there is no compatition between those two amps. Go HCCA all the way. Its output at 14.4 volts is around 950 watts. But remember it is true power where the JBL is rated at 1200 at 14.4 and it will prob only do 1100 so they are very close in power but the class a/b over the class D makes the Orion a far superior amp also the slew rate,damping factor,gold line inputs,and lots of other things that I am sure Isaac will tell you about I think he has the post saved because he has to write it like 3 times a day lol.
