ROCKFORD FOSGATE (M5-1000X1) 1,000 WATT MONO IPX6 ELEMENT READY™ AMPLIFIER Serious marine sound, made simple. The M5 amplifiers feature the next level of Element Ready™ design from Rockford Fosgate that’s built as rugged as the outdoor environment it’s used in. FEATURES & BENEFITS: Element Ready™: Purpose Built for the Marine Environment, Rockford’s Element Ready™ products are built to stand up to Water, Salt, and UV, making sure your amplifiers stand the test of time. C.L.E.A.N.: Our Patented circuit with input and output clip indicators help match the source unit to the amplifier, which makes for easy set-up and optimizes musical output. P.O.W.E.R. Supply: The unique P.O.W.E.R. supply continues to generate more than rated power as the voltage increases, giving you the output, you demand. DYNAMIC POWER Rockford Fosgate amplifiers are known world-wide for producing more power than their ratings suggest. The M5 amplifiers are the first series based on new industry standard Dynamic Power ratings, bringing their conservative ratings to the forefront. Engineered from the ground up and purpose-built to deliver more output where you actually hear it, this is real dynamic power that performs not only on paper, but performance heard through the musical experience. You’ll see two amplifier power ratings, the traditional Continuous Power output, and the new Dynamic Power output, both tested in accordance with the CTA-2006 specification. Consider Continuous Power as wattage developed on the test bench for comparison against other amplifiers in the same class, and Dynamic Power as real-world wattage when connected to a speaker load, listening to music. Either way you look at it, Rockford Fosgate is proving – once again – these amplifiers are powerful enough to drive any speaker or subwoofer you throw at them. FEATURES: Element Ready™ design with integrated harness & panel seals PRESET removes the need to set-up and tune the amp when used with Rockford Fosgate UTV audio kits Play all day, easy to integrate, and keep music playing for extended lengths of time C.L.E.A.N. input/output clip detection and indicator LEDs Constant Power provides instantaneous delivery of output over varying impedance loads Focused mass heat sink allows critical aluminum material to be located around hottest internal devices OEM and aftermarket radio integration inputs Top mounted control panel with Element Ready™ smoked lens cover Quality & Performance tested using proprietary RATS (Rockford Automated Testing System) Low Impedance Stability Class-BD technology provides 75-80% efficiency over traditional class A/B designs Discrete Surface Mount technology with 1% tight-tolerances for high efficiency & reduced cross-talk MESHA 4 reduces MOSFET temps, lowers distortion, increases durability and prolongs device life span Chassis Isolation from mounting points greatly reduces possible introduction of vehicle noise Balanced Differential Inputs eliminates noise picked up by signal cables Remote-Out feature when using high level inputs 2-Year Warranty TECHNOLOGIES Element Ready™ | Amps: All components are protected against harsh outdoor elements like Dust, UV, Temperature, Water, Corrosion & Vibration. P.O.W.E.R: Power supply circuit design that allows the amplifier to increase output power as voltage increases. IPX6 Water Intrusion Rating: Water projected in powerful jets from any direction shall have no harmful effects. MEHSA 4 (Maximum Efficiency Heat Sink Application): MEHSA4 reduces MOSFET temperatures, lowers distortion, increases durability and prolongs the output device life span. C.L.E.A.N. Set-Up: C.L.E.A.N. (Calibrated Level Eliminates Audible Noise) is a patented circuit with in/out clip LEDs to help match a source to amp and optimize output. Balanced Differential Inputs: Differential inputs eliminate noise picked up by signal cables. Constant Power: Constant Power is a patented circuit topology that provides instantaneous delivery of output power over varying impedance loads. Punch EQ2: Onboard equalizer with up to +18dB @ 45Hz and/or up to +12dB boost at 12kHz. NOMAD: NOMAD is a "real time" analog computer that protects your amplifier from shorting speaker wires and dangerously low speaker impedances. Engineered In The USA: These Avatars are a personal signature from the Rockford Fosgate team member(s) who designed and engineered this fanatic product. This statement illustrates our commitment to being Designed and Engineered in the U.S.A. DSM: DSM utilize 1% tight-tolerances improving efficiency of the circuit, decreases cross-talk from other discrete components and lowers operating temperature. CTA-2006 Compliant: Power ratings on Rockford Fosgate amplifiers conform to CTA-2006 industry standards. These guidelines mean your amplifier's output power ratings are REAL POWER numbers, not inflated marketing ratings. Class-BD: Class-BD amplifiers have 75-80% efficiency ratings vs. 20-60% efficiency ratings of traditional Class-A/B amplifiers.
