I use my RSD 1200.1 to push 4 Alpine 10" Type R and it does a good job, its a very powerfull amp http://phoenixphorum.com/rsd-500-1200-a ... t1652.html

If it sound good..... or if it can be compared to other older PG amps.. not very easy to say back in the trunck of a car pushing 4 subwoofers but i also have the RSD 500.4 and i like the sound very good, same engineers who made the old Ms series. I used to have MS275 to mid\high speakers and i think they have the same soft sound and i like it alot.

I have the RSD500.4 connected to a pair of RSD65C and its a brilliant match.

Heres a review where the RSD 1200.1 did 1390 Watt

yes, the RSD amps actually meet 2006 CEA standards for power ratings

they are by no means a budget amp. they dont have some of the crossover and processing features that the higher end amps have, but for just pure power they are no joke

ok, yeah I thought it wasn't that good like the x1200.1. Because it looks more cheap like not as solid on the outside. But it actually puts out more power then the xenon is pretty impressive. Now I am thinking of getting one to run a fi audio q or something.

These amps are definitely no joke : ).

I ran an rsd1200 per ti12d elite when my colt was still together. Loved it.

I still have 1 Ti12d Elite kicking around my room. I wouldn't think twice about throwing an RSd1200 on it again...which I will do some day when my vdub repairs are all complete and I have spare money.(Don't buy vdubs at 85000 miles, I love it but it has not been cheap)
