Description
Discover the 12TW3-D8, a 12" (30cm) subwoofer with an impressive sound image, made by the renowned manufacturer JL Audio. This subwoofer impresses with its high performance and low installation depth, and is based on the technological achievements of JL Audio's TW5 thin-line subwoofer. The 12TW3-D8 is known for its remarkable performance, which is achieved through JL Audio's patented Thin-Line woofer technology. The subwoofer is characterized among other things by its long linear excursion, its high resistance and its high output of 400W. As an extra, this subwoofer is especially optimized for small installation locations. Experience the difference JL Audio can make to your audio setup with the 12TW3-D8.
Features
- Building on the core technology of JL's TW5 thin-line subwoofers, the TW3s offer a powerful combination of low installation depth and high excursion. They are even able to realize greater excursion than the W3v3 subwoofers.
- To enable this remarkable performance, JL Audio's patented Thin-Line woofer technology compresses the TW3's architecture through a "concentric tube" structure built into the injection-molded cone body. This structure supports the voice coil and a full-ring spider while allowing the large motor structure to be placed further forward in the speaker than conventional designs.
- The TW3 are optimized for small enclosures and feature JL's lug mounting design to maximize the cone area within their mounting surface.
- Very shallow installation depth (3.50 inches)
- Very low requirements for the volume of the sealed housing
- Very long linear deflection (0.60 in / 15.2 mm, one-way linear deflection)
- DMA-optimized motor designs
- Cast alloy frame
- Membrane made of injection-molded, mica-filled polypropylene
- Rubber surround
- Aluminum alloy dust cap and back cover with JL Audio logo
- Precision engineered in the USA at the JL Audio factory in Miramar, Florida, with global components
