$1,099.99
Amplified Subwoofer System with Dual 8W3v3-0.40 Subwoofers, Built-In 500W Class D Amplifier, Black Carpet – Ported Enclosure


With MicroSub+ systems, the power is built right into the subwoofer system. Housing a proprietary Class D amplifier, this incredible subwoofer system utilizes our exclusive DCDâ„¢ amplifier technology to extract maximum output from its specially engineered, ultra low-impedance W3v3 drivers. By combining direct power conversion with an ultra-high current output section, DCD amplifiers are free of conventional switching power supplies, enabling them to generate remarkable power with unprecedented efficiency.
Key to the enclosure’s performance is its efficient slot-ported design and precise tuning of its dual 8Wv3 Subwoofers, each in its separate airspace. Extensive interior bracing permits the use of thinner wall material that maximizes the enclosure’s internal volume relative to its exterior volume. The port for each driver wraps around two walls of the enclosure to produce the necessary low tuning frequency that ensures excellent extension and response smoothness. The two flared port entries/exits, one on each end of the enclosure, further enhance sound quality by minimizing air-flow noises through each port.
Integration to OEM and aftermarket head units is a snap thanks to a variety of input options and automatic turn-on capability (via signal sensing or DC offset sensing). Also included is a variable frequency low-pass filter (50-200 Hz), along with output polarity control switch. Adding an optional RBC-1 remote level control (sold separately) lets you control subwoofer levels directly from the driver’s seat. A quick-disconnect power connector makes it easy to remove the subwoofer when you need the extra space. As with all MicroSub systems, these amplified versions produce the kind of output and extension normally associated with much larger systems.
Note: DCD amplified systems use very specific components. Never use a DCD amplifier or its companion subwoofer(s) with incompatible, non-DCD products. Doing so will void the warranty and may cause severe damage.
Finish: Black, high-grade automotive carpet with silver “JL AUDIO” embroidery on front baffle. Steel mesh grilles are included to protect the Subwoofers.

JL Audio – 12TW3-D8 12-inch Subwoofer Driver, Dual 8 ohm
TW3 12-inch Subwoofer (400 W, dual 8 ohm voice coils)
Building on the core technology of our TW5 thin-line subwoofers, the TW3’s deliver a powerful combination of shallow mounting depth and excursion capability. In fact, they are capable of greater excursion than the W3v3’s.
To allow this remarkable feat to be achieved, JL Audio’s patented thin-line woofer technology compresses the architecture of the TW3’s using a concentric tube structure built into the injection-molded cone body. This structure supports the voice coil and a full annular spider, while permitting the placement of the large motor structure further forward in the speaker than with conventional designs.
TW3’s are optimized for small enclosures and offer our tab-ear mounting design to maximize cone area within their mounting footprints. We know you’re going to love working with these amazing Subwoofers.
Deep, powerful and accurate JL Audio bass is now possible in more applications than ever.
– Very shallow mounting depth (3.25 / 3.50 Inches)
– No pole vent: permits mounting close to rear wall of enclosure.
– Very small sealed enclosure volume requirements
– Very long linear excursion capability (0.60 In / 15.2 mm, one-way)
– DMA-optimized motor designs
– concentric tube architecture
– Patented floating cone attach method technology
– Cast alloy frame
– Injection molded, mica-filled polypropylene cone
– Rubber surround
– Aluminum-alloy dust cap and rear cap with JL Audio logoSKU: JL AUDIO - 12TW3-D8 -
