Out of all RF headunits to buy, why that one? The famous model is the rfx8250.

This was RF's flagship deck from their first production run back in 95-96'. This deck was insane back then and will still keep up with high-end decks of today! 8v preout..50ohm impedance..balanced out option..aux in. People either loved or hated the cosmetics. I personally love the design. It's very simple and looked great with all of the other RF goodies to go with it ie. RDAT & PSD's These were manufactured by Delco believe it or not :shock:


Nice Joerg very nice! I still have one of these NIB 8) It's sitting right beside my NIB RFX8250ti :P

That´s the one u shipped for me earlier this year and it´s not for sale. I paid 199USD plus actual shipping to austria for it. Pretty cheap compared to the former retail of 1199eur :shock: here in austria back in 1997

I had one back in the day, when I had my EPX2. The diamond R button switched lead was the coolest, especially back then!!

Ugly but 8.5 volt 4 ohm output, not many ha those specs back in the day!!

I agree with this 100% too. Always had a soft spot for these units myself.

Good score Joerg :)
