Posted December 4, 200816 yr Hey guy don't know if you've heard anything about the JBL GTO 1400.1 amp. I was thinking of changing my older PG Tantrum for it. I'm currently driving a JL 13w7 with the PG but I think it's not putting out the wattage it says it does, I mean the fuse rating is only 80 amps compared to the JBL 160 amps.What do you think?
December 4, 200816 yr The PG amps do put out rated. Fusing means next to nothing if the amp is 90% efficient.
December 4, 200816 yr Author The PG amps do put out rated. Fusing means next to nothing if the amp is 90% efficient.According to the birthsheet of the amp It's about 67% efficient and the wattage goes to about 1500 but at 14.24 volts.Do you know anything about the new JBL amps? I previously owned a BP 1200.1 and it rocked!
December 4, 200816 yr for a mid level class D I would take the JBL the biggest reason is the JBL's do have a very high effective damping factor and have better than average woofer control.....this is really noticable in low tuned enclosureswith the note rippsnothing against the PG.....good amp..just not as good IMO
December 5, 200816 yr Author I have a PG 1200.1 and I love it. so how much do you want for yours?......lolYou know, I was actually thinking of using it for driving two JL 18 W3 with my home theater....
December 5, 200816 yr Author Do any of you guys know if I would get a greater spl using the JBL 14001?I was also thinking of the JL 1000/1. A bit pricy though....
