Good Amp

JL has a high reputation to uphold, and does not disappoint. I have it pushing 2 JL w1 10's at 4 ohms and they sound amazing. It hits the highs and lows just like any of JL's higher-priced models. I've had it for 8 months and have never had a problem with it, and it doesn't seem to ever get too hot. My only complaint is that when I put the input switch to high, it shuts off. Like I said though, that's the only thing I can find wrong with it. At that price, it's a real bargain.

Awesome Monoblock Amplifier!

Very clean power output for this class A/B monoblock amplifier.
I currently am running 1 JL Audio 10W3v3 subwoofer rated at 600 Watts inside a JL Audio Stealth Box. The amplifier is a JL Audio A-1200 monoblock putting out 500 Watts total. I also am running a pair of Dual XIN 5-1/4" Illuminite Series with blue LED illumination rated at 140 Watts and a pair of Alpine 5-1/4" in my front doors. The head unit is the Kenwood 448U multicolor display deck with USB input on the front panel.

All this equipment is housed inside my 1989 Nissan 300ZX.
My latest db rating has been a whopping 122.2 db all
verified with my Scosche SPL-1000 portable db meter. And
this is just from one 10" JL Audio 10W3v3 subwoofer!

This amplifier you can pound all day long and it only gets slightly hotter to the touch than hot water from a kitchen faucet. Bulletproof and reliable operation. It doesn't get any better than this.
