Features
Overview: The Rockford Fosgate Punch P300-12 is an all-in-one
bass solution featuring a 12" woofer in an enclosure made from 5/8" MDF
and a built-in 300 watt RMS amplifier.
Closed-Loop Design: The closed-loop designed ensures optimum
performance of the woofer, amplifier, and enclosure system.
Integrated Amplifier: The 12" woofer is powered by a
built-in amplifier rated at 300 watts RMS/600 watts peak.
Quick Disconnect Power/Ground: The power, ground, and remote
turn-on wires attach to a quick disconnect terminal block, so the subwoofer can
be easily removed when you need more storage space. Each terminal is a set screw,
the power and ground will accept up to 4 gauge wire (minimum 8 gauge recommend)
and the remote turn-on will accept up to 8 gauge wire.
Audio Inputs: The amplifier section will accept either a line
level (RCA) or speaker level signal. The included 10" input harness has a Molex
plug on one end and female stereo RCA jacks on the other. When using a speaker level
input, cut the RCA jacks off and splice into the remaining wires. Adjust the Input
Level switch to match your input type (Hi/Lo).
Auto Turn-On: The Auto Turn-On switch offers three options:
- REM: the amp turns on when +12 volts
DC is applied to the remote terminal
- DC Offset: the amp turns on when a 6
volt surge is detected on the signal inputs (from a speaker
level source)
- Audio: the amp turns on when an
ncoming audio signal is detected (can be used with line
level or speaker level inputs)
Gain control: The rotary gain control allows you to match
the output level of your headunit to the input level of the powered subwoofer
(100mV-3V).
Crossover: The 12 db/oct low-pass crossover is always engaged;
the crossover point is adjustable from 50 to 200 Hz.
Bass Boost: Use the rotary dial to adjust the bass boost;
continuously variable from 0 to +12 dB, centered at 45 Hz.
Phase: A switch allows you to reverse the phase of the
subwoofer (0°, 180°).
Protection Circuit: The P300-12 is equipped with thermal
overload, over voltage, and short circuit protection. The amplifier will shut
down if any of these situations is encountered.
Punch Level Control: A wired Punch Level Control is included
so you can adjust the output level from the driver's seat. The remote has a bracket
to mount it under the dash. The included 17-1/2' cable, with a 3.5mm mini-plug on
each end, connects the remote to the subwoofer.
Note: The Punch Level Control measures
approximately 2-3/8" wide x 1" high x 2" deep
(3-1/2" deep including the knob and cable).
Dimensions: The dimensions listed in Features and Specs
include the subwoofer's grille, and the power and signal wiring harnesses, which
add approximately 7/8 of an inch and 1/2 an inch respectively. The depth of just
the enclosure is 10-7/8 inches at the base and 7-1/8 inches at the top. The
width without wiring is 19-7/8 inches.
