Kicker or Rockford Fosgate

I am looking to purchase either a kicker or RF amp. Which do you think is best and which one has the most power in terms of the manufacturers rating?

I kinda like the new rockford fosgate punch amps that look old school. So i'd go with rockford fosgate. Rockford Fosgate usually is underrated.

Probably cant go wrong with either one. Both are pretty solid built amps, both seem to be underrated some too as far as power ratings.
Id go with whatever you can get a better deal on.

I have a RF bd1001 that I like. Have used some of the kicker subs but none of their amps.

audiobahn amps are rated at 12.5 volts so they have more power than any other amp with the same OEM rating. But since audiobahn isn't one of your choices i'll have to say Rockford because they are more stable.

To answer the OP...I've always kinda liked the Kicker SX line.
