Introduction

Rockford engineers designed the Power series amplifiers to withstand the rugged automotive environment while delivering superior sound quality in a flexible, reliable, and efficient package. TRANS•ana is a low voltage cir- cuit in the preamp stage lets the music sound crystal clear and very real, even when played at high volume levels. This is matched with TOPAZ, a unique grounding circuit used to eliminate noise problems associated with car audio systems and their installation. Flexibility is accomplished with the use of a built-in variable crossover. The use of a protection circuit called NOMAD, along with MOSFET and DSM (Discrete Surface Mount) technol- ogies improve amplifier efficiency. The result of these components give the Power amplifier awesome sound quality in a “Bullet Proof” package. Explanations of these technologies, most of which are exclusively designed and patented by Rockford, are described in the Technical Design Features.
