Automotive Passive Subwoofer Systems and Drivers

TW5-Series 13.5-Inch 600-Watt Thin Subwoofer Driver, 2-Ohm or 4-Ohm SVC The JL Audio 13.5" TW5v2 thin subwoofer driver uses a chassis with a “concentric tube” structure that supports the 7-inch diameter voice coil and the suspension attachments. This permits placement of the large motor structure much further forward in the subwoofer chassis than with conventional thin sub designs, while allowing excellent linear excursion capability and mechanical stability. The 13TW5v2 improves upon the original 13-Inch TW5 driver with 13% greater linear excursion capability. The cast alloy chassis has also been modified for greater strength and the redesigned motor now features an annular vent. The v2 is available in single 2-ohm and single 4-ohm voice coil configurations. In keeping with its “tight-spaces” mission, the 13TW5v2 is optimized for enclosures that are far smaller than most 12-inch woofers require and only a bit larger than the air space needs of a typical, small-box 12-inch woofer. The mounting system is designed to fit in about the same footprint as a typical 12-inch woofer. The JL Audio 13TW5v2-2 and the 13TW5v2-4 thin subwoofers are best used with amplifier power in the 250-Watt - 600-Watt range and is optimized to operate in a 0.80 cu. ft. (22.7 l) sealed enclosure. Never has such high-quality subwoofers-bass been possible in the most challenging thin installation applications.

W7-Series 13.5-Inch 1500-Watt RMS Subwoofer Driver, 1.5-Ohm DVC The JL Audio 13.5" W7AE audiophile reference grade automotive subwoofer driver offers a staggering linear excursion envelope that exceeds 1.25 inches (32 mm) one-way, with a suspension excursion of over 4-inches, peak-to-peak. The performance from this 13.5-Inch driver is reserved for the most demanding applications. The JL 13W7AE sub is not ideal for light capacity vehicles with small enclosure spaces. In larger capacity vehicles, enclosure limits simply vanish and amazing sub-bass from this 13.5" W7AE driver happens... on all fronts, at any level. JL's most potent subwoofer driver is best used with an amplifier in the 500W - 1500W RMS range and is optimized to operate in a 1.875 cu. ft. (53.1 l) sealed enclosure, or a 2.375 cu. ft. (67.3 l) ported enclosure. The JL Audio 13W7AE-D1.5 (Anniversary Edition) Subwoofers celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the launch of the W7 subwoofers. Functionally, they are identical to the original W7's, but are they distinguished by the following cosmetic differences: Satin-Black Powdercoated Baskets Bright Anodized Surround Clamp Ring Anniversary Edition Cone Badge Anniversary Edition Terminal Label General Specifications Continuous Power Handling 1500W RMS Recommended Amplifier Power 500W - 1500W RMS Nominal Impedance Dual 1.5Ω JL Audio 13W7AE Manual
