Against JL audio?

Jokes on you, I don't work at all.

Don't be mad at me because you:

a) Didn't get the joke.

b) Don't have a working sense of humor.

c) Both a and b.

My bad..... they say we have to be kind to guys like you. Do you take the helmet off when you sleep?

I don't know much about JL amps, or really anything about JL... but I do know that I had a 15w3 in a sealed box being pushed by ~230w RMS and it pounded in the back of a jeep grand cherokee. Loudest single sub I've owned... and that was with very little wattage.

I call bullshit on this. Can you explain what exactly makes the amps more easy to be repaired than any other? I mean, it sure isnt the parts in it, most FET's are IRF knockoffs or IRF chips and 90% of all amplifiers use similar designed transistors or direct copies of them.
Here, this is a 1000/1 ... if you can point out anything that makes them so special, please do.

...

one thing I can see on the board that already would be time consuming to remove is the FET rails off the heat sync. I hate this style of mechanical anchoring of the FET's to the supporting metal, its a total pain in the *** to get the clips removed so you can get the board out.

I am not saying it's bullet-proof or fault-tolerant, JL's just very rare suffer catastrophic damage, where amp repair becomes non-practical. Nicely designed multi-level protection circuits, usage of low-current diodes for driver boards protection, efficient bias compensation circuit contributing to very good thermal stability. Hell, even a circuit board material and traces layout are made with taking into consideration voltages and currents (unlike many, many modern Orion amps for example). Additionally, a driver IC's used in class D JL amps are much more reliable then HIP4080AIP's and clones used in majority of other amps.

And, to the fact, it's the most straightforward amp to disassemble/reassemble //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I wouldn't pay to have someone banned. Esp not him, he'll get there on his own.

actually i've litterally never heard someone say they refused to run a jl amp because they are "inefficient", 1000 watts is 1000 watts, inefficient doesn't mean much more than "it heats up".... and the slash V2s have improved in that area alot...
i mean the new slash amps are more efficient than alot of class d amps and have a better dampening factor than alot of class a/b amps... i don't know what you're talking about?//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif

20% more efficient i heard with the v2

This is true. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif
