Good Clean Power

Putting out over 1000 on 3x GTO1014D at 2.67 ohms.
Gain adjustment CD DOES NOT WORK if crossover is BEFORE amp. Only work if using full range signal to tune gain.
Seems efficient. Doesn't draw as hard as other amps in it's class.
I port low, so subsonic isn't necessary for me. Would be a good add feature though.
In cold weather, plays terrible until warm.
Soft shutdown and restart feature for over driving is nice too.

Great Amp

There is nothing negative to say about this amp. It's worth every penny and my JL W3's have never hit harder and cleaner than they do powered by this amp. Would suggest running it with a Kinetic 600 as a back up battery as this amp is very efficient and really does perform as rated, unlike other make believe amps out there.

Amp

This amp has been great. I now have two one in our boat and one in my truck. The boat is now one of the best sounding systems I've ever heared. Although in my truck when I push it to hard it shuts off. I've checked my gain several times and it's okay but it only does it if it gets pushed hard for a minute or two. Other than that it's an amazing amp and my brother just go one because he likes mine so much.

Impressive

I have been a Rockford Fosgate fan for a long time and have owned several of their amps in the past and I have been more than happy. Punch amps were desired this time but they don't come cheap and money was a deciding factor with this setup. I have only had this amp for a short time but I am very impressed with the power. This amp is strong!!!!!!! I knew it would do over rated after seeing the 500RMS version do over 700 watts while being tested by the great Steve Meade. JBL makes good quality products and you won't be disappointed. If you are strapped for cash and only need beteween 900 and a probable 1200 watts RMS with the proper electrical. "GET THIS AMP".

NIce Amp

I have it pushing two 12" American Bass XD subs. The amp does what I wanted. Only thing missing is the subsonic filter as mention by another person. I had issues at first The subs were weak and seemed under powered. . I Then messed with the head unit settings and it cured the problem. I bought it over a month or so ago and just got around to installing it last weekend. So basically after subwoofer break in , I cranked it up the last few days. No complaints so far.
