Anyone who knows car audio, knows JL Audio. This brand has been around since the 70's and was the company put together by two high school buddies Lucio Prioni and Jim Birch. They became popular in the late 80's and early 90's "blew up" into on of the most well-known subwoofer manufacturers. Their subwoofers are legendary, from the original 8W2 to the massive 18W6 and the insanely impressive W7 series.
JL offered some "re-badged" amplifiers (by PPI) in the early 90's, but decided to engineer and manufacture their own amps starting around 2000. One of the first models was the "Slash series" 500/1, which was to become the best selling car audio amplifier in the US market over it's production between 2000-2014. Let's take a look at this amp and see what it's all about...

I'm 46 and sold these at United Audio Centers in Aurora IL. This amp was a game changer when it came out. Amazing power in such a small design. I sold these for a living back in the day when it came out. My JL Audio rep was a cool old guy which I thought was weird for a young mans game back then. The nicest set up was an Alpine head unit with the subwoofer volume control and 3X10 JL Audio W3 box or 2 x 12W3 box. It would bang for days looked cool next to the 4 channel JL Audio AMP when mounted together. It smoked anything in its class back then. I think it is awesome it still goes for around the same money on Ebay if it is mint condition. We were one of the largest sellers of Rockford Fosgate and JL Audio made a huge impact back in the late 90's.

(Sat in the box for around 6 years in between) I’m also running a slash 500/1 v2 on my sub. They scream quality and are built like tanks and they produce some of the cleanest rated or above power. I’ll likely never look at a different amp line besides the slash series provided JL keeps producing them.

I'll never sell them, they work too well and give me all the power I need. I used the setup for years in an 18-wheeler, using two 13' zero gauge Monster Cable power lines hardwired directly to the 4 x 12v battery system of the truck.Was fascinating to watch your review. Thanx a bunch!

As I noted to a comment below, I am currently running two slash amps. I’m using a 300/4 v1 from a previous install from a ways back (It sat in the original box in my spare closet for about 6 years in between installs) and it still runs like a champ. I’m using it to run my front comps (ID CXS64s & ID 69s on rear deck for some rear fill) and I’m running a slash 500/1 v2 on one sealed IDQ12 D2 v4 in my trunk. These amps are built like tanks and put out some of the cleanest at or above rated power and are light on your electrical. I cannot say anything negative about these amps and I’ll likely never look at a different line of amps provided JL continues producing them. Also, I want to give a big thumbs up to Big D for taking the time to provide us his quality content. I’m always excited when there’s a new video uploaded! The information you provide us is both very informative and entertaining. Even though my current setup will likely stay as is for some time it’s always great to see you testing a huge array of amps to help us make wise decisions based upon the information you provide all of us given that each of us have different goals in this never ending quest to obtain the sound we are looking for!

For just raw power at 2 ohm the JX probably performs just as well. Problem is there's a lot more to a 1000/1 slash series amp than just raw output.

Sorry for the late comment, and I hope that you respond. Thanks in advance for your time! I just pulled one of these out of my uncle’s 72’ c-10 and will probably out it in my truck on a separate build. Questions are what new JL 12 would you recommend hooking up to it and how will the connections be made with the sub outputs? I see that it has room for 2 subs, but you only used 1 connection in your test?

I had 3 15 w6 comp subs from JL audio. Had them powered perfectly off an old school sound stream 2000 watt amp. I know they would have handled more power. I dont know if you tested the sound stream amps yet but it could be another test video Derek.

great vid. did you happen to make one for the xd600 and rd500 by JL? i have two 8w7 and been using just the xd600 for both subs. it slaps but im sure they can slap harder and sound better. thinking of buying a micro amp because space is an issue. whats crazy is i bought the xd600 for 150 new years ago and now today they sell over 300 used. not sure what to get. im a sq guy and have both subs enclosed. also thinking about get some skar 6.5 component speakers for some mids. what should i do?

That's a good price if it works and is cosmetically good condition
