Rockford Fosgate 5.3x manual Dual Extruded Heatsinks, Power/Speaker Barrier Strip, RCA Input Jacks

Page 9

1.Dual Extruded Heatsinks

The dual extruded aluminum heatsinks of this RF amplifier dissipate heat generated by the amplifier's circuitry.

2.Power/Speaker Barrier Strip

The barrier strip uses screw terminals that will accept #10 spade lugs or bare speaker and power wire sizes from 10-18 AWG. These gold-plated connectors are immune to corrosion that will cause signal degradation.

3.RCA Input Jacks

The industry standard RCA jack provides an easy connection for signal level input. They are gold-plated to resist the signal degradation caused by corrosion.

4.High Level Inputs

The high level input connectors accept 1/8" spade lugs for the connection of a source unit that has only speaker line (high level) outputs.

5.Input Sensitivity Controls

The input level controls are preset for 500mV which will match the output of most source units. They can be adjusted to match output levels from a variety of source units.

6.Internal Crossovers

The built-in crossover cards are configurable for a multitude of operating frequencies. The orientation of the card in its socket determines its function of high-pass, low-pass or full range operation.

7.LED Power Indicator

The LED gives a visual indication of the status of the amplifier, lighting when the unit is turned on.

8.Signal Input Switches

These switches allow the input signals to be distributed to the outputs in many different configurations.

9.Bias Controls

The Bias controls are preset at the factory and are not user adjustable. CAUTION! ANY ADJUSTMENT TO THE BIAS

CONTROLS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY!
