Tempe, Ariz. – Fosgate Audionics is proud to announce that the FAA1000.5 five-channel modular amplifier is now shipping. With state-of-the-art technology, performance levels and features found in much more expensive units, FAA1000.5 retails for $2,799.00.
“The Fosgate Audionics FAA1000.5 was designed for the demanding home theater enthusiast that is looking for a significant performance improvement and a more dynamic home theater experience,” explains Brian Carlsness, Fosgate Audionics Managing Director. “

It’s the perfect solution for the consumer who owns an all-in-one receiver and is ready to go to the next level of performance that only high quality separate components can provide.”

Fosgate Audionics, a product development and engineering company created by industry legend Jim Fosgate, was acquired by Rockford Corporation in 2000. Mr. Fosgate continues to work with Rockford as an engineering consultant.

FAA1000.5 features include:
• Five slide-in mono amplifier modules
• Class G Trans•ana topology; creates tremendous power headroom and efficiency
• 12-volt trigger for automatic remote turn-on
• Rackmount hardware (available)
• Single red LED (power on) and five blue front panel LEDs (functioning outputs)
• 200 watts per channel
• Highly efficient and compact Switch-Mode power supply eliminates 60-Hz hum fields

A modular design approach allows the customer to configure the amplifier to his or her precise listening needs,” explains Charlie Wood, Fosgate Audionics executive consultant. “The standard configuration is 200 watts x five with MOSFET circuit topology, delivering extraordinary reliability and sonic performance, meeting the listening needs of the most critical listener. Consumers are concerned with product obsolescence as home theater formats continue to change. The beauty of the FAA1000.5 is that you can change its amp configuration whenever you need to.”
