The Rockford Fosgate Element Ready Amplifier - The amplifier features the next level of Element Ready™ design from Rockford Fosgate that’s built as rugged as the outdoor environment it’s used in. The IPX6 rating is provided by a water tight seal featuring splash guards on both ends and heavy-duty molded harnesses with integral sealing gaskets. A new PRESET switch - for use with Rockford Fosgate UTV audio kits - eliminates the need to set-up and tune the amp for the best experience possible. Built on the popular TM series; amplifiers feature the same great technologies like Constant Power; Class-AD and C.L.E.A.N.; all engineered; developed; and validated in Tempe; Arizona.
Rockford Fosgate amplifiers are known world-wide for producing more power than their ratings suggest. The 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.
Element Ready Amplifier Features:
