JL Audio 12W0v2-4 Black 12" Subwoofer Driver - 12W0V24
W0v2 Subwoofer Drivers
The term “overbuilt” gets thrown around a lot, but in the case of the W0v2's, it actually applies.
With beefy 2.0 or 2.5-inch voice coils and our patented Elevated Frame Cooling, they're certainly capable of handling power. They also offer best-in-class excursion capability, with motors refined using our exclusive DMA modeling system for increased output and better sound quality. In simple terms, when the going gets loud, the W0v2's are built to perform like no other woofers in their price class.
This powerful combination of performance, value and installation attributes make them the “go to” choice for those seeking high performance from an affordable subwoofer system. You simply won’t believe you’re listening to our least expensive subwoofer drivers!
DMA Optimized Motor System
Highly optimized motor system delivers linear motor force over a wide range of excursion and power levels to reduce distortion. more info...
Elevated Frame-Cooling (U.S. Patent #6,219,431)
Creates a pathway for high-velocity air to flow directly across the top-plate and onto the voice coil.
Most Real Excursion in its Class
The W0v2's offer more linear excursion than our original W6 subwoofers, at less than half the price!
What does this mean for you?
- Louder Bass!
- Less Distortion!
Insanely Great Bass in Small Enclosures!
For maximum application flexibility, W0v2's are designed for use in compact sealed or medium-size ported enclosures.
