JL Audio

W1-Series 8-Inch 150-Watt Subwoofer Driver, 4-Ohm SVC The 8W1v3 is an outstanding choice when space is very tight and amplifier power is moderate. It features shallow mounting depth (3.86 in. / 98 mm) and a compact motor structure, allowing it to comfortably fit in a lot of spaces where a typical 8-inch driver will not. Lacking a pole vent, the rear of the motor structure can be placed directly against an enclosure boundary. Excellent excursion capability and linearity allow it to reproduce sub-bass with shocking extension and quality. Several of JL Audio's proprietary technologies enhance its performance and reliability. The 8W1v3-4 is best used with amplifier power in the 50W - 150W range and is optimized to operate in a compact 0.350 cu. ft. (9.90 l) sealed enclosure. General Specifications Continuous Power Handling (RMS) 150 W Recommended Amplifier Power (RMS) 50 - 150 W Nominal Impedance (Znom) 4 Ω JL Audio 8W1v3 Manual

W3-Series 8-Inch 250-Watt Subwoofer Driver, 4-Ohm SVC If you need an 8-inch subwoofer that can create outstanding bass in extremely small enclosures, the 8W3v3 will do the job and surprise you with its power and accuracy. It employs the same technologies as its larger diameter brethren to deliver a whopping 0.375 in. (10 mm) of controlled, one-way, linear excursion. The 8W3v3-4 is best used with amplifier power in the 75W - 250W range and is optimized to operate in a tiny 0.30 cu. ft. (8.5 l) sealed enclosure, or a 0.35 cu. ft. ported enclosure. Detailed enclosure recommendations can be found in the "Specifications" tab. General Specifications Continuous Power Handling (RMS) 250 W Recommended Amplifier Power (RMS) 75- 250 W Nominal Impedance (Znom) 4 Ω JL Audio 8W3v3 Manual

MicroSub-Series 8-Inch 250-Watt Enclosed Subwoofer System, 4Ω Ported Enclosure  This incredible MicroSub™ subwoofer system delivers the kind of output and extension that is normally possible with only much larger systems. The key to its performance lies in the precise tuning of its 8W3v3 subwoofer driver into an efficient slot-ported design. Extensive interior bracing permits the use of thinner wall material that maximizes the enclosure's internal volume relative to its exterior volume. The port wraps around two walls of the enclosure to produce the necessary low tuning frequency that ensures excellent extension and response smoothness. The flared port entry and exit further enhance sound quality by minimizing air-flow noises through the port. This subwoofer system is shipped wired, loaded and ready to connect via a five-way binding post terminal. Finish: Black, high-grade automotive carpet with silver "JL AUDIO" embroidery on front baffle. A steel mesh grille is included to protect the subwoofer driver. Construction: CNC-Cut High-Grade MDF Recommended amplifier power: 100 - 250WNominal Impedance: 4 Ω General Specifications Continuous Power Handling (RMS) 250 W System Nominal Impedance 4 Ω Enclosure Type Slot-ported, Low-profile Finish Black carpet Grille Included Black Steel Mesh Physical Specifications External Width (W) 18.625 in / 473 mm External Height (H) 11.0 in / 279 mm External Depth (D1) 5.125 in / 130 mm Net Weight 17.40 lb / 7.89 kg JL Audio CP108LG-W3v3 Brochure

W3-Series 250-Watt Amplified 8-Inch Ported Subwoofer System With MicroSub+™ systems, the power is built right into the subwoofer system. Housing a proprietary Class D amplifier, this incredible subwoofer system utilizes JL Audio's exclusive DCD™ amplifier technology to extract maximum output from its specially engineered, ultra low-impedance W3v3 driver. By combining direct power conversion with an ultra-high current output section, DCD™ amplifiers are free of conventional switching power supplies, enabling them to generate remarkable power with unprecedented efficiency. Key to the enclosure’s performance is its efficient slot-ported design and precise tuning of its 8Wv3 subwoofer driver. Extensive interior bracing permits the use of thinner wall material that maximizes the enclosure's internal volume relative to its exterior volume. The port wraps around two walls of the enclosure to produce the necessary low tuning frequency that ensures excellent extension and response smoothness. The flared port entry and exit further enhance sound quality by minimizing air-flow noises through the port. Integration to OEM and aftermarket head units is a snap thanks to a variety of input options and automatic turn-on capability (via signal sensing or DC offset sensing). Also included is a variable frequency low-pass filter (50-200 Hz), along with output polarity control switch. Adding an optional RBC-1 remote level control (sold separately) lets you control subwoofer levels directly from the driver’s seat. A quick-disconnect power connector makes it easy to remove the subwoofer when you need the extra space. As with all MicroSub™ systems, these amplified versions produce the kind of output and extension normally associated with much larger systems. Note: DCD™ amplified systems use very specific components. Never use a DCD™ amplifier or its companion subwoofer(s) with incompatible, non-DCD™ products. Doing so will void the warranty and may cause severe damage. Finish: Black, high-grade automotive carpet with silver "JL AUDIO" embroidery on front baffle. A steel mesh grille is included to protect the subwoofer driver. Construction: CNC-Cut High-Grade MDF Amplifier power: Built-in DCD™ Class D amplifier (250 W @ 0.40 Ω)Nominal Impedance: 0.40 Ω Enclosure and Subwoofer Built in USA with global components.

W7-Series 8-Inch 500-Watt Subwoofer Driver, 3-Ohm SVC This subwoofer driver has been called the "best damn 8-inch subwoofer ever made" for its remarkable performance capabilities and design attributes. An impressive linear excursion envelope that exceeds 0.75 in. (19 mm) one-way allows it to deliver impact well beyond the range of other 8-inch subwoofer drivers. The 8W7AE is best used with amplifier power in the 200W - 500W range and is optimized to operate in a 0.875 cu. ft. (24.8 l) sealed enclosure, or a 1.0 cu. ft. ported enclosure. Detailed enclosure recommendations can be found in the "Specifications" tab. W7AE (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 (RMS) 500 W Recommended Amplifier Power (RMS) 200 - 500 W Nominal Impedance (Znom) 3 Ω JL Audio 8W7AE Manual
