They're both great amps with a good reputation. You can't go wrong with either one. The PDX has the smaller footprint obviously. |

JL 1000/1 is better. Consider the kicker 1000.1 if you need 1000wmrs at 2ohms. http://www.hifisoundconnection.com/Shop/Control/Product/fp/SFV/30046/vpid/251726 6/vpcsid/0/rid/123284 Cant beat that price^^ If you need 1000wmrs at 4ohms then I would say go BIG with the JL. If you're gonna drop $400 on the Alpine, what's another $100-150?? |

So much better? I would not drop the coin for either to be honest. The reason I would say JL over Alpine is resale value. |
