Custom finishes or other cosmetic treatments applied to products. The 1000 Series feature high-excursion 12-inch (SB-1000) and 10-inch (PB-1000) drivers and 300 watts RMS, 700+ watts peak power amplifier with advanced DSP tuning. Ask your dealer for details on warranty limitations. JL Audio’s proprietary Dynamic Motor Analysis system is a powerful suite of FEA-based modeling systems, first developed by JL Audio in 1997 and refined over the years to scientifically address the issue of speaker motor linearity. MOSFETs also represent an upgrade over the less robust integrated circuit output stages found in nearly all other Class D subwoofer amplifiers. (The warranty is not transferable and will not apply to products purchased from unauthorized dealers.) Lead-wires that are attached or woven into the spider material can alter the spider’s “stretching” behavior. Coverage may be invalidated as this date is previous to purchase date. By employing a tab-ear mounting system, the driver’s overall outside dimensions are reduced, permitting it to be mounted in a space that is very similar to that required by the next smaller round woofer frame. It’s a great complement to a pair of larger bookshelf speakers or standard sized floor standing speakers. Understanding the benefits and pitfalls of big subwoofer drivers, the technology behind them, and the things to look for when researching big subwoofers will always help you in your quest for the ultimate bass experience. Woofer Speaker Driver - 10 Inch CAT.NO: CW2198 Response speaker drivers are excellent for replacement or for new speaker design constructions • Available in multiple sizes • Coated paper cone DMA is a Finite Element Analysis (FEA)-based system, meaning that it takes a large, complex problem, breaks it down into small solution elements for analysis and then assembles the data to form an accurate, “big-picture” solution. 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. The amount and direction of the current through that coil of wire makes an electro-magnetic field which reacts against the permanent magnetic field of the motor magnets. It’s even possible for a subwoofer with a 10- or 12-inch driver to outperform a subwoofer with a larger driver if the motor magnets in the smaller subwoofer can generate greater force and exert better control over the driver. To address this, many long-excursion woofers today rely on a simple solution that weaves the lead-wires into the spider (rear suspension) of the driver. The 2000 Pro Series feature 12-inch high-excursion driver and 550 watts RMS, 1,500+ watts peak power amplifier with advanced DSP tuning and smartphone app control. In this example, the “Tab-Ear” frame design allows a 13TW5 13.5-inch driver to fit in a space only slightly larger than a conventional 12-inch woofer requires (only 0.44 in. Pushing the driver and motor assembly with effortless power is a conservatively rated 1,500 watts continuous, 5,000+ watts peak power Sledge STA-1500D amplifier with a fully discrete MOSFET output. Since most of our premium loudspeakers incorporate proprietary, patented technologies requiring specific assembly techniques, we prefer that the people who design them have close access to the people manufacturing them. Ask in the comments, or our Sound Experts are available 7 days-a-week to help you choose the best subwoofers based on your personal set-up and listening preferences. Call: 877.626.5623 | Email This was the main reason it took over 2 years of development (including a lot of blown drivers) before SVS had a design that met the reference level power and pinpoint accuracy standards of all its subwoofer designs. icons/location-white Product owned by anyone other than the original purchaser from an authorized JL Audio dealer. Product that has not been installed according to the instructions in the owner’s manual All W7’s, W6’s, TW5’s, TW3’s, TW1’s, W3v3’s and some of our ZR products. The massive voice coil girth allows the woofer to exert complete control over the 16-inch Ultra driver and remain accurate and distortion-free with pinpoint speed in transients, even at reference playback levels. Put simply, a big driver is harder to control, and offers no guarantee of greater SPLs or deeper bass than a small subwoofer. Since 1997, JL Audio has been at the forefront of Finite Element Analysis-based modeling of loudspeaker motors and suspensions. icons/phone copy Freight damage on returns is not covered under warranty. The wire attachment points can also cause localized pulling and tearing forces at the spider’s excursion limits. All warranty returns should be sent to JL AUDIO freight prepaid through an authorized JL AUDIO dealer and must be accompanied by proof of purchase (a copy of the original sales receipt.) Product damaged cosmetically due to improper handling or normal wear and tear This research is aimed at decoding what we refer to as the “Loudspeaker Genome”… a project aimed at understanding the true behavior of loudspeakers under power and in motion. / 11.2 mm bigger). Log in Installation and shipping costs associated with removing, re-installing or shipping the product to JL Audio for warranty service | Managing the ‘whipping’ behavior of the wire and making sure it does not contact the cone or spider is one challenge. To overcome these issues, JL Audio’s engineered flying lead-wires work in conjunction with carefully engineered entry and exit support structures molded into the terminals and the voice coil collar. While it is also feasible to build good quality products overseas (and we do build some of our products in Europe and Asia), it can be challenging when the product’s technology is innovative or complex. Reference performance hits new lows. Summary: Optimized for higher-powered, infinite-baffle operation, the M7-12IB subwoofers are designed to provide intense bass output, while withstanding the harsh marine environment. We also build our Marine Speaker Systems, Home Subwoofers, Stealthbox® products and the vast majority of our enclosed subwoofer systems in Florida. Polk Audio PSW505. The laws of physics dictate that a massive subwoofer driver has the potential to produce greater SPL and deeper bass than a smaller subwoofer driver. Managing the lead-wires on a long-excursion woofer is one of the trickier aspects of its mechanical design.
