Rockford Fosgate Adds Two New Amplifiers to Punch BRT Line

12 years, 11 months ago Rockford Fosgate, Tempe, AZ., USA

Rockford Fosgate, the industry leader in high-performance car audio systems, announced that it will introduce its two latest additions to its Punch BRT amplifier line, the 300-Watt PBR300X2 2-channel and the 500-Watt PBR500X1 mono block, at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nev. from Jan. 10-12, 2012, in The Palms Ballroom.

“The PBR300X2 and the PBR500X1 Punch amplifiers have been designed for systems that require little space,” explained Theresa Hephner, Rockford senior director, products and marketing. “Our patented BRT (Boosted Rail Technology) is an ultra efficient design that doesn’t use a switching power supply to generate its rated power, which allows for a smaller chassis. The BRT also has a variable hi-level DC offset turn-on circuit for easy installation into any OEM system. It’s great for smaller stealth installations, as well as for motorcycles and recreational vehicles.”

Expected to ship Q1 2012, the ultra-compact PBR300X2 and PBR500X1 are the latest addition to Rockford Fosgate’s class leading Punch Series of amplifiers. They join the PBR300X4 and PBR300X1.
