JL Audio 10W1v2-8

The all-new W1v2's are poised to establish a new standard for affordable bass excellence thanks to technologies originally developed for our flagship W7 and W6v2 subwoofers.

These include JL Audios patented VRC™, Elevated Frame-Cooling and Floating Cone Attach Method™ technologies, along with an innovative, insert-molded spider assembly with integral push-terminals and special strain-relief features.

As with JL Audios flagship drivers, development was guided by JL Audios proprietary DMA modeling system to deliver outstanding dynamic stability and low-distortion operation within their intended power envelope. Optimized for compact enclosures and moderate power levels, and specifically engineered to reduce mounting depth, the W1v2's open up a whole new range of application options.

An injection-molded, metallic-finish polypropylene cone with an embossed metallic JL Audio logo provides a classy new look, while a removable (and customizable) mounting flange trim ring receives grille-mesh inserts directly, without the need for additional grille hardware. (Grille mesh inserts are sold separately.)

DMA Optimized Motor System

DMA is JL Audios proprietary Dynamic Motor Analysis system and is aimed at improving dynamic motor behavior. As a result of DMA optimization, W1v2 motors remain linear in motor force over a long range of excursion and also maintain a highly stable fixed magnetic field in the gap over a wide power range. This leads to vastly reduced distortion and faithfully reproduced transients... or put simply: tight, clean, articulate bass.

Elevated Frame-Cooling

The elevated frame design of the W1v2 delivers cool air through slots directly above the top-plate to the voice coil of the speaker. This not only enhances power handling, but also sound quality by minimizing dynamic parameter shifts and power compression.

Floating Cone Attach Method (FCAM™)

This assembly technique, conceived by JL Audio, ensures proper surround geometry in the assembled speaker for better excursion control and dynamic voice coil alignment.

Surround Stree-Relief

Promotes smooth, consistent surround behavior at all excursion levels by providing a radius on the cone edge.

Interlocking Cone & Dust Cap

The W1v2's utilize a dust cap that is not just glued, but also interlocks with features molded into the cone body for a tight snap-fit. This creates a more rigid cone assembly and a more reliable dust cap attachment.

Vented Reinforcement Collar

Further enhances cooling by forcing air to flow across the top of the voice coil. The VRC™ also reinforces the critical cone / spider / voice coil joint, resulting in superior mechanical integrity.

Insert Molded Suspension / Coil / Terminal Sub-Assembly

Ensures precise lead wire length, lead wire entry and exit angles and coil to spider perpendicularity.

Customizable Trim Ring

This removable ring can be painted to match the installation theme and is also designed as a receptacle for grille mesh inserts (sold separately).
