This board is JBL biased...

[XSNOIZ 10+ year member]

I'm really starting to wonder about this board...everyone on here is boasting "J B L" like no tomorrow, and I can't figure out why. They are ok, I'll agree with that, but they overheat themselves...and that just won't work when you're serious about this stuff. So you guys tell me...what's the freakin' deal with JBL around here...????

JBL otherwise known as "Just been laugh'n" Has yet to impress me with anything they make. But that's just my opinion. I also am a big Audiobauhn fan though. So what do I know. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Why would some people say that others are JBL biased when they are MA Audio biased???

JBL's underrate their amplifiers power, they function well, and do not often overheat. As stated earlier, doller for dollar, they are (IMO) the best amplifier on the market. If you think that this forum is rude, beleive me, there are far worse out there. This is one of the better forums I've been too, albeit a little sparse in the area of experts (with exceptions, of course).

I don't really care...if someone wants to be an @$$hole, they can do it somewhere else. I joined this forum for constructive chat, not to waste my time.

So let me clarify:

I'm not bagging on JBL, I'm just really curious why 90% of the amps people are talking about getting is JBL. (Maybe it's location?) I mean, in so. cali. I notice that Audiobahn and Rockford and MTX are on the top of a very long list of products used...yeah, they're pricey, but you get what you pay for, and there's no denying that. So in reply, I'm curious.

Where do you live and what seem to be some of the best mid-range (price) amps...how about top of the line? Obviously people are gonna disagree...so let's keep this civilized. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/satan.gif.9c6a335ed7aeeed3ee273e573f1fcaac.gif

The reason 90% of people recomend a 1200.1 is because 90% of people ask what is the best amp for the money, and that is no doubt the 1200.1. In my area there are a large variety af amps, but I just got in my Autotek 1500.1 and will be hooking it up to my Juggernaut soon...I noticed you put Audiobahn as a high priced company...check out ebay, you can get them for WAY cheaper than in stores...believe me, I had 2 Alum10x subs each hooked up to a 1200.1 and I was hitting just over 140.

If you hate JBL so much, I would like to see you find another amp that puts out an honest 1200+ watts RMS for less than 300 dollars.

T-R-U 2 DAT:evil:

wait...wait a second...I just ran across a pyramid 2400watt mono block for like 230, I guess ill recomend that from now on when people need powerful amps on mid budget systems.
