Introduction In R&D for 3 years, the engineers at Rockford Fosgate unveiled a new tech- nology for car audio applications, Class bd. The principle was shown to the public at the 1999 CES.The bd class amplifier puts over 1000 watts of rms power in the hands of the serious car audio fanatic-- and does so in the relatively small size of the older Power 250.1 package. Conventional Class D amplifiers have been around for 60 years in theory and about 30 years in practice. Judging from market accepta

Design FeatureS 1. Cast Aluminum Heatsink – The cast aluminum heatsink of the Punch amplifier dissipates heat generated by the amplifier's circuitry. The inherent advantage of casting provides a 30% improvement of cooling over conventional extrusion heatsink designs. 2. Speaker Terminals – The heavy duty, gold-plated terminal block con- nectors (+ and –) will accept wire sizes from 8 AWG to 18 AWG. These gold-plated connectors are immune to corrosion that can cause signal deterioration. 3. B+ an

Design Features (Cont’d.) 6. RCA Pass-Thru Jacks – The Pass-Thru provides a convenient source for daisy-chaining an additional amplifier without running an extra set of RCA cables from the front of the vehicle to the rear amplifier location. 7. Gain Control – The input gain control is preset to match the output of most source units. It can be adjusted to match output levels from a variety of source units. 8. Remote Punch Bass - The Punch Bass control helps correct for acousti- cal deficiencie

Installation Considerations This section focuses on some of the vehicle considerations for installing your new Punch amplifier. Checking your battery and present sound sys- tem, as well as pre-planning your system layout and best wiring routes, will save installation time. When deciding how to lay out your new system, be sure that each component will be easily accessible for making adjustments. Before beginning any installation, be sure to follow these simple rules: 1. Be sure to carefully rea

Mounting Location The mounting location and position of your amplifier will have a great effect on its ability to dissipate the heat generated during normal operation. The design of our cast aluminum heatsink serves to easily dissipate the heat generated over a wide range of operating conditions. However, to maxi- mize the performance of your amplifier, care should be taken to ensure ade- quate ventilation. Trunk Mounting Mounting the amplifier vertically on a surface with the fin grooves runnin

Battery and Charging Amplifiers will put an increased load on the vehicle's battery and charging system. We recommend checking your alternator and battery condition to ensure that the electrical system has enough capacity to handle the increased load of your stereo system. Stock electrical systems which are in good condition should be able to handle the extra load of any Rockford amplifier without problems, although battery and alternator life can be reduced slightly. To maximize the performanc

Wiring the System 3. Strip 3/8" from the battery end of the power cable and crimp a large ring terminal to the cable. Use the ring terminal to connect to the battery pos- itive terminal. Do not install the fuse at this time. 4. Prepare a length of cable to be used for the ground connection. Strip 5/8" of insulation from the end of the cable as described above and con- nect to the appropriate terminal of the amplifier. Prepare the chassis ground by scraping any paint from the metal surface and th

Troubleshooting If you are having problems after installation follow the Troubleshooting procedures below. Procedure 1: Check Amplifier for proper connections. Verify that POWER light is on. If POWER light is on skip to Step 2, if not continue. 1. Check in-line fuse on battery positive cable. Replace if necessary. 2. Verify that Ground connection is connected to clean metal of the vehicle’s chassis. Repair/replace if necessary. 3. Verify there is 10.5 - 15.5 Volts of current present at the posit
