Overview

The T1000-4ad combines sound quality characteristics of Class-A designs with efficiency of a Class-D in one remarkable package. Superior sound quality is possible through the implementation dynamic switching frequency control. The addition of Constant Power circuitry produces optimized output at a range of impedances. Rockford Fosgate created Class-bd for brute power to run low frequency subwoofers, and now Class-ad offers high fidelity in a full-range configuration.

Excellent amplifier

I'm using this amplifier in a very different way. I have two 200W speakers hooked up to it and a 70 amp power supply powering it and my computer, and believe me it's one of the best sounding amplifiers I've ever heard. Keep making them very excellent.
