Rockford punch 201S

[chipper]

I got a punch 201S amp recently currently waiting for it to come. Anyway I was told the power supply is blown and I have some IRFZ44 mosfets on hand and I'd like to know if those would work for the power supply? And possibly with out changing the gate resistors. I don't really know how badly it's damaged but if it wasn't I wonder if I can use those for a sub? Thanks!


P.s this site should have a mobile version? Would be nice

In at least some of these amps, the IRF3205 was the original. If this is your amp and you don't intend to sell it, you can use the Z44s but they won't take as much abuse as the 3205s. You can use the original gate resistors if they have not failed but they generally fail.

Okay, where some ever BUZ103 or BUZ100? And is the 201s similar to a 160a2? Or no? I'm talking about the circuit board? Same amount of output devices & power supply devices.

160a2

It had the BUZ100 (view full size to see more detail).

I'm talking about the 160a2 vs the 201s, are these nearly indectical? Because I noticed that the 2003 models look similar the 1999 or 2000 models. I had a 401s that had a similar circuit board as a 360a2 (same amount of outputs & power supply). Did they use the 99 circuit boards in the 03 amps? Like the 801s also looks like a 800a2 internally.

The boards are different. Did you look at the photo I posted the link for.

Yes I seen it. Do you got a 201s internal pic?

Oh not even close to a 160! This one has the regulators. Thanks perry! One more request from you, do you have a picture of the guts of a punch 360.6 (6 channel amp). Thanks again! Also will report back when I receive my 201s.

 

[Perry Babin]

I don't have any photos of the 360.6.

 

[seankane]

I have several 360.6's would you like me to post a pic??

 

[chipper]

Yes if you can please one, thanks

Do you got any pics? And any from a power 451s? Thanks

 

[seankane]

Here is the pic of the Power 451S board I will upload the 360.6 soon.

I can post a pic of just about any Rockford amp you want, I have 100's.

Doe that board not look like a punch 360a2? Oh okay I have a list of amps I'd like to see inside of:

Rockford punch 301m
Rockford punch 360.6
Rockford punch 400s
Rockford punch 501s
Rockford power 650 & 1000

And yeah that's pretty much it thank you for sharing and cracking my curiosity.

Also if you can squeeze a few more, POWER 300? and POWER 500M & POWER 100HD FOUR CHANNEL. thank you both Perry Babin & seankane.

Here is a brand new Power 300 Mosfet board that has never been installed. I just took it out of the plastic to picture it for you.

I have a question? Could I use a RF punch 160a2 to power a pair of Pioneer hpm-100 home stereo speakers? In a van? For some reason it sounds good with either a Punch 150 or this 160a2. Any other amp I have it won't have that clean "bass line" that I like I know these are only home stereo speakers but trust me they sound like car woofers. I don't own any actuall subwoofers just these speakers. Lmk
