RF is the better choice. Overall better build quality and more power.

^^^^ and to answer your other question you can buy better amp putting 3k, soundstream pca3500d puts 3500w, not the same quality but is still good and has more output.

i'd get the rockford though

I've been told Power Acoustik bought out SoundStream. If that's true that's not good for all you SoundStream fans.

Rockford vs. MTX whould be a better match up.

I whould be happy with either of those as long as the RF is the power line.

The new MTX line with Xtant Tech. are really sweet amps.

I personally own a MTX Thunder 4501 along with a RF Power 1000 25 to lfie.

Excellant amps.

I'd take the Orion over the RF... And I've owned both... Mostly because of the price difference, but also because of the looks and because I'm still not very pleased with RF's products (yet).

^^^^ that's a way to see it but when it comes to output and durability the rockford might take the lead but anyways they're both good just get the one you want.

Rockford Fosgate and Kicker and MTX are all in the same class and are very similar and all built in the US. They all put out there rated power and then some.

Yea, the RF will probably put out 100-200 watts more. But I doubt you're really gonna hear the difference... And granted they're built better... But they're d@mn expensive... And I love the look of the 2500D...

I would never put the MTX in the same class as Kicker or Fosgate. You doubt this then crack them open and see, MTX build quality isn't all that... But between Fosgate and Kicker, sorry Kicker is my pick but I run SX's... Polo.. :-O

You won't be disappointed with a 2500d. Never heard a T20001bd, but the orion is awesome.
