Its no competition... JL by far. I can't believe you could even consider DLS. That said, I would also look into Audison as well. My next amp will either be Audison or JL.

they are both very very good amps. I am bias tho and would say to get JL Audio as i have a boot full of it ;)

The subs are FAB, i have only blown 1 JL in all the time i have had mine :lol: (about a year and a bit now)

They do drop wickedly (if run correctly, like our big man trotty)

So yeah GO GO JL

I've got the 500/1 running 2 JL 12W3-V2D2's and its great IMO - thoroughly recommended :)

JL subs have one flaw they can't handle dirty signals very well for long periods, so a good clean signal amp is essencial...
