Description Crutchfield Hands-on Research
 

JL Audio amplifiers feature bass-boost circuitry to help you adjust low-frequency impact in your vehicle. The RBC-1 wired remote bass control works with all of JL Audio's A-Series, G-Series, mono JX-Series, and most Slash v2 amps. You can mount the RBC-1 controller in the front of your vehicle and dial in the amount of bass you want from the driver's seat — mounting instructions, hardware, and a 18' cable are included.

Connect the RBC-1 to your amp, and it converts the amp's selectable bass boost (0 or 6 dB) to a variable boost (0 to 12 dB). With the Slash v2 amps, the RBC-1 takes the place of the amp's boost knob, allowing you to adjust your bass boost from 0 to 15 dB. With JX-Series mono amps, the RBC-1 controls the amp's level, from full mute to full volume.

Plenty of cord, functions flawlessly, install is easy.


 
Bass control for JL amp April-30-11
Reviewer: markn from omaha, ne  
great product, works flawlessly.


 
Great addition to JL amps! February-17-10
Reviewer: Anonymous person from Columbus, OH  
Well this control works just like expected.  Great to have quick control over the amount of pass my JL 10W3 is putting out as I listen to all kinds of music on a regular basis.

I did want to pass along a few notes for others who are thinking of installing this.  To get this to work on the amps you must have a few settings on the amp right:

1. The low pass filter on the amplifier must be turned on.
2. The bass boost switch must be turned to the on position.
...seems pretty obvious but these instructions are not included with the RBC-1 but can be found in the actual amplifier's manual.

Lastly, I'm running the G4500 4-channel in a 3-way setup.  The front channels are powering a pair of JL VR components and the rear channels are bridged to a 10W3.  A nice touch to this is that the Bass Boost w/ the RBC-1 only controls the rear channels which is perfect for anyone looking for this type of setup!

If you need to control the amount of bass your JL Audio 500/1 amp is kicking out, this is the device.  If you play a variety of music genres, you'll need some bass control.  This product does exactly that.


 
JL Audio Bass Knob September-17-08
Reviewer: mark from Livermore, CA  
This knob is pretty helpful.  I like to listen to a pretty wide range of music, so when I change over from Rap to Country, this makes it easy to leave the settings on the radio alone and to just turn the knob to get the bass where I like it.  I had the knob custom installed in the ash tray, but honestly it was a pain, so I had it moved to just underneath the armrest.  If you get this, make sure you give it some fore-thought, as it where your installer should put it; otherwise, you'll regret it.
