Frequently Asked Questions about 12TW1-2


Welche Größe hat der 12TW1-2 Subwoofer von JL Audio?

The 12TW1-2 subwoofer from JL Audio has a nominal diameter of 300 mm or 12.0 inches and an overall diameter of 314 mm or 12.375 inches. Its mounting depth is only 117 mm, which corresponds to about 4.62 inches. This compact size, combined with its powerful excursion, makes it ideal for installation in tight spaces without having to compromise on high-quality bass. The motor of this subwoofer has an outer diameter of 145 mm, which represents an optimal balance between size and performance.

Wie funktioniert die Thin-Line-Subwoofer-Technologie beim 12TW1-2?

The Thin-Line subwoofer technology of the 12TW1-2 is based on a compressed architecture that allows for a large motor structure to be integrated at the front of the speaker. This is supported by a 'concentric tube' structure that is built into the injection-molded cone body. This enables the voice coil to operate efficiently while the annular spider stabilizes the driver. This construction allows for high excursion despite a shallow installation depth, making it particularly suitable for tight installation spaces without compromising sound quality.

Welche Gehäusespezifikationen sind für den 12TW1-2 Subwoofer geeignet?

The 12TW1-2 subwoofer is designed for both sealed and bass reflex enclosures. In a sealed enclosure, the net volume is 0.65 cu ft or 18.41 L, with a recommended wall thickness of 19 mm. For bass reflex enclosures, the net volume should be 1.125 cu ft or 31.86 L, also with a wall thickness of 19 mm. The dimensions for bass reflex enclosures include an outer width of 806 mm, height of 406 mm, and depth of 178 mm. These specific requirements ensure that the subwoofer achieves its maximum sound performance.

Wie viel Verstärkerleistung benötigt der JL Audio 12TW1-2 optimalerweise?

The JL Audio 12TW1-2 subwoofer is designed for a recommended amplifier power between 75 and 300 watts RMS. Its continuous power handling is also rated at 300 watts RMS. These power requirements ensure that the subwoofer operates both stably and efficiently to deliver the best possible audio quality. Additionally, it is advisable to use an amplifier that supports adjustment to the nominal impedance of 2 Ω for optimal results.

Welche Materialien werden beim 12TW1-2 Subwoofer verwendet?

The 12TW1-2 subwoofer from JL Audio is constructed from high-quality materials to ensure long-lasting performance. The cone is made of injection-molded, mica-filled polypropylene, which is both lightweight and rigid to minimize distortion. The surround is made of rubber, providing additional protection and flexibility. The frame is made of a flat-edged cast alloy, allowing for a tight attachment to the chassis. This choice of materials not only supports audio quality but also ensures a durable and robust construction of the subwoofer.

Welche Auslenkung erreicht der 12TW1-2 Subwoofer?

The 12TW1-2 subwoofer from JL Audio has an exceptional linear excursion of 0.40 inches or 10 mm in one direction, which is remarkable for a subwoofer of this shallow mounting depth. This excursion allows the subwoofer to achieve deep and precise bass reproduction, even in tight installation environments. Thanks to the patented Thin-Line architecture, the subwoofer can still deliver impressive bass performance despite its compact design.

Welche Einbautiefen sind für den 12TW1-2 erforderlich?

The installation depth for the 12TW1-2 subwoofer is only 117 mm, giving it an exceptionally small size. This allows for its installation in vehicles or applications where space is limited. Despite this compactness, the patented design allows for a large range of motion for the speaker. This combination of shallow installation depth and high performance is a breakthrough in subwoofer design and makes the 12TW1-2 the ideal choice for many installation scenarios.

Wie hoch ist der Wirkungsgrad des 12TW1-2?

The 12TW1-2 subwoofer offers an efficiency of 85.07 dB SPL at 1 watt input power measured at a distance of one meter. This efficiency parameter is crucial for achieving a high sound pressure level with comparatively low amplifier power. Higher efficiency means that the subwoofer can play louder at lower power consumption, making it ideal for more portable installations and applications where energy efficiency is a key factor.

Welche Resonanzfrequenz hat der JL Audio 12TW1-2?

The free air resonance frequency (Fs) of the JL Audio 12TW1-2 subwoofer is 35.06 Hz. This frequency is a crucial parameter and indicates at which frequency the subwoofer can oscillate most efficiently in its free suspension. Lower resonance frequencies suggest the ability to reproduce deeper frequencies particularly well, which manifests in a richer bass reproduction. The resonance frequency is therefore an essential component for assessing the bass capabilities of this subwoofer.

Welche speziellen Designmerkmale besitzt der 12TW1-2?

The 12TW1-2 features a number of special design characteristics, including the 'concentric tube' structure to support the voice coil, which surpasses a conventionally limited architecture. The rubber surround and the injection-molded cone made of mica-filled polypropylene contribute to robustness and sound purity. Additionally, the specially designed die-cast alloy frame offers an improved chassis arrangement due to its flat edges. Together, these elements contribute to the exceptional sound quality and durability that professional users of JL Audio expect.
