Product Overview

I recently had the chance to try out the Rockville RPA5 1000w Peak/400w RMS 200x2 2 Channel Power Amplifier Pro/DJ Amp. I have used a lot of different amplifiers in my time, so I was excited to check out this one and see how it compared.

The first thing that stood out to me about this amplifier was its design. It has a sleek black finish, with a two rack space unit and heavy duty rack mount ears with handles. This makes the amplifier very easy to transport and set up. The controls are also very intuitive and easy to use. There are separate level controls for both channels, a bridged and stereo output switch, a built in crossover switch, and power, signal, overload, clipping, and protection LED indicators on the front of the amp.

The sound quality of this amplifier is excellent. The frequency response range is 20Hz to 20KHz / 0.5dB, with low distortion levels of 0.03 . The input impedance is 20K Ohm Balanced and 10K Ohm Unbalanced, with a signal to noise ratio of 102dB. All of these specs insure that you get crystal clear sound out of your speakers or subwoofers.

The Rockville RPA5 is perfect for professional DJs or audio engineers who need power and precision in their audio setup. It has maximum headroom for 4 ohm and 8 ohm speakers, as well as computer controlled IC protection circuitry against speaker short circuit, thermal over load, DC over load. It can easily power multiple speakers or subwoofers at once without any issues.

Overall I am very impressed with the Rockville RPA5 1000w Peak/400w RMS 200x2 2 Channel Power Amplifier Pro/DJ Amp. It provides great sound quality with an intuitive design that makes it easy to use. If you are looking for an amplifier that won t break the bank but still delivers powerful performance then this is definitely worth considering!
