  • Page 1 OWNERS MANUAL...
  • Page 2 Our competition is satisfied with just continuing to build the same units year after year without thought for improvement, but not Rockville. We consider it our mission to use our expertise in developing the latest technologies and to bring you the absolute best sounding amplifiers on the market and of course at a reasonable price.
  • Page 3 (You can only imagine what they sound like.) Rockville uses only true audio transistors in the audio To reset the amplifier, you must first diagnose what caused the problem, correct the fault section of these amplifiers.

  • Page 4: Battery Voltage

    BATTERY VOLTAGE: Rockville RX Phenom Series amplifiers are rated and regulated to 13.8 volts and below. Increasing DC Offset Protection: Should any DC voltage try to enter the amplifier via the speaker voltage to 14.4 volts will increase the power output of the amplifier in the same proportion. Maximum terminals it will cause the amplifier to shut down and not operate until this condition is input voltage is 14.4 volts while the minimum voltage is 12 volts.
  • Page 5 Installation Basics The remote turn on connection is located on the barrier strip next to the power and ground SETTING THE CONTROLS: connections. This connection is responsible for turning the amplifier on and off with the rest of the system. A smaller gauge wire can be used to make this connection to your radio’s power AUDIO PREAMP INPUT antenna lead.
  • Page 6 Installation Basics ADJUSTING THE SYSTEM USING THE ELECTRONIC CROSSOVER - 4 CHANNEL MODELS The four and five channel models feature separate crossovers for channels 1-2, 3-4, Once the system is operational, the first thing to do, is set all crossover points to approximate and 5.
  • Page 8 Special Features HIGH LEVEL INPUTS Many factory radios do not have pre-amp outputs thus these Phenom amp models feature High Level inputs: RXA-F1, RXA-F2, RXA-T1, and RXH-F5. High Level inputs, also referred to as Speaker Level inputs, allow you to connect to the factory speaker wires.
  • Page 9 CLONE FUNCTION The Phenom RXA-F1 and RXA-F2 feature a unique CLONE FUNCTION to assist in setting up a 2-channel bridged system with perfect gain and crossover tracking between the speakers. Typically when setting up a system you would need to set up channels 1 - 2 and then channels 3 - 4 crossovers and gains separately not guaranteeing perfect balance or frequency cutoffs.
  • Page 10 4 Channel Amp with 2 C hannel Input If your head unit has only one pair of Left and Right RCA out put jacks, plug them in to RCA input Jacks 1 and 2 of the amplifier and set the Input model switch to the 2CH position.
  • Page 11 4 Channel Amp with 4 C hannel Input If your head unit has 2 pairs of RCA output jacks, input Front Left and Front Right in to Channels 1 and 2. Then attach radio output Rear Left and Rear Right to Channels 3 and 4. Set the Input Mode Switch to 4Ch position.

  • Page 25 Twin Amplifier Bridging Once again, when bridging two amplifiers together, the final impedance load of the bridged amplifiers should be no lower than 2-ohms. Double power will occur at 2-ohms. Master amplifiers positive (+) speaker terminal should be wired to the positive terminal of the subwoofer. Slave amplifiers positive (+) speaker terminal should be wired to negative terminal of the subwoofer.
