Jl Audio JL1000/1 Car Amp

This is another one of JLs high end amps...its a killer amp that puts out more than its rated for under 1 ohm impedance. lasts forever. but for the price of this amp, YOU CAN GET A 3000 WATT RMS 18" Fi BTL SUBWOOFER AND A SUNDOWN SAZ-3000D 3000 WATT RMS and money left over for cables.

its like paying money for a high end for a sports car, while you can get a lower priced import that will run circles with some upgrades.

THE PRODUCT IS THE BEST IN THE MARKET AND GOOD QUALITY, BIT EXPESIVE BUT WORTH EVERY DIME.....I DO NOT TRUST ANY OTHER BRAND

This amplifier is by far the best I've ever used. Other amps, you can have wither SQ or SPL... This amp allows you to have BOTH! JL is very reserved on its claims of this amplifier, from its power rating to how it will clip. They claim to set it up a specific way to minimize clipping, and I run it even stronger and have yet to hear any clipping or distortion of any kind. Definatly worth the money if you are serious about car audio, and JL Audio has the utmost respect in the industry. My previous setup was a 12" kicker L7 with a JL 500/1 and it BLEW IT! I bought another L7 and was able to win comps at 136.3dB! Now, I have a 1000/1 with 2 10" kicker cvx's in a hatchback and recently had it metered at 141.2dB! Excellent product!

Its a JL 1000/1 IT's the best. What I don't like about it. The price is a little high.

The JL 1000/1 offers almost anything the buyer would be looking for and more. The amplifier is rated at 1000 watts at 1.5 to 4 ohms which makes it great for many applications however if you set it up to do 1000 at 4 ohms and change the the subs with a differnt impedance than you can run into issues. I've seen this happen. A 4 ohm set jl 1000/1 hooked up to a 1 ohm load. You would think it would shut down but it won't. It will make 4000 watts into the 1 ohm load and smoke the subs. So in short I will sum it up to say JL definately under rates this amplifier and if you need more than 1000 watts to get the max for SPL this Amplifier will make more power than you would think possible. It does not shut down at 1ohm as you might think very quickly. I have never seen one shut down period but there is protection built in. Clean sound, Oh yes even when running 1 ohm at 3000 watts to smoke a set of 750 watt RMS ea subs there was no audible distortion. That means at 1 ohm it had to well exceed 1500 watts and it was undetectible. Used like JL recommends I think these amps are built to last you for as long as you own your vehicle. You may change your cars several times before you replace this amp. Be carefull who you buy from. This amplified is often the target of fraud by those trying to rip you off. Everyone wants a cheap JL 1000/1 but not every one gets what they pay for.
