JL Audio 12W1v2-4

I bought this 12" sub because I know JL Audio is always a top speaker in its class. I used to own a W6 many years ago and this speaker I think sounds better! Very impressed and overwhelmed that it sounds this good, shocked actually! Running 270 W RMS to it in a sealed 1.20 cuft box and it drops!!! But this sub is on spot! Not too over bearing but gives your incredible low sound and depth to your music.

My system is very small, and for the sub, I have a ported box in the back. I don't even use subs that are dvc yet because that would mean more power which I can't afford.

Previous sub: 12" Alpine svc which Blew after 1 yr
Current sub: 12" JL sub, svc hits harder and cleaner than the Alpine

I am very happy with my JL Audio 12W1v2-4 subwoofer and will purchase again when I need more quality audio products!

This sub is built very well and like all other JL audio products it has great sound quality. I had 2 in a 4 cu. ft. box and they sounded great and had pretty good excursion even thought i was only giving them 200 rms a piece. I recommend for an high entry level setup.

I have one of these hooked up to a Tarantula 800w Soundstream amp. Its dialed about half and hits great. I'm looking to get another. The Soundstream amp is 2 channel and would def handle both great. One negative is in a small car (99 mustang), Dynamat or something is prob necessary because when I turn up just one of these subs it rattles the trunk too much. Don't get me wrong the sub hits and remains low and at good pitch its just the car that rattles. I usually pull the seat down in the back (exposing the trunk for a little more resonance). The sound quality remains even at very high volume. One thing else that you prob would wanna know is that yes these subs hit and sound great even at double pedal metal bass drum or slow hard hitting rap, but the thump outside the car isn't as loud as you would expect or at all. But personally I don't care that I'm not that d*****bag that thinks he has a nice system rolling down the street.
