A favorite company of mine, JL Audio is showing two entirely new product lines and is adding two new products to existing lines, which doesn’t sound that exciting until you hear what they are.
JLs first consumer woofer was the ridiculously popular 10w1. It completely overtook the car audio industry with its small size, impressive output and small enclosure requirements. After a long run, JL replaced the W1 with many other choices, including to ever-popular W6v1 and 2, the W3v1 and 2, W0v1 and 2 and W7. Realizing that there is still a big need for a really shallow woofer that will work in a relatively small enclosure (i.e. fits in stock sub locations, under seats, in floorboards, etc) the W1 has been revived and completely redesigned with its original function remaining. These are the shallowest standard woofers ever from JL, and feature (finally) push-type binding posts and a metalized cone with a rubber surround. They’re available now in 10″, 12″ and 13.5″ flavors
