Rocketbox info thread !!! Made in the USA with a reasonable pricetag !

The Palomar ERF9530 is what the Rocketbox website says is used. IDK for sure but Whatever they are they work quite well & have very low amperage draw. The amp pictured above has been through Hell & back for the past year & still works as well as the first time I hooked it up. The Sound Quality is much better than the bipolar two pill mrf455 amp it replaced.

If the sound quality on the bipolar amplifier was poor, it sure was not due to the MRF455 transistors it used. More than likly it was being overdriven because those transistors, have much more gain than the switch mode MOSFET's and require less drive power.

I never said the sound quality was "poor" on the Motorola mrf455 transistors.
I said the Mosfet amp sounded "Much better" Both amps were used with the same direct injected audio system so they were not being overdriven & had plenty of head room.

Linear amplifiers do not alter the audio in any way, unless the amplifier is not running linear. The drive requirements for two MRF455's, is also going to be noticeably lower than any MOSFET likely to be used in the other two pill.

If I were the builder, I'd be really careful disclosing where I am. Too many eyes. Just my 2 cents.
