The Power T500-1bdCP is a 500 Watt mono amplifier featuring Constant Power delivering up to 25% more power across all impedance loads. The frequency response of the T500-1bdCP is optimized exclusively for use with subwoofers.
Overview
The T500-1bdCP is based on the legendary T500-1bd amplifier design with a proprietary "Constant Power" configuration delivering up to 25% more power (Watts) across all impedance loads. The listening experience is cleaner, louder and more impressive than ever before. With the T500-1bdCP, you can now use an "under-the-seat" dedicated subwoofer amplifier to drive two 4-Ohm DVC subwoofers. This amp will provide enough bass to separate you from those envious car audio geeks.

Technologies
Balanced Differential Inputs
Differential inputs eliminate noise picked up by signal cables.
Constant Power
Constant Power is a patented circuit topology that provides instantaneous delivery of output power over varying impedance loads.
Class BD
Class BD amplifiers have 75-80% efficiency ratings vs. 20-60% efficiency ratings of traditional class A/B amplifiers.
DSM
DSM utilize 1% tight-tolerances improving efficiency of the circuit, decreases cross-talk from other discrete components and lowers operating temperature.
CEA-2006 Compliant
Power ratings on Rockford Fosgate amplifiers conform to CEA-2006 industry standards. These guidelines mean your amplifier's output power ratings are REAL POWER numbers, not inflated marketing ratings.
MEHSA3
MEHSA3 reduces MOSFET temperatures, lowers distortion, increases durability and prolongs the output device life span.
Punch Bass EQ
Pioneered by Jim Fosgate in the early 70's, Punch Bass compensates for acoustical problems common in all cars.
Engineered In The USA
These Avatars are a personal signature from the Rockford Fosgate team member(s) who designed and engineered this fanatic product. This statement illustrates our commitment to being Designed and Engineered in the U.S.A.
TO-247 MOSFETs
(left-OLD | right-NEW) Rockford Fosgate amps use custom TO-247 MOSFETs. These have 60% more metal tab area for more power capacity, lower impedance and improved heat dissipation over traditional TO-220 MOSFETs found in competitor amps.
