Why Choose Rockford Fosgate P500-12P Powered Subwoofer?
With Built-in Amplifier
The Punch 500-12P is a self-contained subwoofer enclosure with a built-in amplifier. This "all in one" solution is great for systems that need extra Punch on the low-end of the frequency spectrum. The 12" high-output subwoofer is impedance optimized for the built-in 500-watt class-D amplifier that features a low-pass crossover, bass EQ, and phase switch. You can change the amount of bass on the fly with the included remote level control. The slot port provides powerful output at lower frequencies for enhanced bass reproduction.
Designed and Constructed Using MDF
The enclosure can be connected via speaker-level inputs for connection to factory systems, or traditional line-level inputs for aftermarket systems. It also features an intelligent auto turn-on/off circuit that eliminates the need for a separate turn-on wire. The enclosure itself is precision-designed and constructed using MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) for the best acoustical properties and covered with a heat-activated vinyl finish to resist marks.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- • Why is there no bass after installation?
Check the power, ground, input signal, and speaker connections. Verify the gain and crossover are set correctly.
- • Why does the bass sound distorted?
Lower the gain and bass boost. Excessive input levels, clipping, or incorrect settings can cause distortion.
- • Why does it shut off at high volume?
Overheating, low voltage, or excessive input levels can trigger protection. Check the power connections and settings.
- • Why is the bass weaker than expected?
Check the gain, crossover, polarity, and enclosure placement. Incorrect settings or placement can reduce bass output.
- • Why does it make a popping sound?
Popping can result from signal issues, loose connections, or improper gain settings. Check the input and power wiring.
- • Why do I hear engine noise through the bass?
Engine noise can come from grounding or signal interference. Check the ground and keep signal cables away from power wires.
- • Why does the bass cut out while driving?
Loose power, ground, or signal connections can cause intermittent output. Inspect and secure all wiring.
- • Can it work with a factory stereo?
Yes, depending on the vehicle and available signal connections. Confirm the required input method before installation.
- • Why does the enclosure get very hot?
Some heat is normal, but excessive heat may indicate poor ventilation or sustained high output. Allow adequate airflow around the unit.
- • What should I check if it suddenly stops working?
Check the fuse, power and ground, input signal, and protection indicators. Inspect for loose or damaged wiring before testing again.
