    Abuse is not use. Running my JP23 in phoenix and somedays the bass knob says 136 degrees... when using it it cools in about 20 mins to under 90 degrees. Don't run low ohm loads and push everything to the max and heat wont be an issue. These are good amps... Will def get my business again, I promote using them to all my customers 👍

    I've been into car audio since the old school Liner Power, Zapco, & Sherwood days. All of my cars have had upgraded stereos installed by myself. So I decided to pick up and Installed one of these JP2300v2 with the back plexiglass facing into the car running at 2ohms pushing two 12's kicker Q-Class. This amp gets down, hits the deep low notes beautifully, runs cool and never has overhead. I previously was using a Brazilian smart 3k bass and never even came close to the power and clean output that this JP2300v2 puts out. Solid amp great product, and it shipped out immediately 👍🏼

    I've been nothing short of impressed with any product I've received with the D4S brand on it. As someone else said, anything in mass production can fail, but the important thing is how does the company stand behind their products? They can't guarantee your item wont break, but what they can do is make sure the customer receives fair treatment. And from what I've seen, JP and the crew at D4S is there for their customers.

    I just got my amp last week. Coming from only Fosgate amps I was kinda skeptical but wanted to give yall a chance. Let me say I am very impressed and for the price I say it is the best amp. I noticed it did get a little hot and I had the same idea as you said. I noticed the fans on on the bottom and decided to raise the amp and let me tell you that’s all it needed. This video was much needed because I don’t think many people raise their amp for air flow

    I been rocking my JP43, JP234 & JP84 for well over a year now and running them on upgraded electrical as we all should. I’m in the Inland Empire which gets pretty hot and I have never not once had any failures in my system. I stand by D4S equipment! I’m totally convinced that 99% of the so called failures are User error, either an overlooked defect in the install or over driven.

    I am in the middle of a big build and I am considering using some JPs as I have faith in his products. But I think it’s laziness or lack of knowledge with most people not wanting to put in the small amount of extra effort to raise their amps. All amps are supposed to be on some form of standoffs due to every amp on the market having fans on the bottom. JP is right there’s multiple reasons why any amp will fell or heat up but as far as overheating, amps must sit on standoffs to breathe and stay cool and for best performance have external fans blowing through the amp under and top where the heatsink is

    my amp fail was different, none of it was user error electrical was up to par to hold that amp. 14.7 volts, music at low volume kept hearing noises in subs then it destroyed almost every cap bout caught on fire. went straight to your warranty took 2 months and horrible customer service. even came to you personally for help and even you didnt really help me

    • @ryzenpeak
      @ryzenpeak Місяць тому

      Remember they have specific requirements for their warranties to be upheld and if any single one of them wasnt held up on your end they wont honor your warranty. If it truly was a defect and the amp was the issue that sucks and id be mad too. But they ask for very specific setup for the amps especially larger ones, and most amps dont just light on fire without something happening. Ive had every big name amp peoole say theyve had fires and issues with and ive never had issues 🤷‍♂️ ive had skar, taramps, audiopipe, and d4s all on completely wrong electrical, not enough power and still no issues

  • @Lemonhead8890
    @Lemonhead8890 5 місяців тому

    The fact that most users on forums I've seen have pushed these well below their ohm rating sets a huge point for the durability of these amps. Don't do this if you don't know what you are doing and don't want a possible failure. I am looking to put a JP95 in my Ford Maverick because the power to price ratio is amazing. Love the color options and the old US amp designs. I will be purchasing soon, and think your products look great, may even give the 3 way comps a try!

I work for Custom Sounds and Tint we sell Rockford JL Kicker. Three of the biggest names in car audio. Hands down the JP amp are on par with all of these brands amps in SQ and Power. I recommend JP amps anytime anywhere.

The Bluetooth module in the amp for the bass knob failed. I'm waiting for it to get back in the next day or two to push the 12 zv6 again. D4S customer service was more than helpful and right on getting the problem fixed. Thanks D4S

    Bought a JP95 and absolutely love it! I really think most people don't wire up systems properly or understand WHY it's important. Good wire and caps/batteries are pricey and add to the build more then the average installer is mabye prepared for or has little knowledge of. These are amazing amps for people that want high quality equipment at a price point they can afford!

    • @RandoManFPV
      @RandoManFPV 5 місяців тому

      Yea everytime I change something around I have to pull up a diagram to make sure I get the series/parallel wiring correct. It's so basic and I mostly remember how to do whatever I want to do but I have to double check and sometimes I make mistakes.
      Everyone else I know that has owned a system didn't know shit but would happily pull it apart, and move some wires around, and jus goof with their stuff trying to get more bass lmao
      That's pretty much the most simple thing to get right yet people so often don't even pull up a Google image to learn about how to hook their stuff up before they go to plugging shit in and turning knobs lol

Most I’ve seen that have blown don’t have enough electrical to support or running bad loc’s that send bad signal as long as you got fans when running em half ohm & at 15.5 & have the electrical it’ll be fine 👊🏽

    Been vibin' with my JP95 in my Focus ST. It does the job well, paired with a ct-sounds meso 10" at 1ohm. I do have a question though, how do these amplifiers operate under a smart charging alternator system? (i.e. when voltage fluctuates between 12.5v - 14.2v while driving like most newer cars these days) I disabled my battery management system for now so I'm charging at a constant 14v but I'm genuinely curious as to how the amplifier would handle the voltage fluctuations? Thanks

I beat the shit out of my 1 jp23 on my u12s and at one point the wires arced and I saw flames shut it down fixed it and the amp came right back on and never skipped a beat!!!

    I’ve got a JP8 and had it on a 12” Savard HiQ 12” dual 2 ohm sub. I live in south Texas and quit often in the summer would see the temp on the remote show 120 degrees when I would first turn it on. Even after playing at high volumes near clipping for 30 minutes, the highest temp I EVER saw was 126 degrees.
    The amp was mounted under my seat on 1/2” risers to allow air flow under the amp for the fan.
    LOVE the JP amps and eventually will be buying more!!! Thanks JP!!!!!

  • @PhobosPlace

    i have had my JP23 V2 for a little over a month and i love this amp. it does get hot, i have my Jp23 in direct wind on a mp rack above the sub box. i also have 3 half inch rubber grommets in each corner to raise the amp off the rack to help the fan on the bottom breath. as far as temp outside when the amp gets hot it was around 100f. my amp has never shut off due to it being hot tho. i have 2 15in skars 4ohm dvc wired to the amp at 1ohm. i have done the big 3 upgrade, and even before i did the big 3 i didn't have an issue with the lights dimming when the bass was hitting hard, and believe me the JP23 V2 will get your subs hitting hard asf did i mention i love my amp? lmmfao was thinking about getting another JP23 v2 and 2 more 15in skars. i also have a 1995 rockford fosgate punch 200ix pushing my 4 skar 6.5s in my doors.

    As a former professional installer understand everything that you said in your video as far as consumers not being on the up-and-up and knowledgeable about power supplies as well as installation. Yes there is a fan on the bottom of your amplifiers but perhaps you should make the feet Mount taller so that that fan to circulate properly. A minor adjustment that may read your 1% problem. Just a few thoughts from an IASCCA finanlist and former professional installer.

    The amps are solid, I'm still running an original jp 63, but the bass knobs? I know corners have to be cut a bit to bring the best at an affordable price but me personally, don't need the bass knobs, nothing beats feeling the temp when the amps are in reach and using a voltage meter

  • @a_s10_blazer
    @a_s10_blazer 9 місяців тому

    One question I've always had is if some of the bass knobs temperature readings are off. I got 3 jp8s 1 jp23 1jp95 and the 2 in one vehicle one will read 90 degrees and the other will read 130 degrees. I checked them with a temperature gun externally and both read 85 so I'm assuming the bass knob is off because they shouldn't be a 30 or more degree difference between the 2. And the jp23 is off in another car that also sits in the same garage as the one with 2 jp8s and a jp8⁴.
    Just a question but out of the 10 amps I have in total all the knobs read different degrees from the proper temperature that they are.

    So I got a question my man. I live in California and it can get pretty hot here in the summer too and I’ve had other branded amps cut out music temporarily and stop playing bass during those hot summer days. Most of that is my own fault, I’ll admit, as the the user im the main contributor to the equipments failure during those extreme hot summer days when I know better than to max them out but I still do lol.
    But I’ve never had a class d 4 channel amp. This is going to be my first. Is it going to work at moderate to high volumes If mounted in the factory amp location behind the Carpets of my bmw for majority of the year ? I can understand the summer months can be brutal on aftermarket electronics but if I’m replacing the Oem amp I want to be sure the replacement will out perform the original and remain out of sight and still work during moderate to high volumes within reason?

    First off i love my jp23v1.5.....best amp i have owned since the mid 90s when i owned a punch 150 .....i run an american bass xr 12 dual 2 2400 peak ....and have to keep the gain on the jp turned down just under half way ....because the sub cant handle any more power ....and i run it full tilt a lot ....and i have never seen over 120 degrees .....i do usually have the window down ....in my 98 s10 extended cab ....and i do have the amp mounted with half in spacers so air can flow under the amp.....and i do have upgraded alternator....big 3 ...frame grounds and 0 guage .....and it may go out next time i turn it on but almost a year in now and its been flawless ....even in the hottest of a tennessee summer .....i would guess most people having trouble have the amp mounted where it cant get good air flow around it ....run it at too low a ohm load ....or bad electrical ....i wouldnt hesitate to buy another jp series amp ....probably will eventually add another 12 and another jp23v1.5...anyways just my opinions and facts about my usage and experiences

    I’ve had a Jp43 on 2 Skar Zvx 12s and maybe I shouldn’t admit this but they’ve been wired to a Quarter/0.25 ohms for about a whole year now. I did blow one sub but the amp has been outperforming and exceeding my expectations since the day I bought it and it’s still going strong on 0.25 ohms!! No other amps I’ve ever had will do this especially for an extended period of time and not blow. I keep it cool with a marine fan and don’t exceed temps over 52 degrees Celsius or around 130 Fahrenheit. I know my amp placement isn’t the best but it is spaced and I would post any pics anyone would want to see. The only issues I’ve ever had is one with an internal fan on my Jp34ab making a slight noise when it first powers on in colder weather which is kinda odd imo. The second issue was when the one time I did think I had a problem with my Jp43 and contacted you guys with my warranty claim and described basically every issue I was having and all the steps of trouble shooting I did… I never received a response from anyone at D4S with any useful information, trouble shooting steps I may have missed or anything even when my product was still under warranty 😑 D4S has righted a wrong order for me before but this experience left me wandering what the true intentions of the D4S brand is now. I was under the impression it is was for us the customers but it seems like it’s evolving into just another company that only cares about one thing and that is it’s products’ profitability.

    I’ve had every type of amp and it doesn’t matter if it’s designed or not designed for heavy use it will overheat if it’s hot outside and if it’s a serious Setup multiple fans and PC cooling is definitely the way. Even my 90’s setups have fans for hot days. It’s just a common sense stand point and most people don’t have it.

    Just got my JP83 installed finally 2 days ago. Been beating on it HARD wired to 1ohm and it's not gone above 90 I think at all. Hardly warm to the touch. Got it spaced properly, wired properly, powered properly, and set properly. Not under powered, and clipping it to the moon. Common sense will go far, but unfortunately it isn't so common nowadays..

    Proper voltage eliminates almost all amplifier issues... heck I ran my Orion SPLX 3000.1 at .25 ohm and it barely got warm powered using a 400 amp alternator 2 XS 3400D batteries and a bank of supercaps.

    This may sound dumb.... but why do you not build a product that solves these issues for the average dork that wants good sound? Like build the amp with enough stand off to allow the proper airflow, and then maybe further with one with cooling fins, a shade, and a fan to force cooling? Like it seems counter intuitive to give this advice but noy build it into your own products. Am I wrong?

      He may do that I. The future , but you can be sure these type of people don't accept any accountability for their install. They buy jp amp because they know it's probably the greatest amp out there but they refuse to do upgrades to assure proper function . Should jp require people to show a recipt that they have an upgraded alternator. Or no sale? No of course not!! His job is to sell a good product and give the best advice for usage , it's up to you as a buyer to do the necessary steps or you more than likely will have problems. Who are these people consulting with before undertaking such a build

    I’ve never complained on any social platform about any product that being said had a jp43 that failed due to Bluetooth bass knob supposedly a problem with the v1 jp43. Went through the motions sent it in for warranty and it literally took 5 months to receive the amp back after getting the run around calling weekly. Oh it’s done should go out this week heard that about 8 times then the best part they told me oh it’s been done but we sent it to the original place of purchase dropping hertz then magically appeared in the Mail. Bottom line amps are great customer service sucks!! Maybe focus on that more

    I have jp8. Got used I got a wire kit and it said ofc. And not any brand it was actually not even 4 gauge that it stated. And it was cca. My amp on the Fresno summer days of 110 and up has been hottest 160F. I didn’t know it was cca until a few days ago and I’m not changing out I also got stock alt big 3 with a 07 Corolla. Bass was hitting preset good but instant voltage drop of a couple volts while idle and bass on.

    Two reasons an amp overheats improper wiring and not venting. Two washers under one side and I've never been able to get over 86 degrees in 60 degree weather I've taken a 8 hour road trip full tilt under clip and never overheated. Most stout line of amps ever! Love my JP13

  • @ChadsLoud
    @ChadsLoud 9 місяців тому +3

    Had JP23's and JP234's in multiple vehicles and I have them in family members vehicles who are irresponsible - they run it 45c nonstop refuse to let me put an additional fan they keep clipping it too, it never goes into protect and has never given any of us an issue. Amazing amplifiers
    Really hoping my JP63 treats me as well as all the JP23's have, thousand for an amp is a lot for the average joe, but the power you advertise and the quality of your amplifiers and customer service... I would never go anywhere else. Team Down4Sound for life, please keep up all the excellent stuff that has been going on at D4S!!!!!

    Well I will find out, just ordered a JP13. I'm driving two low profile 12" subs at 1ohm. My Hifonics Zeus handled them for 1.5 years before taking a poo. New Hifonics is definitely not as good as the old school VII amps. I had a series VII Boltar that drove Kicker comp 15's at 2 ohm for 5 years when I was a teenager then sold my blazer. Wish I had that old school amp back! I read good reviews and watched some great dyno videos for D4S. Hope this amp lives up to those videos and ratings!

    I think i'm gonna get one of these :) I've killed my last two amps, so if anyone is going to overheat one, it'd be me somehow LMAO. Don't plan on running her down to 1ohm though so maybe she'll stay cool for my 4 ohm JL. I really like the fact you seem very passionate about your products, and it's green, and the specs are killer. I might buy the extended warranty though, just in case ;)

I'm very confident these amps are amazing if supplying proper power and don't just throw it on your floorboard. P.S I just need a better alternator...
