The JBL BP's will last forever. You cannot kill those amps. They are all very underrated, too. A guy in my shop at Best Buy used to run a BP1200.1 and the 4 channel amp in his b!tchin Camaro. The 1200.1 ran two 12" Rockford Fosgate HE2's and pushed to 151dbs, IIRC. Oh, and we were slow one day, so we bench tested the 1200.1 to 1434wrms.
