Rockford Fosgate vs ARC Audio???
#11
Well, I don't really want to buy another set of speakers. So I guess my best bet is to change both the amp and the speakers out. I guess I can put the ARC stuff on Ebay then. I know price doesn't mean quality all the time but I thought since the ARC amp was $300 and the RF is $150 that maybe it was a better unit.

I concur with Todd on this. I've had both amps running same Focal speakers really no neglible difference IMO. If anything I think Arc may sound ever so slightly cleaner probably because of it's better signal to noise ratio. But on bike moving not really going to be able to discern. I do like Arc's dual gains better but both good amps for bikes.

on eBay the KS 125.2 will pull in $175 tops but more realistically around $150. Here on the forums, it's like a swap meet so I wouldn't expect them to go for $150 but more like $100.
I just had 1 of these given to me and I bought 2 more only because they were $75 each and I tested them for working condition before purchasing.
I'll go back to my original suggestion. Put the speakers in first. you might just like it. I like ARC amps but not a fan of their speakers.
IMO a pair of Infinity 62.11I on that amp would be pretty kick-azz

+1 for what Nutz said...Or if you want to save some money you could put in a pair of JBL P662 6.5" speakers instead of the Infinity 62.11i. Similar performance at about $82/pair off Amazon. That would be cheaper than replacing the amp and speakers.

+1 on Nutz suggestion as well. But I gotta tell you Gnarl78 those JBL's you speak of are no where near the quality of the infinity 62.11i's. For the $30.00 price difference the OP would be money ahead buying the infinity's. Now the JBL 6 X 9's totally different story.

The price difference is closer to $50 presently. Both speakers are made by HK and the designs are similar, but the Kappas' are more efficient according to the specs.
