Hertz Venezia V5C Compact 5-Channel Marine Amplifier 1010W RMS Class-D

Hertz Venezia V5C is a compact five-channel marine amplifier designed for boat audio systems that need strong full-range speaker power, a dedicated subwoofer channel, and a reduced installation footprint. It uses Hertz Advanced Class-D technology with a fanless die-cast aluminum chassis for efficient output, lower operating temperature, and marine-specific durability.

The Venezia V5C supports 5-channel and 3-channel operation with bridgeable full-range channels for flexible speaker-and-subwoofer system design. It is engineered and tested for marine environments including UV exposure, salt fog, vibration, thermal shock, and temperature changes, and carries IPX2 certification when installed vertically with connections facing downward.
