is the amp rated at 125 watts per channel into a 2 ohm or a 4 ohm load? I do not remember when they changed their rating system, I do not remember if the change was mad at the A or the (.) series amps.

2 0hm and they were rated at 250 but they would do 5-6 hundred watts easy.

The ones that did 500 to 600 watts were the ones that were rated 125 watts per channel into a 4 ohm load.

Rockford used to rate their amps by the power that they put out into a 4 ohm stereo load. Now they give you the 2 ohm per channel rating. An old Punch 200 was rated at 100 per channel into a 4 ohm load. The new 250 is rated at 62.5 wpc into a 4 ohm stereo load. 125 wpc into a 2 ohm stereo load.

I do not remember when they changed the rating system. To answer your question I need to know if the bottom of the amp says 125 watts per channel into a ____ ohm load? Fill in the blank.
