Rockford Fosgate Punch 1000-Watt Mono Amplifier Reviews
More Picture
I've owned many Rockford amps and this is no exception to any of them. It's loud as heck you can hear me coming in my car from far away at just a little over half gain! I have 2 12" Infinity Kappa Perfect 4-ohm subs to this amp and the subs can't handle more than a little over half the gain of this amp. It still rocks and you get the Rockford clarity and punch you'd expect from any Rockford amp. I also have the same model amp but 300-1 which handled my Infinity's perfect. Im about to order 2 12" Rockford P3's within the next few days and THAN IT WILL BE ON!! Perfect subs for this brute amp! I'll be ordering the P3's from Amazon.com like I do everything else and than i will post my review about those subwoofers with this amp. I CANT WAIT!
Rockford Fosgate Punch 1000-Watt Mono Amplifier Feature
- Mono amplifier delivers 250W x 1 @ 4-Ohms RMS, 500W x 1 @ 2-Ohms RMS, 1000W x 1 @ 1-Ohm RMS
- Variable low-pass crossover (35-250Hz 24dB/octave Butterworth)
- Punch EQ2 variable bass boost (0dB to +18dB @ 45Hz)
- Class-bd amplifier with MOSFET output stage and power supply
- Audiophile grade speaker connections and RCA pass-thru
With its super efficient Class-BD circuit topology, the P1000-1bd assures maximum BOOM for your buck! Due to its dedicated low frequency response, this amplifier is optimized for mid-bass speakers or subwoofers only. No need to worry because its 1-ohm capability will drive a pair of 4-ohm DVC subwoofers or quad-configuration of 2-ohm DVC subwoofers with ease./ptable width="100%" cellpadding="20" style="padding:10px;background-color:#f4f4f4;"trtdimg src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/RF-Logo.jpg"/tdtdh2Rockford Fosgate Punch Series Amplification/h2 For over 25 years, Punch amplifiers have set the standard in the car audio amplifier industry and they continue to do so today. It's the reason that they have become the most popular amplifiers in the world. Each of the Punch family amplifiers reproduce sonic perfection along with impressive power in a compact chassis. /td/tr/tablebr clear="all"hrtable width="300" cellpadding="20" align="right"trtd align="center"img src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/B0012QD35K-1-th.jpg" border="0"psmallbiOptimized for mid-bass speakers or subwoofers.

These guidelines mean your amplifier's output power ratings are REAL POWER numbers, not inflated marketing ratings. pbClass bd/bbr Rockford Fosgate bd topology is a revolutionary patented design, integrating a technology that is more efficient than typical class AB and has lower distortion than class D designs. POWER bd amplifiers are 75-80% efficient vs. 20-60% efficient class ab amplifiers. What does that mean? More power from your amplifier with less drain on your vehicles electrical and charging system. pbDifferential Inputs/bbr Differential input circuitry measures the voltage of both the (+) and (-) input signal. The circuitry subtracts the voltage common to both conductors (noise) resulting in only the clean signal. This allows only clean signal to enter the amplifier. pbDSM/bbr DSM utilize 1% tight-tolerances improving efficiency of the circuit, decreases cross-talk from other discrete components and lowers operating temperature. pbDynamic Thermal Management/bbr Heat is often inefficiently dissipated across a heatsink causing "hot spots". Rockford Fosgate engineers have developed an award winning cooling design called DTM. This patent pending design seamlessly manages the output of power supply temperatures, while evenly distributing the excess heat across the entire amplifier. pbMEHSAsup3/sup/bbr MEHSAsup3/sup (Maximum Efficiency Heat Sink Application--gen. 3) reduces MOSFET temperatures, lowers distortion, increases durability and prolongs the output device life span. pbNOMAD/bbr NOMAD (Non Multiplying Advanced Decision) is a "real time" analog computer that protects your amplifier from shorting speaker wires and dangerously low speaker impedances. pbPunch EQ2/bbr In the early 70's, Jim Fosgate studied the acoustical properties of automobiles. Utilizing a real-time analyzer and pink noise, he would graph out the acoustical characteristics of each car he tested. Jim discovered three problems that were common to all cars: a midbass hump between 100-275Hz, a steep roll-off of high frequencies from 2kHz up to 20kHz, and reduced bass response below 50Hz. pThe Punch EQ on-board equalization circuit helps correct for these acoustical deficiencies in the listening environment. When set to Low-Pass(LP) operation, it becomes a variable Bass Boost. When set to High-Pass (HP) operation, it acts as a variable Mid-Bass and Treble Boost. When set to All Pass (AP) operation, both Bass and Treble frequencies are boosted. pbRockford Fosgate Avatar/bbr These Avatars are a personal signature from the Rockford Fosgate team member who designed and engineered this fanatic product. This statement illustrates Rockford's commitment to being Designed and Engineered in the U.S.A. pbTO-247 MOSFETs/bbr Rockford Fosgate amps use custom TO-247 MOSFETs. These have 60% more metal tab area for more power capacity, lower impedance and improved heat dissipation over traditional TO-220 MOSFETs found in competitor amps. br clear="all"hrh2P1000-1bd Specifications/h2ptable cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" width="800" border="1" style="border-collapse: collapse;"tr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongNumber of Channels:/strong/tdtd1/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongRated Power:/strong/tdtd250W x 1 @ 4-Ohms RMSbr 500W x 1 @ 2-Ohms RMSbr 1000W x 1 @ 1-Ohm RMS/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongTotal Power:/strong/tdtd1000 Watts/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongDynamic Power:/strong/tdtd--/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongBridgeable:/strong/tdtdNo/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongEfficiency (average):/strong/tdtd86% @ 4-Ohmbr 84% @ 2-Ohmbr 76% @ 1-Ohm/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongCrossover Controls:/strong/tdtdLow-Pass (LP): 35-250Hz 24dB/octave Butterworth/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongTone Controls:/strong/tdtdPunch EQ2 Bass: 0dB to +18dB @ 45Hzbr Infrasonic Filter: Selectable 12dB/Octave, -3dB @ 28Hz/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongSignal Input:/strong/tdtdLow level: 1 RCA pair/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongSignal Output:/strong/tdtdLow level: 1 RCA pair/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongPower Input Connector:/strong/tdtdBlock/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongPower Wire Gauge:/strong/tdtd4 AWG/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongSpeaker Output Connector:/strong/tdtdScrew terminal barrier strip/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongSpeaker Wire Gauge:/strong/tdtd8 AWG to 18 AWG/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongHeat Sink Type:/strong/tdtdCast aluminum/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongCooling:/strong/tdtdConvection/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongRemote Controls:/strong/tdtdOptional PEQ Remote Punch EQbr (overrides built-in Punch EQ2)/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongVisual Indicators:/strong/tdtdPowerbr Thermalbr Protect/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongCircuit Topology Class:/strong/tdtdClass bd/td/trtr valign="top"tdstrongFrequency Response:/strong/tdtd20Hz to 250kHz +/- 0.5dB/td/trtr valign="top" style="background-color:#f4f4f4;"tdstrongShipping Weight:/strong/tdtd10.38 Lbs.
