Amazing Sound

I've always chosen JL audio for my car audio installs.

In a steal box environment it sounds absolutely amazing. I'm running a single 12" and couldn't be happier.

dis shit bangs

badass sub with right amp n set up 300 500 max amp I run one in a single cab truck in it and I can't keep my review mirror straight hits hard for one Jl audio sub buy it u will b hella pleased

Great mid-line sub

This is my first 12" sub. I have used 10" in past. This one seems to offer a little lower frequency extension, with great control. I like rock and in a small sealed enclosure, it is plenty fast enough to keep up. Volume is great with 300w RMS 2 ohm. So far no cons, works as I expect it to.

amazing speaker quality

very nicely made and sounds very good on 300w amp

Great sound quality

This is my 2nd JL sub after owning a 12W0 and they both sound great. The W1 sounds slightly better so I’d recommend it over the W0 For the extra $60-80. In a sealed truck box, I’m running it off of a JL JX 250/1 and LC2i along with the factory head unit.

I was sent 2 different subs

First off these subs are awesome. Great bang for the buck. I ordered 2 of these & of course come to know now that sonic electronix dropped the ball & sent me 1 2ohm sub & 1 4ohm sub. So once again I had to contact them, send pics & then mail one back & wait a week to get the correct one that I should have gotten in the first place. Once again save your time & money & just buy your items from crutchfield.

Nice box

Pair with the right woofers and you will be happy. Wouldn't put anything crazy high powered in it. Box is tuned to 38hz. Sounds good, it doesnt hit the super lows in rap hard, but 95% of songs sound great. Used in a 2020 Ford Fusion. Fit with no issues.
