Rockville RXH-F5 5-Channel Hybrid Car Audio Amplifier 3200W Peak / 800W RMS

First order arrived pretty beat up, returned and this one looked better. I didn't think to take pictures as I went, but grabbed a couple post install. This was purchased for my wife's jeep wrangler unlimited. She wanted to retain the stock radio, but the sound quality and volume level were pathetic. This was installed under the driver's seat, with a hand made set of brackets. Bolting to the seat frame and holding it just out of site and off the floor (2 inch plate iron from home depot used, but I would recommend aluminum if I was doing this again. This stuff is overkill, even at 1/8 inch.) The amp fit perfectly this way, wires are far enough under they won't be hit and lots of air flow to keep things cool. As far as performance, using line level input from the jeep radio I didn't expect much. We're running 8 midrange speakers (3 way 6.5 and 2 way 3.5 in soundbar and dash) at 2ohm this amp fits these speakers perfect. They can handle all it offers and scream with beautiful clarity. The sub we choose was a 10 inch bazooka I've had on hand for 10 years plus. Still in box lol. Running off the single channel at 4ohms the amp can easily over power it... and before I even had a chance to break it in, our teens made it bellow smoke on a grocery run. Even with the early abuse, it still provides a very solid thump, enough to perfectly compliment the high end. Loud enough that the wife will not turn it up at all and the sub gain is set at min. She describes it as not being able to see when the bass hits... at some point I may purchase a higher end dvc sub in a decent box and push it enough to heat up this amp, but for now, I don't see it ever sitting down for thermal. Overall, I will likely buy this amp again for my next teens upcoming vehicle. Pretty much perfect for the cost, power output is as expected on front stage, better than expected on sub channel.

Arrived before any other part I ordered, so it sat looking pretty. Scared to hook up such a low price amp I did, took me and a friend a night to install it in my 06 mazda 3, we had to yank the bose amp and speakers. This thing drives some nice speakers, I probably could cook an egg on it. But a week has gone by and it is delivering & doesn't quit. Can't turn the volume all the way up... too loud. Pair this with some nice mid range speakers like JBL GTO or Rockfordfosgate punches. I have the gto components in my front and punches in the back. It drives the hell out of my crappy Sony xplod subwoofer (the speakers make it sound like garbage... makes me want to upgrade the sub >:) I am thoroughly satisfied. A solid amp for the price I have the 4 year warranty just in case, but so far this thing puts out the power measured each speaker with an oscilloscope it is putting over 65w rms to each speaker at 2 ohm. (That's measured by a test tones at around 45 on my pioneer hu) Its a beast. I'll update the 5th mono channel when I get a sub (or two) worth mentioning. LOUD. hot. Solid. If you run 4gauge make sure it's quality. She sucks a descent amount of amps. Don't kill a descent amp by throwing in a $20 hookup kit.

This amp is great for the price. It sounds good and easy to tune. I would buy again. Installed under the rear seat in my jeep. I have 2 - 6 1/2's, 2 - 6X9's, and 1 - 10" Rockford shallow mount sub hooked up and they all sound good. Sub has a lot of bass. Amp gets really warm tho.

This is a fantastic amplifier and it is a screaming deal at this price. I have never had a 5-channel amplifier have this much power without dimming my headlights, and not only does this one put out ridiculously rated power but it does so in a clean sounding fashion and just wakes up my subwoofers (and neighbors if I'm not careful). I love the attention to detail - power & ground terminals hold 4 AWG wire with no trimming or reducers needed, the green led is on but not blinding, and the INCLUDED bass knob has no led to distract while driving. Class AB on channels 1-4 is clear and loud, and class D on channel 5 is pure clean power; truly the best of both worlds. I am driving 4 3-ohm 6x9s with the 4 front channels and 2 12s (2-ohm load) with the subwoofer channel and I can't ask for any more, AT ANY PRICE. There simply is no better amp deal out there, and the price only makes this even better. UPDATE: I put this amp through its paces during a 115+ degree weekend in 'Copa County, AZ and NO OVERHEATING, just one more reason to recommend it. For comparison, my previous class AB amps (Powerbass ASA1100.5 and Soundstream RUB5.800) couldn't make it 25 minutes before overheating, and my previous class D amp (Powerbass XAX 5670FD) did not sound anywhere near as clear as this amp.

Good..perfect sound

INSTALLED THIS AMP BALANCED EVERYTHING ,SOUNDED GOOD FOR ABOUT A HALF AN HOUR , IT GOT VERY HOT . CAME BACK NEXT MORNING IN 5 CHANNEL MODE ONLY THE 2 FRONT SPEAKERS WERE WORKING , CHECKED EVERYTHING IN SYSTEM ALL GOOD AMP SUCKS DONT BUY IT !

Makes my 2nd rockville amp. This has to be the best budget friendly 5 channel amp out there that actually does its rated rms power. Have this amp on 4 kicker csc65 and man its loud and clear. Have sub channel on a jbl 12 gto band pass @ 4ohm and its slapping it silly. Good thing is i have room for a better sub later if decide to upgrade same with my other door and deck i can run 2 ohm and get moooooore powaaaaaa but im happy atm and just going enjoy what i have now. Rockville is a great product. They even sent me a free t-shirt a few years back! Love their amps!

Not bad better out there for that price.

I don't think this amp can be beat in its price range. Great sound , lots of flexibility. I have this amp installed for 2 months now, and so far I really like it. Be sure to run a 4 guage copper power wire, no that copper covered aluminum stuff! This amp loves power , and in return will get you the sound you want!

Bueno, antes que nada quiero comentarles que tenia mis dudas acerca de este amplificador pero por fin me decidí y les puedo decir que estoy realmente contento con mi compra pues este amplificador lo compre ya que queria alimentar un par de 6.5" 65 w rms, un par de 6x9 65w rms y un subwofer doble bobina de 8" 600w rms pues lo que queria era mejorar el audio de mi peugeot 307 sedan y no queria mucho ruido del bajo por eso me decidí por el de 8" El sonido de las 4 bocinas se escuchaba impresionante y con un sonido cristalino y nitido pero el del subwofer era muy apagado, así que lo cambie por uno de 10" de doble bobina de 800w rms y pues con el mismo resultado , un desempeño pobre ....me anime a pedir soporte de como hacer una buena eleccion de un subwofers para el amplificador y me dijeron que si conectaba a 4 ohms tenia 350w para un subwofer y si conectaba a 2 ohms tenia 500w rms en el canal 5 dedicado al subwofer y que tenia que instalar un subwofer de los mismos wtts rms que tenia en el amplificador y me fui a comprar dos subwofer de 12" de una bobina de 300 w rms cada uno y conecte el cajon con dos subwofer de 300 de 12", el par de bocinas de 6.5 y el par de vocinas 6x9 y suena todo increible, El cajon patea muy fuerte y estoy muy contento con el resultado 100% es un amplificador recomendado solo tienes que poner atencion en los componentes indicados y tendras un excelente car audio

I have had this amp for at least 6 months now with no issues. Amp is loud and sounds awesome. The first two months I had it, if I really cranked it I could smell burning. But since then I turn the volume to 80% max and I have had no issues and that is still enough to rattle my rear-view mirror off it's mount. Great amp for the price, would buy again.

Works good, powers the whole system well

I used to own a car audio shop and I hated selling cheap crap as it cost me too much in warranty returns. This may sell cheap but what an amp.... I can't think of anything on the market that delivers more power for the money. As for the overheating issue, I made a custom amp rack with an opening underneath the amp. I installed 3 5" DC fans underneath and I can abuse it for 6 hours of constant driving and no overheating issues. It's all about how it's installed. Also, I have a stock 90 amps alternator with big 3 upgrade and I rarely dip below 13.5 volts. I wish I had known about those amps years ago.
