz for this video/info.

[@workaholic7600]

WOW, Rockford is all power! Thank you for the vid Big D!!

[@larrypalmer3037]

Great info, I’ve been thinking about this series from Rockford for a while. You answered a lot of questions for me.

[@midnightmazda]

I remember going to RTTI training back in 2001 and they never miss anything. Our instructor was the one and only Mark Fakuda. Awesome company. I still run the old George Foreman grill looking amps linked together to look like one huge amp.

[@robertdavidson548]

Thank you brother. Just grabbed this for two massive audio toro 10's.
