JL Audio Slash v2 Amplifiers
The original Slash amplifiers set new performance standards for automotive amplification and became the best-selling premium mobile amplifiers in history. The new Slash v2 amplifiers build on this legendary technology platform, enhancing it in a variety of key areas, like radically improved thermal performance, a beautiful new stackable chassis design and dozens of tweaks aimed at improving performance, flexibility and reliability. There is no magic and no guesswork here... just pure technology, refined to the last detail.
The R.I.P.S. System
R.I.P.S. stands for "Regulated, Intelligent Power Supply" and is a central feature of JL Audio's Slash v2 amplifiers. The remarkable R.I.P.S. System™ ensures consistent power delivery over a wide range of battery voltages and load impedance's.
"Regulated" means that the power supply adjusts its operation so as to maintain the amplifier's rated power output and low distortion operation over a wide range of vehicle voltages.
The "Intelligent" portion of the R.I.P.S. System is a circuit that actually monitors output current to optimize the amplifier's output power over a wide range of load impedance (1.5 ohm to 4 ohm per channel).

This Amp rocks! This thing pounds out 1000watts all day long. Rock solid. You can make your subs sound any way you want with the incredible amount of "dial in" features on this amp. There are so many ways to "tweak" the sound of your subs, you can't go wrong with this amp.

This is a good amp, just pretty pricey as all JL products are. A friend runs this with 2 10" w7s and it pounds. They sound great! Another friend installed one in his car and the amp fried, quick! It was all his fault. He wired down to 1ohm and these amps are not 1ohm stable. He also had bad wiring and had the gain turned almost max! Lets just say, its a huge paperweight now. The RIPS technology is crazy. From 4-1.5ohm, you still get the same power! Other then the 1ohm stable part, good amp.

I bought one of these on eBay for a great price and there's no way I'd ever buy another brand again. The jl amps are true power and the price shows it. I used kicker, Fosgate, and hifonics but not anymore. I got 2 12" Fosgate power t1s on this amp, not only does rap music tear my car apart but so does fast beat metal, so clean, so good!
