Bass hungry, power hungry
I have this amp for my JL 12W7. The amp pushes the sub great, and sounds awesome. If you want big bass, this is definitely the way to go. This amp will be able to keep up with almost anything you can throw at it. The amp powers the sub without a problem. The one downside of this amp though, is it is definitely power hungry. I mean, what do you expect from a 1000 watt amp, but I would recommend a battery or alternator upgrade to go along with this amp if you can afford it.

Awesome amp
I have owned two of these amps for about a year and they are awesome. They have great sound quality. I heard bass notes with this amp that i've never heard on my old one. For a while I had this ran on two T5 soundstream. They did great on my sound quality but for massive bass my 1606 Hifonics Brutus did better because I was able to wire it at 1 Ohm load pushing 1600 watts.

great
this amp is just one of those things all other companies envy. its perfect and if you have a 13.5 w7 or 12 w7 you cant get a better match for subs and amps.

JL vs Kicker
Lesson: you get what you pay for. I replaced my kicker kx750.1 for the 1000/1 to power my 12" L7. What a difference. Running my gain lower than I did with my 750, the sound level is higher but more importantly the sound quality is incredibly better. Tracks with low bass hits that made my L7 sound like crap now hit hard and sound great. What sucks is that I just installed the 750.1 a couple of months ago with the L7. I was pretty disappointed with the sub until I started doing some research and realized it could be the amp. Turns out it was.
On a side note, be aware that this amp draws a lot of power. The 1 farad capacitor that handled the 750.1 doesn't even come close to supplying enough power for the 1000/1. I just ordered a kinetic battery too keep up with this monster.

JL MAN!!!
This is one of the best amps that you can get! The JL AUDIO 1000/1 is a serious amp for those, who are serious about music. I recommend this amp to anyone who's hungry for BASS!! At this price you couldn't ask for anything more, Thanks Sonic!!

Incredible Amp
If you need 1000 watts RMS buy this amp. Great Price, Great Value, awesome looks, and very flexible. Your subs will pound and you will not be dissapointed. Have this hooked up to 1 JL12W7 and my eyeballs shake.

Fantastic Power Supply
I love this amp. I have 3 10w3v2's running off of this amp, and even though the ohm load isn't up to par with JL's recommendations, the subs still sound great, and the amp is easy to use, and very reliable! It's a pricey amp, but well worth the money

Unbelievable
This amp is among the top 3 with Zapco and Xtant, and at the current price, makes even thinking about the other 2 a dumb idea. Amazing output, amazing versatility, amazing amp. Very durable too. Worth every penny.

Amazing! Can't think of a better word.
I have owned 4 slash series amps:three 1000/1 and a 300/4. I have sold 2 of the 1000/1 because I am upgrading to the v2. I was very surprized with this amp. I have ran many systems on this amp alone: 15" 08 Kicker L7, 1 Jl 13w7, 3 Alpine type r 12", 2 soundstream T5 12. I recently owned a Memphis MCD-1500 and this amp actually pushed my subs harder and cleaner than it. I did not buy any of mine off the net but from a dealer but this is still a great price for this amp considering they were over 3700 for me.

The Best amp
This is by far the best amp I ever owned it has incredible power i have 3 12W6 V2 hooked up to it and it hits hard people can hear me blocks away, the best thing about this amp is that from 1.5 to 4 ohm it will still put out 1,000 watts no mather what not like others, if you have the money dont settle for anything else and get this amp.

worked good for 6 months.
I bought this amp used for $400 on Craigslist years ago. It had pretty good sound was was extremely powerful. Was popping my 100amp fuses nonstop. I don't know if the guy I bought it from ghetto rigged it or what, but it lasted 6 months then had an internal fire. I also was told from a car-toys worker that the same thing happened to his 1000/1. I also have a friend who had the 250/1 installed by car-toys under warranty and he had about 3 replaced. So maybe it was a defective product and the v2 is different I don't know. It's a lot of money to have burned away though.

Definately worth the money
This amplifier is amazing, not only does the R.I.P.S. technology allow it to self adjust to any ohm independence between 1.5 and 4 to put out a 1000W RMS, but it looks great too. The bass output is so clear, even at high volumes, and the built in equalizer helps in keeping your subwoofer safe from frequencies out of its reproduction range. Definitely THE best amplifier I have used, a little expensive, but if you save up it is worth it.

I have one of these running 2 JL 12w6. The power is clean and the flexibility is awsome. It really runs a clean 1000watts rms. Great buy and reliability. JL amps are all I will ever use.(I also own a JL 300-4)

This Amp. Is a Monster!!!
This amp gives off monstrous power!! It gives that deep bass that many mono block amps lack! If you are looking for the truest bass, without loosing music quality, then this is definately the amp for you!
