This 8-channel amp takes care of it all… and then some
JL Audio’s XD800/8v2 amp packs a wallop far beyond what you’d expect from something so small. This compact 8-channel amp plays your music with true fidelity and impressive impact, without straining your car’s electrical system. A cast alloy heatsink and an advanced cooling system keep this amp at optimal temperature, eliminating thermal shut-downs so your music keeps going strong without interruption.
Versatility
You can set up this versatile amp for just about any system so you’ll never outgrow it, no matter how your audio plans may change. It can:
- deliver 75 watts RMS per channel to 4 pairs of speakers;
- drive separate tweeters and woofers with channels 1-4, a pair of full-range speakers with channels 5-6, and a subwoofer with channels 7 and 8 bridged together;
- power four high-performance speakers with 200 watts RMS each, in 4-channel mode;
- drive separate midbass speakers, midrange speakers, and tweeters with channels 1-6, plus power a sub with channels 7 and 8 bridged;
- or power a couple of subs with 200 watts each, while leaving four channels to run your other speakers.
High- and low-pass filters on every channel give you intimate control over the character of your sound. “Differential-balanced” inputs keep the signals clear of outside noise, and allow you to connect this amp to just about any in-dash stereo, even a factory radio with no preamp outputs. An optional wired remote lets you tweak the level from your front seat.
