Which JL Audio amplifier should I choose?

The JD Series is the most accessible entry point, with monoblock sub amps from £209 and 4- or 5-channel options from £279, all using Class D NexD technology. The RD Series builds on this with NexD™ technology and adds an onboard LED clipping indicator to simplify setup; it also extends the range with a 6-channel model and a 1500 W monoblock. The XD Series covers 2- and 3-channel configurations for simpler installs, while the XDM Series is the choice for marine or combined car and boat use. The HD Series steps up with wide-range Class D designs that drive loads from 1.5 to 4 ohms, offering greater flexibility with demanding speaker setups.

At the top of the range, the VXi Series integrates a full DSP configured entirely via JL Audio's TüN software, removing the need for separate signal processing hardware. The VXi range includes monoblock, 4-channel, 5-channel and 8-channel models, and multiple VXi amplifiers can be networked using the VXi-HUB (sold separately).
