    Installed and sold so many of these... many of these amps are still going strong to this day. Good repair

    Such a clean layout of a board this amp has great power being full ridge same power at 1.5 to 4 ohm I think that's the best class d style.

    I love the sound of alpine subs and amps the little sub u showed flexing was nice 1 of my favorite class ab circuits is alpine 3545 model rated for around 250 RMS and does closer to 750 I also love the kicker zr 1,000 and all the older zr models

    Some people don't like these amps. I personally love the look of them, and they feel very clean to me. Their power ratings are always good to look at too

    i need one of those three way switches for my JL1000/1v2. The Mode slope (off/12db/24db) switch is corroded and barely makes connection so that amp only works if you mess with the button perfectly.

    My 12" is currently slamming the full phat 125vrms (could take more actually) and it got me thinking, what would be the breakdown voltage of that enamel on the voice coil windings? I'd be devastated if I killed it, not by heat, but just voltage breakdown alone.

    What caused my 500/1v2 to melt the 12v connector?(shop installed) Even with melted connector the amp still worked so the shop refused to replace amp. I had trouble trusting it since so it sits in its box. Where can I get a replacement 12v connector and do you think it will be safe to use again?

    If a connection comes loose it could cause sparking which can cause a fire or melt connectors, but without seeing a image of it, can't say for sure. You would think a fuse would blow if that was the case, that is if a fuse was installed.
