– 1 – I NTRODUCTION T ECHNICAL D ESIGN F EA TURES The RF 5.3x is a 5-channel amplifier with four stereo channels and a single bridged/mono channel for accommodating “single amplifier” system designs at a competitive price. Since this manual provides information on the features, installation and operation of the Rockford Fosgate 5.3x amplifi[...]

◆ TOP AZ (T racking Operation Pre-Amplifier Zone) The TOPAZ ( T racking O peration P re- A mplifier Z one) circuitry solves ground loop noise problems common to automotive amplifier design. This innovative new development allows vastly improved isolation of the input signal grounds from the power supply ground of the amplifier. This is accomplish[...]

– 3 – ◆ DSM (Discrete Surface Mount) Technology The DSM (Discrete Surface Mount) manufacturing process combines the advantages of both discrete components and integrated circuitry. Rockford Fosgate is the only American amplifier manufacturer to have invested millions into this process. DSM components differ from conventional discrete componen[...]

– 4 – ◆ High Level Inputs The high level inputs on the Rockford Fosgate amplifiers convert the speaker line outputs (high level) to preamp line inputs (low level). This allows amplifier compatibility with a variety of source units as well as the ability to integrate into factory systems without the need for external adapters. THE RESULT: Allo[...]

– 8 – M OUNTING L OCA TION 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 aluminum heatsink serves to easily dissipate the heat generated over a wide range of operating condi- tions. However, to maximize the performance of yo[...]

B A TTERY AND C HARGING 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 [...]

– 10 – Trim the power cable within 18" of the battery and strip 1/2" of insulation from the end of the wire. Cut the wire loop that is attached to the fuseholder in half and splice the fuse into the power line using appropriate inline connectors. Use the section of cable that was trimmed earlier and connect it to the other end of the [...]
