Skar is cool looking and a great budget build. The big problem with Skar it’s virtually every amp and subwoofer at some point somewhere has some reliability issues. There are more budget builds nowadays and then the 90s when I was growing up but you still get what you pay for. Down for sound make some solid products very good good price point. Personally I run Harman audio Infiniti components and subwoofers. I like to use alpine amps but on my subs I am running a Kicker 1200.1. If I had to rebuild a system from scratch I honestly think the best middle line quality you can get a CT sounds for your price point. No one complains about their products and you can get a very good set up for a small amount of money. Plus they just came up with a three speaker component system which is what I prefer to run. But I am more into SQ build an SPL builds

This can't be compared with Skar Audio's RP2000. The JP23 v2 is $379 and the RP2000 is $212. Yeah the JP23 puts out a lot more power but it's going to cost a lot more to get it. So that isn't going to end anything for Skar. The only way that will happen is with an amp that puts out a lot more power and costs the same as the Skar amps. That's just my opinion as someone on a very tight budget. I would still choose the RP2000 all day if I needed a 2k watt amp.

Skar will continue to sell just like they always have bc they are budget friendly and until someone can compete with them in the same price range nothing will change. Ppl get decent performance at a low price with Skar and that is good enough for most ppl. Plain and simple.

Skar RP 2k in stock for $212, as of this comment. Refurbished for $159. Another great video sir and JP amps are sold performers. Definitely one of the best amps on the market today. I currently have two of the Skar RP 2k, RP 800, RP 9005, a lot of their amps lol. But these JP's amps are grabbing my attention. They seem very well built. I may buy one soon. Thanks for these in depth and detail videos, they are much needed and appreciated.

Love my jp23. Wish he'd make subs. The market needs more lower fs and decently efficient subs for smaller boxes
@michaelburch5594 Жыл бұрын
It's almost $100 more then the RP. Not really competing with it price wise, weird comparison.

Got the new JP23 and it's totally awesome but that knob display will still give you a suntan but I love having the clip indicator. Didn't come with those cool lil standoffs anymore

Can you do a test on a amp with out dual inputs and with dual inputs to see if the extra wire makes that big a difference. I think it would be educational to see the difference

This amp draws 361 amps at 1ohm. So i would need an H.O. alternator bigger than that?? Lmk

The JP amps are the standard amps should shoot for. They look good, perform great and have a kick butt bass knob.

Thats great they were able to make the amp smaller, with more output! Also, it's nice they lowered the brightness on the level control. I took mine apart, after finding an old piece of kodak film negative, and put that in front of it to lower the brightness, and then put back together

Where would you put the leads for a 1 ohm sub? It’s dual 2 down to 1. Just confused on the inputs. Look at the pic closely.

Skar RP2000.1 is $212 on Skar's website. The JP23V2 is $379. That's a big price difference. I don't see many people cross shopping those. Lost me with the ricer comment. Out of touch.

Yeah, you could get two Skar amps, a 2k and a 2 channel for the price, but you’re not getting the same power.

You mention that they're looking to unseat Skar, but how are the "old-school" brands like JL, Kicker, and Alpine doing in terms of market share in a world of Skar, D4S, and Taramps? Does anyone track this data, like the Consumer Electronics Association? Curious how much D4S vs Skar matters in a crowded car audio world. Also, nobody's going to talk about that sweet sport coat Big D has on in his call with D4S? Very professional.👔

Good evening sir I got my hands on a Skar audio SVR-10 dual 4 OHM 800 watt RMS speaker, I was thinking of using a Skar Audio AR1X10V Single 10" Armor Coated Ported Subwoofer Box. What kind of amplifier would you recommend for this application? I’m also adding an Alpine 4 channel 800 watt amplifier and changing all four 6-1/2” door and deck speakers as well. Thank you in advance for the advice
