Features

Overview: The Rockford Fosgate Punch PS-8 is an all-in-one bass solution featuring an 8" woofer in a cast aluminum enclosure and a built-in 150 watt RMS amplifier.

Closed-Loop Design: The closed-loop design allows Rockford Fosgate to build the woofer, amplifier, and enclosure as a single system, optimizing each element for the best possible performance with the others.

Klippel Verified: The Klippel distortion analyzer, a device that uses a laser and sophisticated software to do large-scale analysis of drivers in motion, lets Rockford Fosgate optimize the speaker's motor structure, voice coil alignment, and suspension to yield the best possible performance.

CEA-2031 and CEA-2006 Compliant: The subwoofer's power handling and the amplifier's power output conform to CEA industry standards, allowing consumers to make an apples-to-apples comparison between the PS-8 and other powered subwoofers bearing the CEA-2031 and CEA-2006 logos.

Integrated Amplifier: The 8" woofer is powered by a built-in Class-D amplifier rated at 150 watts RMS.

Quick Disconnect Power/Ground: The power, ground, and remote turn-on wires attach to a quick disconnect terminal block, so the subwoofer can be easily removed when you need more storage space. Each terminal is a set screw clamp and will accept up to 12-gauge wire.

Audio Inputs: The amplifier section will accept either a line level (RCA) or speaker level signal. The included 12" input harness has a Molex plug on one end and female stereo RCA jacks on the other. When using a speaker level input, cut the RCA jacks off and splice into the remaining wires. Adjust the Input Level switch to match your input type, High for speaker level input or Low for line level (RCA) input.

Auto Turn-On: The Auto Turn-On switch offers three options:

  • REM: the amp turns on when +12 volts DC is applied to the remote terminal
  • DC Offset: the amp turns on when a DC offset voltage is detected on the signal inputs (from a speaker level source)
  • Audio: the amp turns on when an incoming audio signal is detected (can be used with line level or speaker level inputs)

Note: When the DC Offset or Audio setting, the REM terminal becomes a 12 volt output, for turning an additional amplifier on.

Gain control: The rotary gain control allows you to match the output level of your headunit to the input level of the powered subwoofer.

Crossover: The 12 dB/oct low-pass crossover is always engaged; the crossover point is adjustable from 50 to 120 Hz.

Punch EQ: Use the rotary dial to adjust the bass boost; continuously variable from 0 to +12 dB, centered at 45 Hz.

Phase: A switch allows you to reverse the phase of the subwoofer (0°, 180°).

Protection Circuit: The PS-8's amplifier is equipped with thermal overload, short circuit, and reverse polarity protection. The amplifier will shut down if any of these situations is encountered.

Remote Punch Level: A wired Punch Level Control is included so you can adjust the output level from the driver's seat. The remote has a bracket to mount it under the dash. The included 15' cable, with a 3.5mm mini-plug on each end, connects the remote to the subwoofer.

Note: The Punch Level Control measures approximately 2⅜" wide x 1" high x 2" deep (3½" deep including the knob and cable).

Q
How is the long term reliability of this subwoofer?. I read a lot of reviews saying the subwoofer stops working within 11 months of installation.
manue  Nov 02, 2022
1 answer
A
Greetings Manue, and thank you for your question. Crutchfield has no long term data on the Rockford Fosgate PS8 subwoofer. Nothing as far as known issues, and that subwoofer has been out for 7 plus years now. If installed correctly, with proper ventilation, it should last a very long time. With Rockfords reputation for manufacturing great quality audio components for 50 plus years. If this subwoofer had some options at an earlier stage, its been rectified. Its been one of our best selling compact subs a number of years.

no, there is an assembled circuit board in the case that the knob attaches to. The shaft that the dial goes over is not that long to where you might be able to run it through a panel and still attach the dial

Yes. I installed this unit under the drivers seat on my 2016 WRX. Had to slightly trim one of the seat rails to get it to fit easily. Works great. Also note that I was able to run the power wire down the drivers side and the audio down the passenger side and under the back carpet.

I needed no module. Just connected it to my head unit. And of course wired it for power to the positive side of the battery. Comes with instructions and all the parts you will need. Except for any connectors you will need to wire to the head unit.

If the speaker wiring is still there and connect to the car stereo you can use the high level input on the PS8. Look up your car stereo wiring on google or give Crutchfield a call.

jesse  Mar 12, 2019

A
Yes, it has both low level and speaker inputs. I tapped into the rear speakers on my F150, through the wiring harness, and it works great. Different genres of music will need to be adjusted for the bass outputs, but that is easy with the wired remote. I found the wiring harness colors for the rear speakers on the internet.
dennis  Mar 12, 2019
A
As long as you have one sub out rca then yes. This depends on your harness. I used a splitter to keep my stock sub in the loop. This sub is very good at getting the low frequencies that stock just doesn't touch.

jason  Feb 14, 2019
A
I do not have a concrete answer on that. I would venture to say that if you bridge the two amps your bridging your power. Each amp would provide the sound that you dial into it on the side panel. I'm almost positive that each remote bass boost link would function independently. Rockford is awesome at answering specific questions like that, so I've heard from my friends that run a more complex system than what I have.

I have no idea. I do know that it will not fit under my 2009 Subaru Outback seats. I believe the thickness of the unit is listed at 2-7/8 inches. I suggest measuring something and cutting it to that length (e.g. pen, stick, match, etc) and then seeing if the object will stand upright under your Jeep seats.

How easy is removal? Want to install in a Chevy Avalanche under back seat. However if I need to lower the midgate, think I may need to temporary remove from time to time. Once all the wires are run, can I simply unplug everything to remove, and then re-hook up when done?

Should be pretty easy to remove, even if you run speaker wires instead of aux cables, there is an adapter with an plug in for easy removal.

Q
Do subwoofer amps use a different rating standard? Asking because I see this unit has a 10 amp fuse but is rated at 150 watts RMS. How is that even possible when V x A = W ? At an overly optimistic 14.4 volt power source (13.8 volts typically) that yields a max of 144 watts at 100% efficiency. More typically at 13.8 volts and 80% efficiency it's a 110 watt output. I actually have one of these and it works and sounds great but it not a 150 watt amp.
mark  Jan 08, 2017
3 answers
A
I believe that the unit is rated for a fuse up to 30 amps. 30 A x13.8 V x 80% = 330W
david  Oct 25, 2017
A
100% efficiency isn't possible. I owned one and blew it's circuitry by asking "too much". Not just a own fuse. It's actual audible "crossover is nowhere near the low it professed.

Hello Eric, it sounds to me like you want to hook up more than one subwoofer amp off your head unit??
timothy  Jul 03, 2016
A
I'm confused about why you would need a Y-adapter. Just run the sub out to the PS-8. I have mine plugged into the sub output on my equalizer. The equalizer splits out the sub vs non-sub frequencies and I need something to put the bass back into my system. After a little tweaking, it sounds great.

Q
Has anyone combined this unit with a factory Bose system in a GMC truck?
ken  May 22, 2016
2 answers
A
To answer your question, yes (Chevy Silverado, same factory Bose). But I offer this advice, do not expect this unit to be "loud". BUT, it is a great unit to add to the factory bass that the stock Bose speakers produce by themselves. However, I found that placement is everything. Under the driver seat is a great place to start; if your truck is an extended cab, under the back seat on the driver side is a good place too. Depending on how handy you are, best place I found was behind the back seat in my extended cab, mounted flush against the back of the cab. I hope this helps, enjoy the music.
jerrod a  May 24, 2016

I don't have the factory Bose system. Trust me get it! You won't hear you coming down the street but it sounds fantastic inside the truck. My wife's not a huge bass fan but says I was right to install this unit.

We don't have the measurements of the space under the seat in your Murano. We did measure the rear cargo area and there is enough room for it to go there. If it helps any, the measurements on this powered subwoofer are 14-1/2" wide x 9-1/2" deep x 3-3/8" tall. I hope that helps! My Bio: http://www.crutchfield.com/Support/Bio.aspx?bio=101

Can this be wired through the pass through of another amp?
perry007  Feb 26, 2016
1 answer
A
It likely will work with the pass through of the other amp for signal, but that will depend on the output of the other amp. As long as the pass through is full range you should be good to go. I would recommend reaching out to an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat to confirm. They'll be able to take a look at your current amp, and make sure this one will work with it.

You'll just need to look at the dimensions of the PS-8 and then check under your seat. I don't know anything about the Scion. You might have to pull the seat if there is room under it but you can't slide it through the front or back.

Q
can the self contained PS-8 be wired to a cord that turns off with the key, or does it have to go directly to the battery?
mike  Jul 03, 2015
2 answers
A
The red power wire should be wired directly to the battery with the inline fuse to provide high current and to avoid noise and interference from the rest of the car's electrical system. The blue wire is for the remote turn-on and ususally connected to the head unit. Check the installation instructions for additional options for the remote turn on. IF the PS-8 power wire is switched, sound quality may be compromised.
john  Jul 06, 2015
A
Wire it direct to the same (+) as the deck, black to a local ground. Connect blue out of the deck to blue on the PS-8 wire harness. It'll kick on/off with the deck, which is theoretically wired to the ignition.
