Amp Test Tuesday - Rockford Fosgate T800.4 - Rated 800 watts - SMD AD-1 Amp Dyno

See my test cart built from scratch here: Tune like a PRO! Find all SMD products here: Today’s test is the Rockford Fosgate T800.4 (2006/2007). It is rated at 200x4 or 400 x 2 (bridged). I will make an effort to post a video on Tuesday’s, at least a couple times a month, highlighting a different amp each time. More amps to be tested soon! Some will pass, some will FAIL! *DISCLAIMER - The amp testing you see me doing on my BENCH, is exactly that, on my BENCH. It is limited to 3 12v batteries and 3 14v batteries. You might see the starting voltage higher then the 12.8 (12v) or the 14.5 (14v) bank. That is because i have a 10a intellicharger keeping the batteries fresh in between rounds. The 10a does not contribute much at all to the power supply but the voltage appears higher as they try to replenish the batteries. It quickly comes back down once the test starts. The AD-1 was designed to be brought out to your car and amps tested while STILL in the vehicle. The test results will be highly influenced by the electrical system YOU provide while your amplifier is being tested. Although my bench is FUN, it is probably limited to about 1800-2000 watts. Smaller amps will show better results as they will not pull the battery bank down as hard. I will test some very large amps but they will need to be hooked up to a larger power source, like my Tahoe with 4 alternators and 10 batteries. Serial # 00001 is in the building! the SMD D’Amore Engineering Amp Dyno AD-1 is about to set the standard in car audio for amplifier ratings. Does your 5000 watt amp really do 5000 watts? Whether it is car, pro, or home audio, the AD-1 AKA the Honey Badger, does not care. Remember, the amp dyno isn’t so much about your amplifier not making the power as it is WHY the amp isn’t making its power. If your electrical system, or some other link in the chain is not working to its full potential, the amplifier will not either. The dyno shows any small change you make in REAL TIME.
