Had a old school rodek in the early 90s.good amps

[@audiokeller1975]

I never had one but a friend and i remember it was powerful 😊👍

I remember seeing the advertisements for Rodek in the magazines. They were quite expensive. I don't think I ever saw one in person. They were definitely not common. It kind of reminds me of the Lunar amps. Expensive and obscure.

[@audiokeller1975]

Do you remember in which year you saw these adverts?

[@JasonWW2000]

I don't really remember. It was maybe 92 to 96. It was my early days of buying car audio magazines. You might want to check with Big D Williston. He supposedly has an online database of old car audio magazines. You might be able to type in a search and find their ads. Or just flip through some of the uploaded mags. I've never looked into it so I don't have any links.

Hello how did you calculate the output power can you plz share the formula thx

[@audiokeller1975]

Yes, no problem: peak voltage/ 1.414 to get RMS voltage, then RMS voltage *RMS voltage/ resistor value. That’s it. If tested bridged mono then again /2 to get power per channel 😊
