JL Audio W3v3 Series 12" Subwoofer 4-Ohm 12W3v3-4

All-around performance in small enclosures at medium power levels.

W3v3 subwoofers offer phenomenal performance in medium power applications, without requiring a large enclosure.

This latest generation of W3 drivers benefits from a whole suite of advanced technologies originally developed for our flagship W7 subwoofers. A DMA-optimized motor system permits long, linear excursion capabilities, with minimal distortion and increased output, while multiple patented technologies enhance performance and reliability. These advances make these W3’s the best sounding, most reliable yet.

A mineral-filled, polypropylene, upper cone body with a metallic JL Audio logo medallion provides a simple, classy look. A removable (and customizable) mounting flange trim ring receives grille-mesh inserts (sold separately) directly, without the need for additional grille hardware.

All W3v3 subwoofers are built to exacting quality standards in our Miramar, Florida factory with global components and are offered in five sizes, ranging from 6.5-inch to 13.5-inch nominal diameters.
