This is a perfect example of POWER IN = POWER OUT. Yes kids, if you want to run big amps, you need a good charging system to back it up. I'm very impressed with Rockville's amp here also.

@Facekicker thanks for the dyno. Had been wanting to pull the trigger on purchasing this Rockville amplifier but didn't want to buy it without knowing it could make rated power. Thanks again!

Sweet I been waiting on someone to dyno these amps.

That’s crazy but shocking the volt meter didn’t change ! Keep up the good work Jason Jones !!! Glad to do business with you any day !!

The voltmeters goes off remote wire input so you would need to put on relay if you want accurate results

Your vids are greatly appreciated.

Very impressed I might look into this amp although it’s hard to part with my Rockford Fosgate system. My new goal though is to build a high efficient system with less dollars Just to see all the new hype is with all the new products. I’m old school so we’ll see. Thanks great job.

Hell yeah! New sub here. Loving your channel. Keep up the great content.

Nice. Maybe Rockville is trying to improve their image after the whole sub fiasco. That and the 3 different ratings on the amps. If it's a 1500 watt RMS amp, just give us that rating. We don't need some explanation like 3000 watt when comparing to Hifonics and 6000 watt when comparing to Boss. Just tell us what it really does. Maybe include a blurb in the add about not being overrated like some other manufacturers do.

@Facekicker

I agree. Especially about the 3 ratings. Having a CEA rating that differs from what they called an RMS rating was not only wrong but caused tons of confusion. Now they're calling it CEA RMS only, which could be confusing to anyone still going by those prior Rockville definitions. But the good in all of it, we've got a budget amp that does rated power and it seems to be a very solid piece of gear that I wouldn't hesitate to use.

Just subscribed because of this video. I got a question on the 1 ohm load did the amp get hot. And I haven't looked it up but is that based off of the hifonics and mb quart style amps it looks very similar to the inputs.

You should try .5 ohm just for kicks and see if she survives and the power it puts out

I am pleasantly surprised i may actually buy one.

Rockville for the win!!! would love to see if The Rockville ATOM 8 Series 8 channel will do rated

If u read directions for the amp and seen the LIMITER switch u would seen more power and understand why it was reading a constant 13.6 volts !!!!

I'll take an educated guess and say the DBComp4 and DBComp5 use the same power supply section and the DBComp5 just has one or more output devices. If this is the case, the DBComp4 may be more reliable as the power supply would be just a little less stressed. I have used 2 Rockville amps for over 3 years without issues and I might be lucky. Still very pleased with them. I ordered the DBComp4 based on this. I also believe and hope Cadence is still producing Rockville Amps. 30 years car audio experience and was a Cadence dealer for several years back around 2010. The Rockville amp manuals and the Cadence amp manuals are almost verbatim on certain models.
