Detailed description
Detailed description
Designed for marine and automotive environments, the JL Audio XDM1000/5 is a 5-channel Class D amplifier. It delivers a total power output of 1000 watts RMS, suitable for powering a complete audio system with satellite speakers and a subwoofer.
Power and architecture
The XDM1000/5 amplifier features NexD™ Class D switching amplification architecture. It provides an RMS power output of 75 watts x 4 channels + 400 watts x 1 channel at 4 ohms, or 100 watts x 4 channels + 600 watts x 1 channel at 2 ohms. In bridged mode, it delivers 200 watts RMS x 2 channels at 4 ohms + 600 watts RMS x 1 channel at 2 ohms. The minimum impedance load is 2 ohms in stereo mode and 4 ohms in bridged mode for channels 1 to 4, and 2 ohms for the mono subwoofer channel.
Audio processing and connectivity
The filtering system includes variable high-pass filters for channels 1 and 2 (50-500 Hz, 12 dB/octave) with a x10 multiplier for a range of 500-5000 Hz. Channels 3 and 4 feature variable high-pass or band-pass filters (50-500 Hz, 12 dB/octave). The subwoofer channel is equipped with a low-pass filter (50-500 Hz, 12 or 24 dB/octave). The unit can be configured as an active 3-way filter. The differential balanced inputs help reduce noise, and the input sensitivity accepts up to 4 Vrms for speaker-level inputs. The device includes automatic turn-on capability via signal detection or DC offset, and is compatible with optional HD-RLC or MHD-RLC remote level controllers.
Construction and installation
The XDM1000/5 features marine-grade construction with a black powder-coated finish, a sealed control cover, and stainless steel hardware. For safety, an 80A fuse is required on the main power cable, to be installed within 45 cm of the battery’s positive connection. Power wiring requires 4 AWG cable.
