Love to see old school car audio set ups like this, especially in really good condition. I hope you upload a video of the final install.
I realize it's quite off topic but does anyone know of a good site to stream newly released tv shows online ?
@Caiden Roberto Meh try flixportal. you can find it if you google :) -jeremy
@Jeremy Andy Thank you, signed up and it seems like a nice service =) I appreciate it!!
@Caiden Roberto Happy to help xD
Back in the day if you had a Punch 1000 you were on top of the food chain!
No doubt! I was WAY on the bottom, lol
IMO You still are today!
Nice sarcasm.. i'd rather take your Fosgate setup over punch any day. I actually preferred Pyle Drivers in the early 90's but RF was sick.
NMdesertracer got mine in 2000 the first year they put out the bd continuous power series. I'd run one now if I could find 1
How things change huh :D
Man, old school punch subs driven with an awesome Power 1000! That's too cool man, keep rocking amazing "vintage" gear!
don't call them vintage...they still takes down those JL Audio ones
That chrome power 1000 was the truth
That was such a great trick with the AA battery! Thanks BigD!
Love the throwback fosgate's! like the amp dynos of the classic's as well, really reminds me of when I first got into car audio.
had those same subs back in the day thats when fosgate really put pride in there work love these videos keep em coming Big d i look forward to your videos when you post them keep it ol school
I think the power dvc was better and more powerful than the power series??
back then when RF was good stuff made in az
was?? lol Rockford has some of the best sound quality out there, sir
OLD STUFF WAS BETTER
+allmotorhash I agree only the power series amps are still top quality
is the prime series not good? I was looking into getting the R1200-1D
***** best bang for buck RF amp
I've seen modern subs use the same exact frame. Just shows how good the engineering at Rockford is and was to have modern brands using the same design all these years later.
For real bro 😎🙌💪👍
Back in 94 my buddy had two 12" fosgates in his bug. Shit slammed! I became an instant long time fan of Fosgate
had two 15s like these...omg...u killing me with the memories lol
Just having fun. I tried so many ways to portray the sound of the subs, but I was not successful.
its cool lol....appreciated anyway!
I still have my PWR415 s.
I received one of these PWR 412 just for buying a pair of mint 50m from original owner last week, which makes 3 50m in my old school RF collection, thank you unknown craigslist seller.
Your Rockford Subwoofer are absolut awesome! I have two 1992 100W RF S1 124 with karlsonator enclosure playing in a 50m² livingroom and they try to break my house. I like the oldschool stuff, the sound is so much better!
Yeah man when I was in high school a kid had 4 10” Rockford power dvc holly hell. First real sound quality system I heard and it had me hooked! He cold play any music and It just slammed.
R.I.P to my homie Scott Brooks,he had to had 2 18in punch & a Power 1000,hear him coming from long ways off
Bless em 🙏 may he R.I.P back the day systems rock with out so much watts. Like now and days..smh
RIP
Damn I'm feeling super old since I still have my original punch 12s in sealed boxes from 92. Still look and feel new as the day I bought them.
My wife would skin me alive if I installed that in the back of her Odyssey!
Freaking awesome, still nothing like old school power and clarity. I am still pounding a 12" HiFonics Olympian series 2 in a sealed enclosure and powering it with my Audio Art 200.2xe. I have plenty of other systems before and after and this is my favorite sub set up.
You speak da truf 👏
@@wal thanks Brother, I appreciate the videos.
26 years old and still slams now thats well built car audio from back in the day just wish they take the time now days to make stuff good again
+Joe Treehiged some do, very expensive though. No difference than back in the day
Man you brought back some memories. I had 5 of these 12's and was waiting on the 6th one to pop up on Ebay. All were NIB too! I got bored after waiting over a yr to build my system that I sold the subs and bought a motorcycle in 2007. I think I sold them for $200/piece back them. Man I'm kicking myself now because they are holding their value. And for those that said RF made great stuff back then. They certainly did. I only had 1 spider to coil failure on a 5.25 speaker. Took her about and the coil was still nice and shiny. It was the RFR 5.25, same yr as these subs, red diamond dust cap. Sold the good one for $55! I sent both to the buyer. So yes, their products were well made. Nice video man! Keep up the good work.
My uncle had one ported behind his seat in a 1990 single cab 4x4, 10 excelon speakers up front, running off Fosgate amps, was one of best times of my childhood!!
Thanks cool man, thanks for sharing!
Some of the best subs I've ever owned. Had two power 10's in a 86 VW GTI hatchback. I had a 500 watt alpine amplifier and a phoenix gold crossover. Of course back then everyone had standalone crossovers as they weren't in every amp like today. I think I paid $400 each for my power 10's back in 96.
I had two in the back of my Vauxhall cavalier and it was nice!
yea man loving it old school is good greetting from barbados..respect..
Thanks!
dude this is one of my favorite systems.. out of all the new and old one this by far is my number 1
👌😊👍
Lucky... Lol right now i got Ray from illuminati sounds building me a custom MTX 9500 15 D2 but after this build im workin on im goin to build a oldschool set up. Thinkin old RF power or punk HX2s but a newer class D to push them..
I had 2 power punch 12’s back in the day. Hooked up to a punch 250m. 1989 Chevy Corsica ltz. They slammed hard!
Brings me back!
The 1000's chromed hard!!
the 12's I had back around 1992-96 (I cant remember) I remember them being called "Classic" not sure if they were before of after these. What I know is, they were not playin games. I was rockin a pair of 12's in a custom band-pass box, in the back seat of my toyota tacoma extracab, a pair of Boston Acoustic RC51's in the doors and a pair of Alpine amps (cant even remember the model). Loved that system, and would kill to have those boston's back.
Those RF Power 12's were in my top 3 old school faves! Others were the original Kicker Competitions and Orion XTR'S! Those were the great old days!
man that amp looks so old school, i loooove it
Sounds amazing with headphones!!
😊👍
I remember 1994, I had four 15s in the trunk of my 1969 dodge Monaco.
Big ol band pass box and some fosgate gear from the good old days. Man I miss my youth.... selling car audio at Electric Avenue and Circuit City. Spending hours dreaming up trick installs..
+Jon Vancil that's what many of my videos are about...reliving the past and doing tests I always wanted to do but never had the tools or resources to purchase
Love the power 1000!It was a dream amp back in 92!
brings back memories, liked seeing something new. excited about the install.
+Tim Williams thanks for watching and commenting. I want to change things up a bit. Amp Dyno videos are getting boring to me. I think I'll do them as small segments to future videos. We'll see. Thanks also for the feedback
man that bass came through the comp speakers
I just picked up a Rockford power 1000 from the 1990's and a punch 200 for get this $80!! to me That's a amazing good deal. And both amps works and look new. The punch 200 has the original box too.
Want to sale ?
Punch 200?
Damn that amp is sick.. sick old school Rockford Fosgate.. the recording was clear.. got my 2 subs bumpin hard
That is All you will need back then, and Now!!!! 👍👍👍👍
Cool video. Thxs for sharing My first RF "The Punch" (2) 10"SVC 4-0hm Subs. W/ Punch 40ix ...then the addiction was born.
+Drew MiZ my first setup was similar...never forget how we started!
+Dereck BigDWiz AMEN haha
nice old school
+Edward Jones ✌️😎👍 thanks
Wow!!!!!! Crazy output and hardly moving at all. Awesome vid man!
These subs are pretty efficient and don't have a ton of X-max. I estimate they are getting about 350W each. Thanks for watching and commenting
i had one of those the punvh subs back in 2002. it was the hardest hitting sub i had owned.
I remember my RF Punch 45 on one Orion 12 back in 95-96
I had a single Orion xtr blue 12 in a sealed single hatch box and a smaller alpine bridged and it slammed! My coworker had two power acoustic amd two other off brand 12s amd a huge boss amp and could figure out why my 50x2 alpine hit way harder than his four 12s on that big boss amp lol
First subs I ever had but with the black basket they were the best $200 a piece had on a punch 200 and OMG trunk rattleling apart
if it wasn't for jim fosgate I don't think there would be car amps. he invented the first amp in 1973. what a car audio genius.
Ray Merrill your wrong but common mistake Stan Harrison of Harrison labs was the first
popularized. ;) i love fosgate.
Very cool set up!
Seem that audio channel on UA-cam are hard to grow but you do a really good job. Keep up the good work and people will find you
+jacob bennett yes, I've been doing this for a while, back when EXO and Soundman had under 10k subscribers (Price too). Now they are all over 100k subs. My videos for too long were hyper focused on too narrow of an audience. I'm branching out a bit, it's a necessity to get a larger audience. It's not all about the numbers, but I've paid my dues and it's time for BigD to get his 🤔
That box looks sooo sweet with those fosgate woofers !!
+1boostup it has been my bench test sub box, WAY overkill 😜
That is All you need back then, and Now!!!! 👍👍👍👍
+ddoan 2001 for me it’s too much 😬
my jaw just went straight to the floor when I saw the thumbnail 😮😮😮👽👍👍👍. getting all nostalgic
+rc121crx that's what it's all about at OSS...nostalgia! Thanks for watching and commenting
i love the old school look, looks good man ....
+euphorikfay thanks 👍
Awesome setup Big D.. Glad to see someone else using the battery test..
+southernoverdrive09 gotta get dem subs in phase! Can't believe I didn't notice the incorrect binding post screws back when I originally installed these 👎
lol it can happen..
My daily driver has two hx2s from the year 2000 and one from 2005. All three are 10". In a ported box they slam!
I love the HX2!!! I had 2 15s on a mtx 1501 in 2002 and damn they would kill your ear drums in my 1992 camaro
O. I GET IT!! had 4 of them hooked up to an old orion hcca i think the 225 at .5 ohms so long ago cant remember. What i do remember is needing ear plugs. 1996!
That setup is amazing!
Miss them old hx2
Ur "Tha Man Big D"..........Enjoy ur videos......Old Schooling.....!!!!
They will do good. I believe.
can't wait for the dyno video
Damn! That amp looks good in action. 4 of those subs must hit really hard. Cool video.
+godzillasballs they hit REAL hard. Especially for 1000 watts and 22 plus year old subs 😊
Had 2 Series-1 18"s circa 1992 on a Punch 45HD and they were PHAT.
Damn you made me feel old when you said these subs are 8 ohm subs. Back when a true 1000 watt amp cost a arm, a leg and doubled your mortgage. XD
Yessir!
It's like a baby version of Steve Meade's Tahoe! Nice job.
+E. J. Thomas too bad I can't dedicate it to a system...if so, she would be tricked out! May go son of a birch to make dat box lighter ✌️😊👍
You were a car audio God if you had that amp back in the day!!
And at $2650 you had deep pockets too!
Cool video man. Can't wait to see an install
+jacob bennett thanks. I'll keep updating as time permits
I remember when you could run a punch 60 to two Rockford Fosgate series subs and have a pretty hard hitting system.
The construction of this sub looks so much like the soundstream reference except the cone
Keep them coming 👍
My fav subs of all time
Why
I love the old school audio....love the clean crisp sound......buuut I live the long throw and low end if now days woofers😏 nice!!!!
12" fosgate power have 4 inch voice coils. back in '94
Awesome job buddy sounds great 👍
Thanks for the feedback 👌
very good deep bas sound I like it
muito bom
I hear you on your needs, I'm sort of in the same boat with my car. But looks like a nice Punchy setup for sure!
+Reggie Reginato John used this box in a Rodeo, so I knew it would fit in the Sequoia. We use the 3rd row of seats, so unfortunately I'm not gonna be able to use this box. Needs to be lighter anyway, think I'm gonna go birch
Killin' it!!! 😨😨😨
+Danny Caballero 😊✌️
PPI 2075 hooked up in stereo (didnt have a bridging module) to two G and S design redline 12's in a ported box the size of a refrigerator. Slammed in my 72 vw beetle.
👌😬👍
I had a 15 like that in a bandpass box with a hifonics 500 watt amp
I like the old school equipment and it was very expensive back then for just a 1k amp. One of the loudest I've heard was 4 12" Orion XTR's in a ported blow through in a extended cab S-10 on a 1k Orion XTReme mono amp. I've seen people spend 3 to 4 times more on their system and not even come close to this particular set up. We pulled them out and there was no suspension left to them in the spiders from them being so old and them using a single spider.
+Nobody asked you! GFY! Very true, this amp is also 1k powering (4) 12" subs. It is pretty crazy, unreal the speakers still work so well after all of these years. Speaking of Orion, see my older video of a 1990 Mazda B2200 with (4) Orion XTR15 subs powered by a 225 HCCA. Pretty sick for that little power...
Ohhhh that's a nice box!
+CarAudioFabrication lol, thanks, but I can't take credit. My buddy John made it
I had 4 punch 12 on two punch 60 amp which took the chip out the amp and turned them upside down it give it more power those amp was underrated this was in 96 97 banging in the 90's in a 84 Buick Lesabre
That’s the Punch 60ix or 60x2
@@wal Mannnnn! I can't remember damn that was so so long ago before I had kids lol I know they was punch 60 we used to called them turtle shells because I bought the MTX 3600 amp was a bad ass amp at that time my caught fire in 97 burned my car and house I wish I could remember but I can't sorry
I got an old school Rockford-Fosgate 700S amp from 2003. The older Rockford-Fosgate stuff was built much better with better material and quality!
Cool shit man ! Gotta love that oldskool audio
Thanks bud
l think that you are better than Johnathan Price and Steve Mead. l get a quality vibe from you, and they give me a basshead poser vibe... they are still cool guys but you're better.
Very kind of you to say, but Steve is cooler and JP is cut more....:-P
Sooo much yes. BigD is a G!!
Steve Mead told me everybody runs audiocontrol 1200 sq amps @ 1 ohm. I think it's because he is an arrogant ass-hat.
Electronics For Fun Yeah hes a solid dude, glad to have him as a quality representative for car audio
Gotta change the shorts. I was in audio nerd heaven. My crappy old school system was an M&M Godfather powered by a Punch 200 is, then 4 jl 12w1's ran off a Phoenix gold m100.
Thank God for Wayne Harris and his idea for the Terminator Amps. Wonder where the 10 he kept for himself are ......
Ahhh them old days when you could hold the subwoofer in with a thumb and screw it down with the other.
uploaded on my birthday
+Turtle Dawgg happy belated bday Dawgg 🤘
BigDWiz thanks man!
that amp looks like a beast
+Joe it's pretty beastly 🚗🔊🔊
Thanks Big D!
😬🤙
I enjoyed the vid. Keep up the great work Big D
why do I love RF so much?
Love the amp never seen it before or anyone like it but man that is cool
The Power 1000 was the big daddy. I was a member of the Punch Bunch...out of San Antonio. Dyer Electronics..then it changed names Rodney Goza's electronics. YA,,I'm that old. 1987 Honda CRX. Everyone wanted the BIG Boomers, 12's 15' and some 18's
I stayed with the 4 8" subs. Tight base..not too boomy. Power 300, Punch 150, and Punch 75. 16 speakers in all. Had the amps anodized in red to match my car. I still have them.
Thanks for watching and commenting 🤙
my friends dads van it was a beast
Awesome video!
+Sengeto thx 4 watching and commenting ✌️
You the man +Dereck BigDWiz
Old School boom boom!
+hifivega got that Boom Boom Pow!
I got a buddy who has a new old stock 6.5 components that match your subs
Sweet! Tell him to send those to me :-)
I have 2 12 inch Punch DVC's from 90"s in PERFECT condition.Doing an install in my 2010 F150 next month.Will have those subs,1F Cap,Low Pass Xover and 1000 wt Amp behind the seat.
Awesome! Put up a vid when you have it complete and let me know the link
