Clean and Efficient W3v3 Series JL Audio Woofers

The JL Audio 6W3v3-8 is rated at 150W RMS and has an 8 ohm impedance. This woofer is perfect for those looking to add some bass to their door panels or even a center console. The 8 ohm impedance makes its unique and nothing is better for this woofer than the JL Audio XD200/2 which is rated at 8 ohms stable. This 6.5" speaker will open your ears to the world of sound that you have been missing through out the years.

JL Audio is all about performance and quality. They manufacture products to meet extremely high standards and anything less than those standards is not good enough to carry the JL Audio name. The W3v3 subwoofer is one of the cleanest, most efficient, and best sounding subwoofers in its class. This series is available in a 6.5”, 8”, 10”, 12”, and 13.5” size woofer that can pretty much fit any vehicle size. The W3v3 features a DM Optimized Motor System that provides constant and strong linear excursion that result in reduced distortion and higher bass reproduction. These woofers also feature Elevated Frame Cooling technology that delivers cool air directly to the voice coil of the woofer. This increases power handling and sound quality. The W3v3 series subwoofers offer many more patented technologies that truly make this series stand out above the rest. If you are struggling on a decision, the decision if simple JL Audio, it will never disappoint.

Great small cabin bass that takes up very little real estate

I installed 2 of these subs in a 2002 BMW 3-series coupe. I didn't want a box in the trunk, so I removed the side interior panels for the rear seat. I found a small cavity about 4-1/2" deep about 1 cubic foot in space, so I sealed it up and cut out a steel panel for the subs to mount too. I cut a section of the panels out in front of the subs and mounted them back up.
Powering them in parallel with the 300 watts RMS from the fifth channel off of a Alpine PDX-5, I get a nice amount of personal bass that hits hard and fills the cabin.
