Also the JP23 amps bass remote is superior to the CT Sounds remote. The difference is in the details. Check for yourself go back & critique the details of the CT SOUNDS remote... Ok now ask yourself what is it the CT SOUNDS remote is lacking that the JP23 remote DOES include?? I'll give you a hint its a nifty little feature that benefits many bassheads.

@WeAreWatching Yu they did but I wanted to watch big D. He’s unbiased as it gets. On the sundown video, it showed that the amp put out 2600ish watts at 1 ohm and only pulled 211 amps of current. Big d test showed that the amp isn’t as efficient as it seemed. Sundown test also shows that it puts out over 3k certified at .5 ohm. Big d test showed that it didn’t even count up clean .8 certified.

Be great to see each quarter, have running WINNER list on greatest value/budget option (single vs multi-channel), greatest quality, etc. Your through reviews awesome, but giving 60 second or less recaps, comparing results across amps, and making recommendations based on similar criteria like I listed above. For example, I’d love to see your recommendations on best entire sound system below $500, below $750, below $1000, below $1500, etc. Keep up outstanding work

This will be the third amp I've bought in just the past 2 & a half months that you've reviewed. (Though I had been looking at this JP23 before you reviewed it) JP really hit the nail on the head when he chose to utilize that bass knob. For me that's one of the key selling points, that & while its $299 it is almost too good to pass up. Crazy thing is I haven't even hooked up the Trauma Concussion 3k amp I bought yet. The Smart3 Taramps has been consistently doing a great job.

I seen a ds18 bass knob that looks almost identical to this D4S bass knob also, but no temp light. Might buy a ds18 knob to see if it works(shows clipping etc) with my SoundQubed amp, would be nice to have voltage displayed and clipping in one knob.

@@rotwiler7674 be sure & let us know if it works. I know the SKV Skar amp remotes w/clipping light will work on the Skar RP-2000.1D amp & the clipping light will work flawlessly. Seems not too many ppl try this. I want to see if a bass remote with clipping light will work on my Trauma Concussion 3k amp. I sure hope clip lights soon become an industry standard on all amps. Its too cheap of a feature to include with an amp & very beneficial if you listen to different types of music at very loud volumes all the time like I do.

@@itdoesntmatterwhatyourname6128 So looking at this remote knob, has temperature light etc, so may not be able to work with the SoundQubed(may work for clipping, but temp etc wouldn't work, so no reason to spend more)which I am pretty sure is same as a RP skar amp. But I did buy a DS18 knob, looks like this D4S but just has the clipping light and voltage reading in blue light. Waiting on it in mail, will let you know if it works. The SoundQubed 1250 amp I have looks like the rp1200 skar and both the SQubed and Skar amps have identical bass knobs, with clipping light. I just thought if I can get the voltage also, would be kind of nice. I know you need the amp to support the clipping light on the bass knob to work. I am only trying this because I want the voltage displayed on a compact knob.

Also, after having this SoundQubed amp I found it so easy to setup by having a clipping light. Took me minutes and been flawless past year. Some will say they are not accurate like traditional ways, but I found it pretty accurate. Pushing (2)500watt rms kappa 1200w subs in my truck, I am overpowering them at 600 watts @1ohm each and hits 800watts when max and bass hits hard and subs have survived the abuse for 12+ months.

@@rotwiler7674 i just installed my new Sony head unit in my car on Christmas Eve & found out a nice lil feature that it has... It has a digital voltage display feature on the screen of the headunit. (Sony doesn't even advertise this great feature which I think is odd) I've checked it, it's very accurate & responds well to drops w/hard bass. Just thought I'd mention it to you since it seems voltage is important to you. My Sony is the DSX-GS80 single din model. It sounds great on my mids/highs, nice power.

... Less effecient than the smart 3, costs more, and has jp's name on it I'll pass... When the smart 3 had a 72% + effeciency you said that was bad .. but d4s does 71% and it's not bad... Come on man you're better than that. Is it a bad amp. No. is it good? meh. I agree it looks like a skar rp series

@wal 3 жыл бұрын

70 plus percent at 1 ohm is expected with Class D. The Smart 3 is still tough to beat, I agree with that 👍

It's obvious these amp companies are hip to youtubers Dyno test amplifiers, so they will start to make them at least do the numbers they are rated. This is a good thing! I'm however going to start checking for amplifiers LONGEVITY after being played extensively for a while, Let's see how well they hold up then.

@iyung akbar definitely one of my faves. You do know the Deaf Bonce APOCALYPSE AAK Series amps use very similar if not the same bass knobs... The DB AAK APOCALYPSE amps are amazing but they are expensive Korean built amps. Definitely not cheap which is why I do not have one. They have no issue at half ohm in cars & I have seen some guys running them very hard at quarter (.25) ohm with success. Don't know how long they last wired that low. Though I'd never run that low, I typically only run my gear at 1 ohm.

I agree bout the stickers and before I carry on bout anything else I just want to say thanks for always being honest and unbiased. I wish it had a little more headroom but over all I think I will need a couple of them. Im so used to using the Rockford with constant power im always weary of switching amps out none the less think strapping them would do the trick. Great video big D n thanks as always for it! Happy new year to you as well. May it be a far better yr than this one!!

@wal 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment. I absolutely tortured this amp (you'll see in next vid) and it just kept kicking. Although I didn't mention in the video, I did purchase this amp, although D4S did mention sending me one a while back, it never happened, so I felt you guys would want to see a review from my perspective. It was difficult to find negatives about this amp, hopefully it's reliability is as good as my initial tests indicate. Happy New Year and thanks again!

I was just lookin at the Skar SKV2-2500.1D online last night and its nearly identical to this too. The specs on the SKV2 are near identical within a dozen watts, but what initially hit me was the paint job and the arrangement on the input side. The "Master/Slave" markings are exactly identical, as well as the locations of the adjustment knobs with the socket for the bass remote between the bass boost and LPF knobs. This JP23 IS a SKV2-2500.1 for $220 less than Skar!

I love what jp is doing and all BUT what separates this amp from every other 2k+ amp out there for less money?? I mean from cab to skar, from audiopipe to wolfram what's the selling point for us to pay the premium? I myself dont mind, as I said before I like what jps doing. My u15s came from him and didnt second guess the few extra bucks spent. But with every body offering a similar amp at a lower price(sure some of those are preorder prices) what makes the average buyer spend the extra money. I love the bass knob and the look, it's also definitely a solid build. But with the choice out there I just wonder ya know...
