Amazing amp from an amazing brand

I got this JL Audio JX1000/1D amp to replace my Kenwood KAC-9105D and I know the price is a little steep, but I know that this amp won't crap out on me like my Kenwood one did. I don't have any problems with the JL amp overheating or anything and it does exactly what it's supposed to.

Great Sub Maybe

I have never seen a bad review of this sub. I purchased this sub because of good reviews and the JL brand name. Nobody has mentioned a huge downside of this amp. There is no subsonic filter.

I am trying to put together a high end system and I am feeling uneasy about my purchase. I think I hear distortion because of subsonic noise. I would have chosen another option because this.

Plenty of Clean Power!

The JX1000/!D is another great JL Audio product that puts out plenty of clean power! The amp runs cool and continues to drive subs very well. With the price of the amp, the only addition to the amplifier that JL Audio should include is a RBC-1 control. That control would optimize all types of music!

Crazy Amount Of Power

I have 2 JL Audio 12W3v3 4 ohms(500 RMS a piece) hooked up to this amp. I have the gain all the way down, and have never touched the bass boost. My subwoofers flex extremely hard even with the gain all the way down, which is why I am scared to test the limits of my W3's with this amp by turning up the sensitivity. I have also hooked up my friends Alpine Type R to this amp and had to run to shut the music off because the sub could not nearly handle the power of this amp despite the amp being turned down so low. This amp is power hungry so make sure your subs can handle it!

nice amp

This amp can make any subs sound clean and bump hard. Pros are that it's really durable and it can get down and dirty and ive never had it over heat and shut off atfer hours of use. Cons, none.

Great Amp

Great amp at an even better price. I have it in an RSX hooked up to a single ported JL 8W7 tuned to about 600WRMS @ 3Ohms and its crazy loud. The JX series lacks features that the higher-end models have, but if tuned correctly you're not missing a lot.

Easy to tune, serious power, great price; I would highly recommend this to friends.

Impressive power with a small footprint

I installed this in my wife's 2011 Infiniti qx56. I'm running 1 JL 12w7 and it slams. I added the JL bass knob for more control. I also used a dd1 to set the amps gain level. The bass boost is off and the sub still gets plenty of power. Im using a sealed enclosure and it produces clean tight bass, but it can still get low. I would recommend this for someone looking to save space and is look for some clean sound.

Finally happy in AZ :)

After hooking this amp up, I could hear more detail in the lower frequencies. Pros: awesome unregulated power.
Cons: *crickets chirping*
Might daisy chain this when I get another L7.

Bought for a 10W7, currently using on a 10W3

I bought this and plan on running it @ 3 ohms with a JL 10W7. I currently have it running on a 10W3 @ 2 ohms. Am I getting 1k out of it right now? Probably not as my alternator is only 90 amps. I will see how this does when I put in my 200 amp alternator. In the meantime, this is surprisingly loud. I can't even imagine how this amp would make a 12 W7 sound. It was easy to set up, the wire holes were big enough for my 4awg SHCA oversized wire. It runs cool, I don't have any complaints about it.

Big sound, tiny package

This is a nice sized amp and puts out a monster amount of power. The controls are easy to use and it is nice and compact. The only downfall is the power and ground inputs are right next to each other, I have never been a fan of that.

Great deal

This is a great amp. It pushes my 2 kicker l7 10's with no trouble. I have not had any issues at all. I would definitely buy this amp again. And sonic electronix had great service and speedy delivery. I'm totally happy

Lots of power in a small package

Right out of the box I was impressed by this amplifier. I replaced my JL 500/1v2 slash series amp with this one. It's small in size but packs plenty of power. The controls are simple enough that enthusiast of all levels can make adjustments to their sound. For the price, this is a great amp for those who are just adding a sound system to their ride or looking to upgrade to a more powerful amp on a budget.
