    As you know, i recently tested 2 500 watt amplifiers i purchased from the flea market. While my intentions were to get CHEAP flea market amps and test them, my conscience had me buying "better than" the typical bootleg crap. I ended up with (as you might know) a Gravity amp and a Phoenix Gold amp. Both rated 500watts RMS. I have seen enough "Gravity" product break in the past to know it might be low to medium quality and from the flea market, it might be even worse than that. The PG amp, you never know, it could be hollow inside and a total bootleg. Turns out they both did well! Anyhow, i will get more actual "crapola" and test it soon!
    Ok so there is more to my post, hear me out. I was planning to upgrade my amp test bench due to the fact i rarely use the 12v bank and never use the 16v bank. By the time you are using a 16v battery, you are using a large amplifier and i just don't have enough at this time to do that. So it is a waste. I primarily used my set of 3 XS Power D1400 14v batteries since it is the closest i can mimick a possible running vehicle. Is it perfect? NO. My tests are subjective and what you see on the screen is what you get. There is voltage drop. I charge the bank with a 15a XS Power HF1215 Intellicharger which tops them off in between runs. So with the 12v bank gone, the 16v bank gone, it left me with room to drop 7 more D1400's in place for a total of 10! With a 60a XS Power Charger/power supply, my bench should be more stout and able to test larger amps. Most of you know i already did this and the bench is all upgraded, ready to go!
    That being said, i recorded this video BEFORE i made the changes. I wanted it to be a very fair comparison between the last 2 500 Watt specimens and the RF T500.2. I recorded the outcome right before i pulled the test bench apart and upgraded it.
    rated 500w RMS in the owners manual.
