JL Audio has introduced their next generation XD car audio amplifiers, calling the new series XDv2. The company’s NexD switching technology that debuted in the original XD amplifiers carries over unchanged to the XDv2’s, as does the compact chassis design and flexible crossover designs.
The XDv2 amplifiers differ from their predecessors in that they offer the convenience of automatic turn-on (signal or DC-offset sensing), making them easier to integrate with OEM systems. JL Audio has also upgraded the input section to have equal capabilities as the company’s flagship HD amplifiers, accepting a wide range of input signals, from line-level all the way to high-power speaker level signals (with a dual-range switch). The final tweak is an improved remote level circuit, with more linear behavior.
