Rockford engineers designed the Punch 2-channel 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 circuit in the preamp stage of all Punch amplifiers that 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 crossover. The use of a protection circuit called NOMAD, along with MOSFET and DSM (Discrete Surface Mount) technologies improve amplifier efficiency. The result of these components give the Punch amplifier awesome sound quality in a “Bullet Proof” package. An explanation of these technologies, most of which are exclusively designed and patented by Rockford, are described in the Technical Design Features.

PUNCH AMPLIFIER ACCESSORY PACK

The accessory pack shipped with the Punch 2-channel amplifiers includes the mounting hardware necessary to secure the amp to the vehicle and to attach the end caps to the amplifier.
