[@mugendrewable]

What does it say on the board???

[@THELIFEOFPRICE]

Super excited about this one as it hit my goal perfectly. the jp8 was 1400 @ 1 ohm, the jp23 v1.5 was 2600 @1 ohm so I wanted this one to be right in the middle and with it hitting 2000w @1 ohm made it PERRRFECT! so this fills the gap between the jp8 thats $199 and the jp23 thats $299. Since this one is $249. Its perfectly in the middle with power AND price, win winnnnnn =D Thank you for another great review!

[@supadupa6891]

Great job my man. But by any chance are you guys going to have a "select a color" option for all your amps? I'd love to see a jp23v2 in black as well. The jp33 would look badass in black too!

[@racecitypatriot66]

Fixing to order one of these. Should push my l7s good

[@chacaron03]

Your amped up attitude and business practices sold me on this. Underpromise and over-deliver an amazing product. Can't wait for mine on Tuesday... Just wish these babies came in blue!

[@Inimical_imi]

Just picked up a jp8 to push two dd audio 10s can’t wait to get it installed.

[@steveseldomridge3760]

I just bought one for the same reason. I had the JP8 and it was a great amp. I'm running different subs now, needed more power than the JP8 would do, but didn't quite need the power of the JP23. This is EXACTLY what I need!

[@Swagory]

I never thought to ask why. I always just click in with a genuine interest in the results and your commentary.

[@markwentz8332]

really like the full spread of testing at basic (factory) voltage levels 👍

[@detonationpyrotechnics4156]

I’ve been waiting for this video for a while now and it didn’t disappoint

[@bigk3355]

This is the one I’ve been waiting for I hope it sound good

[@aidancalhoun8722]

Been looking at this for a hot minute and waiting for you to review this! Definitely buying one for my Forester daily

[@boominc0420]

Love all the jp amps and your videos bro !!!!

[@darrenb7230]

I always like your video's on all the amp's out there. I'm a old school amp person myself and i used to like the alpine V12 amp's. They were very good amp's and run strong back in the day. I also wondering if you could do a short video on a very old home intergrated stereo amplifier. Its the realistic SA-!50. I still use it to this day for my computer speakers and still works well.

[@johnobserve517]

Came here after seeing it was released :) seen jps video first ! Hell yeah i need this amp !

[@JayP7.62]

That amp is a beast!! And its on sale right now for $250!! That is crazy value!

[@RCCRAWLINGADVENTURES503]

Awesome, thanks for the video will definitely order on your link. D4s fir the win again.

[@2005bjpatton]

Ordered thanks for the review

[@YellowJettaGLI]

Love these Dyno test, I wish they would put a dyno sheet in with each amp.

[@adamnorwood8084]

Thank you for these videos

[@joeyholthusen6495]

Love my d4s jp23!

[@twotrackjack2260]

For the power output at 2 ohms, maintaining 88% efficiency is pretty impressive 🤘

[@jameskyser9423]

D4S is killing it! I'm still drooling on the jp3

[@blitztank1]

Love it as always! When are you going to do the JP32.2? Thx?

[@jstrahn]

Awesome that it's the same form factor as the JP8. Might have to switch to one at some point if I add more subs.

[@DarrenT0dd]

Great vid, looks like another great JP amp. I'm hearing a lot of complaints about that noisy fan, hopefully that gets updated sooner rather than later.

[@bondalero0074]

Luckily, I guess my JP8 is in my trunk slamming my (1) Skar 10” DDX DVC2 in a factory rhino lined enclosure luckily I can’t hear my fan but running at 1 ohm it’s NEVER hot or warm so I know it’s working good!#Down4Sound#JP8👑🔊❤️SkarDDX@DarrenTOdd

[@wayneholderbee1734]

These remind me so much of the U.S. Amps. When my amps die? I'm definitely switching to D4S

[@scottborst5430]

😮 I should’ve waited. This is the one I need to push that L7S 12

[@KobyTCBZ]

Sheeeeesh🔥

[@jonadkins9339]

I'm convinced JP is naming these amps after what they do at 2 ohms.

[@arnicus208]

JP amps and Down 4 Sound in general are great! Customer service is super fast, if something should go sideways; and shipping is really quick too. I ran a JP23 for about a year with various subs and loved it, but when I switched to four b2 10s in my Ram 1500, I wanted more. So did the 320 alternator, monster AGM under the hood and lto in the back running a JP33…Oh my god! And that’s before I’ve run any rebassed tracks thru it. Bullet proof

[@bsams3827]

Looks like the JP8 acrylic bottom and fan would work on the JP13 perfectly. Wonder why they used the smaller fan onthe larger amp?

[@sterr1]

I wish I had the money. It would be ordered now.

[@johnpolaski6126]

I love it

[@adampaffrath4299]

Beast ❤🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@chaos4197]

Dang son, that's a heckuva amplifier.

[@TheGodofSEO]

The fact that I called it on JP’s channel is absolutely hilarious

[@Contact_Info]

I knew JP would send this to you

[@wow1022]

it's just the opposite of amp companies that overrate their amps for marketing, underrate the amp for marketing for the communities to start bragging about how your amps produce "higher than rated power"

[@smalltimer4370]

Wonderfully made amplifier - brings me back to the days of Orion

[@PartsMan937]

Yeah the chassis reminds me of Orion too.

[@marckendrick3163]

Would still love to see more AB amps from d4s.

[@josephsaucedo8691]

I like the 8 ohms test my self. 💪✌️💯🎶🎵🛠️🍻

[@Pittsburgh-412]

Always getting big power with these jp amps. They are incredible

[@paulgood2218]

Nice video

[@jdmintegradp]

What a beast of an amplifier, that's all I got to say...

[@TechTimeWithEric]

Have you thought about doing any of the Rockville stuff? Suddenly I'm getting tons of ads for them on Facebook.

[@randomtube8226]

D4S JP amps for the win! The only question left is longevity. We seen the test it passed them with flying colors and some. But how brutal can you be on these amps before they fail? They can get pretty hot. So heat disipation is really the only thing I can think of. It's hard to control my excitement when an amp does so well. After being lied to by so many manufacturers 😂

[@donaldwilcoxjr.5212]

I bought a jp23v1.5 about 2 months ago ....I run a single American bass xr 12 dual 2 with it ....have run it for over an hour at very high volume and it has never got above 120 degrees ....and it was 82 degrees outside that day windows down no air conditioning on ....I have never had it get hot yet ...I do only have the gain at half way ....because thats where my sub seems to be happy with volume all the way up ....

[@ceciljones1248]

​@Donald Wilcox, Jr. Come down to Texas when it's a hundred degrees and plus in the summer they get really hot have two jp23 amplifiers wasn't strong enough for my sundown xv3 12s and ran hot but didn't cut off I'm running a Taramps bass 8k and it doesn't get as hot as them

[@masterbeta343]

I gotta see what the new MM1000 does

[@4xsanti325]

Would a 240 amp alternator with big 3 and 0 gauge ofc handle this thing well?

[@TrippyManee]

when was this released?? i bought the jp23 but this is more or less what i needed 😬😬

[@gregblau8082]

When I was in the market I wanted a jp, but was looking for something between the 8 & 23. I'm happy with the sia, but would have grabbed this in a second

[@murrayshekelberg9754]

My JP8 has been a little beast. Been about a year and a half now and I abuse the poor thing but it never complains and is always ready to pound. I'm not going to say they are the greatest out there but I feel like most of the JP amps are some of the best buys out there between price, power, reliability, and features.

[@AdenNotLoud]

Gonna get this Amp for a rogue audio vandal 10 in a 2 cubic ft box tuned to 29hz

[@jeremystover256]

Lets see a dyno on that jp72 amp!

[@adamsdiyandrandomvids5379]

I am so upset that the 83 I spent 1500 on does not have the bass knob as a amp design

[@turtletime705]

I just ordered the jp3 on Saturday from watching your video

[@david029014]

I picked up a jp8 for my single 12" sundown E12 in a down4sound box, should i have gotten a jp 13 instead or would it be too much? I'm I thinking i have an upgrade road subwoofer wise by doing this.

[@scamchan]

So why is the fan in that spot on the amp? what is getting hot in that location?

[@benmcintish836]

Any info on the purple jp23 1.5 dyno test

[@nunyabisness4300]

Down for Sound really doesn’t make a weak amp

[@budgetaudiowithJ]

Oh snap, I need to get one asap, hey big D send me that one 🤣

[@timmontanez3781]

Big D will the bottom cover from jp8 fit??

[@EnejKokelj]

Can U please do a GROUD ZERO amp test

[@KoryLaBauve]

I've been looking for a replacement amp. Are these really a good amp? I've got a Fosgate that's cutting out on me and I'm really interested in this one. Not only for the power, but also for the price.

[@MyBlowncobra]

Good video Derek..never had any luck with this brand..my taramps smart3 bass never let me down.

[@randomtube8226]

How can someone not have any luck with these amps?

[@Luminous.Dynamics]

Smart 3 is literally a much cheaper made amp

[@timstarnes8587]

Taramps has a 6% failure rate by their own admission. JP amps are at 1%. Full bridge amps are much less stable and reliable just by their design.

[@MyBlowncobra]

@@timstarnes8587 you do you

[@timothy5977]

Man, I got a JP8 and a JP84, and I need a little more power thinking bout a JP13 🤔 they need a 4 channel to match it!

[@joesshows6793]

This shizzz is craaaaazy

[@troymerkl2393]

Amps ok customer service is shit comon Big D. They must stroke yoi good to ignore this issue look at the Google reviews it's not just me. Though you is the way I'm trying to get to them tgey just ignore and give excuses that are BS.

[@8balltheletter]

Will it catch fire over a 30 minute drive.

[@alkosmo2692]

Just got me a JP95 delivered today 😂

[@kylekaden7696]

Big D Whiz I know ofc is king these days but in your honest opinion would sky high 1/0 oversized CCA be sufficient enough for this amp.?

[@nathanjames4242]

Are we expecting a new 4ch from D4S by chance? Would be really nice to see a smaller 4ch amp that matched up with the JP3.

[@THELIFEOFPRICE]

like a 50x4 or something?

[@rmblwgn]

​@@THELIFEOFPRICE yes please, which in reality does about 120 x4 @ 2 ohms. Also a small "250w" 2 channel would be awesome.

[@RAW_Reality]

@@THELIFEOFPRICE Not for nothing, but 50x4 seems dated. Even something in the realm of 65x4 would help it standout from seemingly an endless supply of alternatives.

[@nathanjames4242]

@@THELIFEOFPRICE Yeah, or maybe just slightly more. 60-70 x4. I see the JP84 on the site but its 120x4. Its honestly a great price for that amp but something about half that RMS would match really nicely with the new JP3 I would think.

[@nathanjames4242]

I think you could sell buckets of 75x4 amps honestly. The only thing is that typically people are running 4ohm full range speakers so the 90RMS of the JP84 is actually pretty nice. Im not sure if its possible to do a class AB amp in the same style (constant output or whatever its called) but that would be pretty attractive to me. (honestly im actually in the market for straight class A amps for SQ but its more of a dream than a reality for me)

[@fullpeladas]

Hi sir this amp tune to 5 or 10 db while testing

[@timhammond2183]

What about old school hifonics

[@floydwilliams3321]

👀❤️

[@murrayshekelberg9754]

Would love to see what this does strapped.

[@toddmccardle5125]

Me too Cause I'm on the fence right now. I just ordered a JP13 and after I ordered it. The JP23V 1.5 popped up for $40 more and in different colors. Which I was kind of disappointed about because I searched all over the damn website and the only jp23v1.5 that came up was a black one that came with the older style plastic base knob. So i ordered the JP13 and at the bottom of my order slip pops up the 23V 1.5 and different colors with the metal base knob. I was so disappointed which I really didn't need the power of the 23. But it's always nice to have the extra power on tap

[@SoXDYTB]

Basically the same output as my avatar atu 2000.1 , or any other 2000.1 classic korean board

[@InabnettMusic]

looking at jp3 for my fronts can you test that next?

[@THELIFEOFPRICE]

he already did that one on his other channel =D

[@elijahdossett3528]

For the wattage, $250 is awesome.

[@philipeli1192]

These must be full bridge amps?

[@matthewlogsdon502]

How well would this do with us guys with weak electrical. On 12v

[@mattburgess2]

Should be great, just tune the amp to the current draw. I will say though every amp install over 1000 watts should do a big 3 first. It's also always better to run a bigger more powerful amp than you need and turn the gain down than running a smaller amp maxed out to its limit like alot do. You should never see the clipping light come on and if you do turn it down a tad on the gain or invest in a bigger amp.

[@matthewlogsdon502]

@@mattburgess2 I believe my cars stock wire for big 3 is 4 gauge already since my battery is located in the trunk it's a 2019 Chevy Cruze

[@BLITZSPEIGS]

Starting to wish I would have bought one of these instead of the Rockford Fosgate Prime 750 Watt. Love the channel, thanks for doing these tests.

[@orion2250]

Next up…the JP 238. The worlds first carbon pile U238 mobile amp.The worlds first 5 Terawatt Nuclear powered amplifier. Outputs power at ohms solo… it hertz. Followed shortly by the Kicker thermobaric…8ft of subwoofer so terrifyingly loud that it is considered a weapon of mass destruction.Korean built of course…..

[@derekvasile6127]

What a great amp but why would they put a smaller fan on a more powerful amp? That makes no sense. Anyways, great video Big D👍🏼👍🏼

[@phila8160]

I'm guessing didn't have the room for the larger fan so just used what would fit.

[@Petar120]

How did this amp do on that woofer?

That amp could be the JP 23 if it was any other manufacturer it would be LOL

[@scottjames3698]

Big D, you really should take a long hard look at how JP, and D4S in general, treat their customers. It's well documented all over the web. These kids watch your videos, see your numbers, and then spend their money. So many of them are getting screwed by D4S and it's never mentioned on your channel. Don't take my word for it, look it up. Check his return policies, read the reviews from people that receive defective amps. The fact that JP replies to every negative comment about D4S with "laughing" emojis should tell you all you need to know about him. The amount of free advertising you're doing for him is disappointing.

[@deanb949]
