awsome!!!!!

This amp pushes 1000 watts the whole time!! Its built strong and will last a lifetime. Ive had it for about 8 months now and not a single problem, great amp!

Best Monoblock Amp

This amplifier is just sonically pristine it has lot's of power at almost any ohms and the bass crossover is just the best. it's parametric so it offers you divine control over your bass. Only a few other brands out there can match quality and power of this monoblock.

this is a testimonial

i paid for a jl 1000/1v2 from d***** c*** car audio back in april and here it is october and guess what! i still dont have the amp or my money back. anyways a month after i ordered from them i got fed up and ordered from here and got this amp 5 days from my order, thats fast service and i love this amp. i have it on 2 13w7s and its nice but i want a second one and when i buy one it will be purchased from these guys because i love the fast service. its all about service.

great amp..boss hog

I would say this amp is crazy powerful and i love it with my 13.5 w6 d4's and it sucks all 190ccs's im giving it. rewired the whole car to 0 gauge and i love the dial ins. the rips system is good deal all around. i paid retail more than anyone would ever pay online but i like to purchase local and have a location to service my items, but regardless of price id do it again. i kinda like there line up of the new hd amps. pretty neat stuff.

great buy

This is a great product produced with jl audios many years of experience. With the great deals from sonic u cant go wrong.

Holy cow!!

This thing is incredible, simply put. I have this run to a 12w7 and its the clearest I've ever heard any music anywhere and its LOUD, I'm proud to say I have this thing and I want you to get it so you can hear it for yourself. Although the price is high, you gotta take the plunge and get yourself some real JL audio because you never heard music until you heard this.

Great desighn

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.

Incredible.

Such an incredible amplifier. The truest 1000 watts ive ever heard. Don't waste your time with Alpine mrp1000, and I'm a HUGE kicker fan but don't even waste your time with their zx1000.1 it just wont compare. This amp paired with a 13W7 talk about one of the cleanest/loudest single sub set up possible. This amp may be expensive but for what you get out of this amp, its not one bit overpriced.

Awesome Amp

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.

jl 1000/1 is a monster

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!

raw power

I would definitely recommend this amp. Problem with this amp that it really sucks out a lot of power from your car but if you give this amp the power it needs. It will blow out 500w speakers like nothing. I went through 4 15" in 4 months. Now have 2 1500w and sometimes it shuts down cause the speakers safety switch on d amp turns on to protect the speaker from blowin' out. Great and powerful amp !!!!!!

alt.

You don't need two Battery's just up Grade the alt. and put the Hammer down, a extra Battery just add's weight to your car and make's your alt charge two Battery's.

ground poundin without even gettin warm

wow! pumped my 13 w7 super nice beast.pros good looking amp,1000 watt rms,runs all day and barely gets toasty,love the rips technology.cons-jl is way to overpriced.this was my first big setup an i feel let down. there are way better amps and subs for way cheaper! like re,fi,sundown,dc,etc.just feel let down.great amp just not worth 700.

BEST AMP EVER!

This is the BEST amp for the price bar-none. It is incredibly stable and consistently powerful from 4ohm all the way down to 1.5ohm. What other amp can consistently push a clean 1,000w through several different impadences than the Vslash? I have one of these monsters pushing two of my Rockford P3D4,12 wired 2ohm each 4ohm total and this amp makes these subs SWEAT HARD!! And they are both rated at 1,000w each!?!?! ALSO word to the wise before installing one of these beasts make sure to upgrade your battery and altinator and nothing under a 130AMP fuse just to be safe because it pulls stupid amounts of power. Also I have a 10farad cap feeding this amp and it sometimes even has a hard time keeping up, this is a serious amp that requires a serious power input. None of that w*****t or b**t b*y trash if you have the money for this amp you don't need to be cheap and skimp out on the wiring...

Excellent Product!!!

The new v2 models are great. They perform way better than the old jl1000s. I would recommend these to anyone.

BUMP BUMP BUMP

Best JL Audio AMP EVER!!!!
gives 100% Real power works well with any sub!!
nice tight base

5 STAR

Excellent

Listen, if you're here reading this you've heard of the JL 1000/1. Its a legendary amp. I lusted after it for years, and finally broke down and bought one about 6 months ago.
I installed it for about 2 hours, then took it right out. Put it back in the box. and Began contemplating exactly what was needed to upgrade my car before i put the JL back in. The fuse rating is 100 in the manual, but dont get things confused, since this amp is regulated, its sucking more power from your vehicle.
At the time, i had 1 JL 450/4v2 and this JL 1000/1v2. It was absolutely DESTROYING my car. I dont have any electrical upgrades, i didnt need it before this amp. So that would be why.
If you plan on getting this, know that you will need at least 1 extra battery. Big 3 with a high output alternator is obviously the right way. But think about it before you buy.
That said, it sounds amazing. The JL slash amps are over rated according to everyone that tests them. ie, the 500/1 got about 650 watts, and im sure this is somewhere along those lines. 1100-1200 watts.
Its obscenely CLEAN, has loads of power, tons of tuning options. Excellent amp.

Awesome amp

I have this amp in my 04 dodge intrepid, it powers 2 12inch L7's in a ported box, and let me tell you it slams. This amp is a little pricey but worth every penny, the built in cross over is very nice allowing you to eliminate any weird clipping noises, strongly recommend this amp.

they is whats up

I LOVE THIS AMP , IT GETS HOT PRETTY QUICK BUT ITS SUMMER TIME, but they could add a a cooling fan , ITS REALLY WORTH THE MONEY I HAVE 2 on 2 12s w7s in my caddilac deville and first time i got it my ears was hurting all night lol true story

Best 1000watt Subamp EVER!!!

AAAAAMAzing amp....went through 2 kicker 1500.1s which both went out on me and finally got this amp. I've had this JL for 6 months now and haven't had any problems at all powering my 2 12" L7s. It's pushing them perfectly and sounds great.

I would definitely recommend jl products for anyone looking for a good amplifier that lasts long.

Sexy

this amp is great, it will make any sub bump to the limit. the price is a bit much but 100% worth it. i have four JL W3 running off this and its sick.
