I have been looking around and a cannot find out what voltage RF rates their amps in for RMS output. Can anyone help me out here?

 

By law RF is required to list their advertised power ratings at 12V. If they don't specify that the ratings were at 14.4V then they must be 12V ratings.

 

I don't know what they rate their amps at voltage wise but on the birthsheets they use 14.4.

The MTX amp I have sitting on the shelf at home (6500D) put out 624 watts RMS on it's birthsheet which is impressive all to itself and then I noticed that was at like 12.5 volts. Makes for a nice strong amp that at higher voltages puts out even more!

 

Well.. the extra voltage may, or may not help you -- depending on your power supply.. If you have a regulated power supply, what you get at 12V is pretty much what you get.. If your power supply is unregulated, the additional voltage will translate to more power -- at the cost of losing power if your voltage falls below 12V.. I'm certainly not an expert here, but I believe RF had (still has??) some proprietary technology that allowed them to have the best of both worlds -- whether this information is still current, I'm not sure..
