Still don't understand JL's value

I bought this product based off reviews and JL's popular name, I should have done more research. It's a great product, easy to use, but for the price I paid, I just don't understand why. In my lifetime, I've owned Elemental Designs, Hifonics, Bazooka, all with more rms, and paid about the same, if not less. Performance wise, I couldn't tell much of a difference. I would understand if the JX was underrated, but it was rated just right.

I hate how it didn't come with a remote bass knob (sold separately, and for a lot) and not that it matters, but it doesn't have phase or subsonic filter - for that price.

awesome!

This amp is very powerful. I got it installed today with 2 10" JL audio vented subs. It hits harder than my friends setups and they have like 500 and 700 watt amps (they're not JL amps) JL is top of the line in subs and amps and in quality sound! Definitely a good thing to buy because the good price and how powerful it is, therefore you can get a really good wiring kit! Just put it this way, my parents got this for my setup and there pissed cause of how loud the bass is!

Not bad

I bought this amp on impulse at the local shop. I installed it under the seat in my suv and ran the jl ported w1 8" sub/box @ 4ohm. The amp never got hot under the seat, stayed cool after long play. I never tested it @ 2ohm. I ended up buying a bigger amp to run something different. This amp won't produce more than what it is rated, but it will run it's rated power efficiantly and decently clean.

andrew

the jx250/1 is a great little amp for your sub. mine draws a bit too much current and gets a bit hot only when being caned 93db. would suit a 10" perfect. bit small for the 12" 250w rms 2ohm dual coil I run but does the job

Compact and solid performance.

Used this to provide a cleaner, adjustable signal to the factory JBL subwoofer in a Tundra Crewmax. Swapped out the HU and wanted to be able to adjust the sub level for finer tuning ability. This fit perfectly behind the passenger side seat and runs cool and provides plenty of power to the factory sub.

Great Amp

JL amp is driving my 12" woofer. It was easy to install and had great directions for adjusting it to my subwoofer. Urea a great improved to my sound system in my truck. It also really bumps when I want to. I am planning on buying another one.
