JL Audio 1000/1 Amp Cutting off


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a JL 1000/1 amplifier running 2 12w6v2 @ 4 ohm load. There are times where my amp produces close to no sound or static sounds, but it is on. The low voltage light never goes on. After I bang the amp wit my fist a few times or so, it works perfectly fine..what seems to be the problem? All the wires are connected properly as well as the RCA cables. thanks!

Bad solder joint probably. Are you comfortable with opening it up?

Open it up and check for solder joints that don't look like a nice shiny fillet.

So pretty much anything that looks dirty, crystaline or like it isn't contacting both the board and the component. Then resolder any of these bad joints. See how that goes then come back here :)

That's what makes me think it is a dodgy solder joint. Other than that I don't know what could give a bad connection.

2 weeks ago "In wikipedia i found that this sub in 1997's unofficial private SPLdB drag was burned down the dB meter! The dB was over 300 and the system burned down. Actually, 300dB is only about ¼ of this prototype sound level."

I don't know anything about guns... so when I saw the title I thought, "I wonder what kind of woofer the AR-15 is?"

*laughs*

Twisted, I would stay away from that guy, the next video he uploads could be you tied up in his living room while being forced to watch him "swag and cook" in person, lol.
