Roadster 66 how good/bad are they
I have a NIB roadster 66 that I am thinking about putting into my civic anybody tell me how this amp is for sound and power output ?
I have a set of xenon 6.5 front a set of 8" kicker cvr8 (wanted pg but could not find at the time) for the rear.
I also need to know what would be the best 12" sub to use with the amp.

bruther has used one in his install...check it out if you havent already!
maybe he can comment on its performance?
the roadster 66 should push a 12" rsdc very well.

You can find RSDCs at onlinecarstereo.com...
Wodering about this amp Too...

great amp!!!
Really like my RSd's. You would have a hard time telling the difference in comparision to the Ti line in regards to SQ. Also the same guy who had a hand in designing the MS serie's worked on the RSd's as well. I researched these amps (RSd's) quite a bit and could not find any bad reviews at all. If your gonna run a simple modest power sorta system it's a great amp with sweet looks. I'm thinking about buying one just to match my Roadster limited edition Dickie's shirt i got from Bogart...
there was a great review in Car audio and electronic's from an issue in 07 I think.
hell just go buy one you won't be dissapointed at all.

I have been running the Roadster in my car for over a year now and love it. It is running a set of RSD6.5cs up front and a RSDc124 subwoofer and it has plenty of power for me. It sounds comparable to my previous setup in that car with a Ti500.4 actively running the components and a X600.1 running the RSDc sub (see page 1 of my install for those pics). The best part about it is the lack of fan noise compared to the Ti500.4 during quiet music passages or changes in songs.

I've been meaning to do this, but have been extremely lazy in doing so. I will try to remind myself to get the manual scanned and post it by next week.ZTwenty8SSR wrote:Anybody know where I can find a pdf or even just a scan of the roadster manual.

and download the manual for the 600.1 which is the sub amp inside the Roadster66 and the 500.4 is the 4-channel amp inside the Roadster66.

For sure....... That amp will beat them pretty decently but only give 'em 300 watts each.......
Those tender little burgers with them little, itty-bitty grilled onions that just explode in ya mouth like flavor crystals every time you bite into one.. just makes me want to burn this muthafuka down.... Come on, Pookie, let's burn this muthafuka down!!!

what would be the most significant advantages/disadvantages of running 3 rsdc 10" opposed to 2 rsdc 10" from the same amount of power - say 1000 to 1200 watts?
