JL Audio XD800/8v2 - XDv2 Series 8-Channel Class D Full-Range Amplifier

This potent 8-Channel amplifier employs JL Audio's high-speed NexD switching design to achieve unprecedented efficiency and amazing power output in an ultra-compact chassis. Don't let the small size fool you, though... this amplifier is capable of serious power, delivering a full 800W of continuous total power into a 2 ohm load (14.4V, 1% THD). Targeted specifically for an audiophile-grade system, the XD800/8v2 includes a variable mode low-pass/high-pass filter with a continuously variable cutoff frequency selection from 50-500 Hz. With the XD800/8v2, you have lots of great options. Use it as an eight-channel satellite amplifier with 75 W x 8 @ 4 ohm , or bridge four of its channels to create a staggered power six-channel amplifier with 200 W x 2 @ 4 ohm for your front satellites and 75 W x 4 @ 4 ohm for your rear satellites. You can also drive two subwoofers with 200 W each, plus a set of satellites with 75W x 4.

The XD800/8v2 also features the v2 Spec feature set, which consists of automatic turn-on capability (via signal sensing or DC-offset sensing), and a dual-range differential balanced input section able to handle a wide range of input voltage levels. With the addition of an HD-RLC remote level control (sold separately), you can control the volume of one, two or all three channel pairs of the XD800/8v2 from the front of the vehicle. This amplifier features a black powder-coat finish and a gasketed, brushed aluminum cover for the controls.


Advanced Rollback Protection

JL Audio's signature Advanced Thermal Rollback protection system eliminates annoying thermal shutdown events to keep the music playing, even under the most demanding conditions. Should the amplifier reach an unsafe operating temperature, a special circuit rolls back peak power output, without changing gain, until the amplifier cools down to a safe operating temperature. The red "Thermal" LED will light to indicate this condition has been reached. Once the amplifier cools down, the circuit restores full peak power output and the red "Thermal" indicator reverts to its normal state. The operation of Advanced Rollback Protection is inaudible in most cases.


NexD Switching Technology

From the same minds that gave us the technology found in the 'Slash' amplifiers, JL Audio has taken the simple fixed PWM design approach and enhanced it with a very high switching frequency. Full-range NexD amplifiers and channels feature a variable, ultra-high speed version of the NexD technology (switching at well over 400 kHz). In these designs, a self-oscillating modulator with "feed-forward" sends information about the instantaneous power supply voltage to the modulator, combining this with the input signal to cancel out any distortion due to supply voltage fluctuation. This reduces distortion prior to applying feedback, simplifying the overall feedback loop design.

Excellent value for all this does

Married this AMP to JL Audio's C2-650 front door speakers and their C2-570X rear for speakers and a pair of 10W3v3 subwoofers able to run everything off this one amp sounds clear as day behind the pioneer avic-8000NEX

The Pioneer Experience Again

I bought this unit due to past experiences with Pioneer, and because of the usb port, cd playing capability, and price. Other than one issue I love my purchase. Two weeks after the install by a professional installer, and seconds after putting my truck in drive and taking off, my subs stopped playing and I immediately suspected the amp-JL Audio XD800/8v2-had stopped functioning. For whatever reason, the audio in signal from the radio for the subs weren't sending a signal to the rca line-in jacks on the amp going to the subs. I switched from 6-channel mode to 4-channel mode on the amp and took the rca-in plugs from the 3/4 linepin jacks and fed the 5/6 rca-in jacks; this allowed all 8-channels on the amp to output to the speakers. I'm not sure if the installer crossed up wires when installing or this is an internal problem with the head-unit. It's playing and sounding good. I using some 6 1/2 Cerwin Vega subs due to not wanting cabin shaking bass; I'm going to go up to 8-inch subs or maybe even 10 for some deeper base. They play well, but not as deep as I like to them.
