DOWN4SOUND JP3 CPT BLACK | 555W RMS - 4 2 1 ANY-OHM AMPLIFIER

Bar none, best amplifier I have owned for the rated power and price. Had the jp3 running 2 skar svd 10s (1600 watt peak) at 1 ohm and ended up blowing the subs. Now I'm running 2 SVD 10" (3200 Watts peak) and they slam. Gonna add another jp3 soon and strap it at 2 ohm. Hopefully this review can get me the second amp a bit cheaper??.

I had this amp on a sundown e series 10 at 1ohm and was impressed, put it on 2 deaf bonce 2510 series at 1ohm and was just as impressed. This amp just doesn’t skip a beat. I bought this amp several months back and just didn’t have the chance to right a review. I also gave it to a friend to replace his planet audio 1500 watt amp. Let’s just say he is very happy with this amp as well. Only downside is the led screen for the bass knob is extremely bright, ended up having to use a marker over the glass to tone it down.

Love this amp. Makes my L7 12 pound.

This little amplifier is amazing. I'm pushing a 12 inch champion series pioneer subwoofer at 2 ohms, and it has more than enough power and then some! Sounds amazing and doesn't even get warm after hours of slamming. J.P. knows what he is doing. Thanks a million.

Absolutely awesome amp! This amp punches way above its class in amp dyno videos, it comes with a base knob that has a built-in voltmeter and it has a small overall footprint. Love that it has a built-in fan as well.

This amp has a lot of potential, but there's a few things I'm not a fan of. It also didn't come with a manual nor could I find one online. The hole in the bass knob is for trimming the voltage reading, FYI Pros: Works great on my trio of 6.5in skars at 2.66 ohms. Doesn't get very warm. Price is nice. Connections are big and beefy. Amp's nice and compact and was able to hide it and the subwoofer trio under the cargo mat in my 2013 volt. Cons: 10 conductor wire for the remote. Most people would see it and think it's just a standard 8 conductor cat5e cable (it even says so on the jacket of the cable) but if you run it and chop off the extra wire planning to just crimp on a standard ethernet end, you'll find that you need a means of crimping on a new 10 conductor connector instead. The blue LEDs have to go. They're a hazard at night without putting tape over them or desoldering and replacing them. No speaker level input with auto sense. I get that this isn't a common feature but the cheap walmart amp I got at a pawn shop had them. Construction quality and component choices are a little questionable in places. The backside of the board is covered in flux residue, and the thermistor on the corner of the board isn't thermally or physically bonded to the heatsink at all. Capacitors aren't the worst option but certainly could be better. The 40mm fan doesn't instill a ton of confidence in me since I've seen countless 40mm sleeve bearing fans fail on other devices. Overall I give it 4/5 stars, solid amp overall.

I don't usually write reviews but for this amp it's a must!, after a few weeks of owning one, it's needles to say i'm impressed. I have it pushing 2 12's kicker comp R's with no problem, my only honest concern it's that it gets hot after some time but then again it's summer time, let's how it does in the winter, regardless it's the best buget amp out there plus it comes with the coolest bass Knob!. thanks JP for another great product.

Great amp lots of power

I have 2 of these being supplied by a 170amp Mechman Alternator. On the highway while driving I can be on full volume and on full/high air conditioning and i won't drop below 13.5 volts. I am powering two 12 inch Image Dynamics IDQ subs in a 5.5 cu ft sealed box. 20hz to 40hz is AMAZING and kick drums around 80hz feel like punches in my kidneys. 2006 Corvette, they are facing the rear trunk corners.

Purchased a sundown sa10 classic and a jp3. Hits pretty hard for just a single 10. Amplifier temperature stays around 85-95 degrees. Amp definitely puts down some power for its size.
