Rockford Fosgate Power T1000-1BDCP 1000 watt mono amplifier
The new Constant Power amplifiers are some of the most powerful amplifiers on the market. The T1000-1bdCP is based on the legendary T1000-1bd amplifier design with a proprietary "Constant Power" configuration delivering up to 25% more power (Watts) across all impedance loads. The listening experience is cleaner, louder and more impressive than ever before. The T1000-1bdCP, pumps out a heart-stopping Kilowatt, enough power for any reasonably sane subwoofer system.Rockford Fosgate Power Series AmplifiersPower > Size. These compact amps deliver the same gut wrenching power as its big brother, but their chassis designs are up to 40% smaller. DTM (Dynamic Thermal Management) allows efficient heat transfer that minimizes physical size and enables installs under seats and other compact areas when abundant power is required.The "Constant Power" configuration delivers up to 25% more power (Watts) across all impedance loads.Click to enlarge.Pass-thru connection for easy system-building.Click to enlarge.Small chassis designs with serious power.Click to enlarge.T1000-1bdCP Features24dB/octave crossover4 Gauge power/ground terminalsAudiophile grade speaker connectionsInfrasonic filterMOSFET output stageMOSFET power supplyRCA pass-thruCEA-2006Power ratings on Rockford Fosgate amplifiers conform to CEA-2006 industry standards. These guidelines mean your amplifier's output power ratings are REAL POWER numbers, not inflated marketing ratings.Class bdRockford 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.Constant PowerMusic and speakers have a dynamic relationship. As the frequency of music varies, so does the impedance of the speaker. This patent pending technology gives the amplifier the ability to instantaneously deliver its maximum output power to the speaker without regard to its varying impedance while still maintaining its high-efficiency and thermal performance.Differential InputsDifferential 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.DSMDSM utilize 1% tight-tolerances improving efficiency of the circuit, decreases cross-talk from other discrete components and lowers operating temperature.Dynamic Thermal ManagementHeat 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.MEHSA3MEHSA3(Maximum Efficiency Heat Sink Application--gen. 3) reduces MOSFET temperatures, lowers distortion, increases durability and prolongs the output device life span.Punch EQ2In 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.The 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.Rockford Fosgate AvatarThese 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.TO-247 MOSFETsRockford 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.T1000-1bdCP SpecificationsNumber of Channels:1Rated Power:700W x 1 @ 4-Ohms RMS1000W x 1 @ 2-Ohms RMS1000W x 1 @ 1-Ohm RMSTotal Power:1000 WattsDynamic Power:1320 WattsBridgeable:NoEfficiency (average):85.6% @ 4-Ohm82.1% @ 2-Ohm70.0% @ 1-OhmCrossover Controls:Low-Pass (LP): 35Hz-250Hz @ 24dB/octave ButterworthInfrasonic: 12dB/octave Butterworth, -3dB @ 28HzTone Controls:Bass: 0dB to +18dB @ 45HzSignal Input:1 RCA pairSignal Output:1 RCA pairPower Input Connector:BlockPower Wire Gauge:4 AWGSpeaker Output Connector:Screw terminal barrier stripSpeaker Wire Gauge:8 AWG to 18 AWGHeat Sink Type:Cast aluminumCooling:ConvectionRemote Controls:Optional Remote Punch EQ (overrides built-in Punch EQ)Visual Indicators:PowerThermalProtectCircuit Topology Class:Class bdFrequency Response:20Hz to 250kHz +/- 0.5dBShipping Weight:TBADimensions (HxWxL):2.14 x 8.14 x 13.66 (in)5.44 x 20.68 x 34.69 (cm)Thirty Years of Rockford FosgateRockford Fosgate products have been designed and engineered in Tempe, Arizona since the beginning. Rockford's 30 year reputation is grounded in engineering and manufacturing some of the finest audio products in the world. The company's no-compromise approach has yielded patented iconic products such as the Punch EQ, Punch 45 amplifier and the 3Sixty integrated signal processor. Today, Rockford's new products push the performance envelope even further. Each new product is a step forward--they sound bigger, they play louder, and run longer. Rockford never settles for "good enough."The 2010 product line represents the company's core philosophy. Rockfords new amplifiers, speakers and subwoofers have raised the bar on the competition.What's in the BoxRockford Fosgate Power T1000-1BDCP 1000 watt mono amplifier, Mounting Hardware, User's ManualOn a Tighter Budget?For those seeking a more affordable multi-channel amplification solution, Rockford offers the Punch SeriesP1000-1bdand the Prime SeriesR1000-1D, among other options.Power Series "Constant Power" AmplifiersRockford Fosgate Power T500-1BDCP 500 watt mono amplifierRockford Fosgate Power T1000-1BDCP 1000 watt mono amplifierRockford Fosgate Power T1500-1BDCP 1500 watt mono amplifier
