Rockford Fosgate 500.2 User Manual

Cast Aluminum Chrome Heatsink – The cast aluminum heatsink of the Punch Power 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.

End Caps – The unique end caps conceal the wiring and input cables, giving the amplifier a clean “stealth” look.

– 5 –

Speaker Terminals – The heavy duty, gold-plated terminal block connectors (+ and –)  will accept wire sizes from

8 AWG to 18 AWG. These gold-plated connectors are immune to corrosion that can cause signal deterioration.

Power Terminals – The heavy duty, gold-plated power and ground connectors will accommodate 4 AWG wire for

maximum input current capability.

REM Terminal – This gold-plated spade terminal is used for the AP (auto power) or remote turn on of the amplifier.

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.

Balanced Line Input– This input will allow the Balanced Line Transmitter (BLT) or any balanced Rockford Fosgate

source unit/signal processor to be used in conjunction with the amplifier to provide better noise rejection.

Signal Input Switch – This switch allows selection of either the RCA or Balanced Line inputs.

RCA Pass-Thru Jacks – The Pass-Thru provides a convenient source for daisychaining an additional amplifier,

eliminating the need for “Y” adapters. The original signal(s) fed into input jack(s) are looped back to the Pass-Thru

output(s).

Input Sensitivity Controls – The input level controls are preset to match the output of most source units. They can

be adjusted to match output levels from a variety of source units.
