Jl Audio 12W3 Car Subwoofer Questions & Answers
Three jl w3 single coil
You can't run parrallel on 3 single voice coil subwoofers. If you run all the negatives from each coil and possitives from each coil to one terminal you will be dividing the ohms by 3. I don't think JL ever made a single voice coil 2 ohm subwoofer though. If you ran a parrallel on 3 8 ohms you would be at 2.7 ohms. 3 4 ohm would put you down to 1.3
Car Sub JL 12w3 low sound
So I am assuming that you have just setup/wired this up recently? Have you had this working before?
You can have a look at the gain control on the amp & see if this have been set really low. This will help if the signal coming from your stereo is weak. The other thing I would suggest is to make sure that the amp can actually push this sub. I know what the specs say:
- 1 channel audio amplifier
- 1 x 350W RMS @ 1.0% THD
- ThermalThrote full-on power assurance
- 2 ohms stable (non-bridged mode only)
- RCA type inputs
- 0.3-6.0 VRMS input capability
- Continuously variable High-Pass & Low Pass 50-250 Hz
- Continuously variable Bass Boost settings (0 tp +12dB)
- Frequency responce: 10-30,000 Hz
- S/N >104 dBA at full power @ 0.1% THD
- >80 dBA at 1W/1M
- Remote gain control, mounting hardware & screws included
but I don't believe most of these. Many manufacturers embellish what their products can actually do! With the bigger more established brands such as JL Audio you will have no problems, their products have been tried & tested so much on the competition circuit.
12W3V2-D4 ENCLOSURE???
They need 1.4-1.7 cubic ft per sub(ported box) less if it is sealed but I wouldn't recommend that, it sounds like ****. Google "Re audio box calculator" and use it to adjust your dementions to your application
Subs
6ohm i believe i have a pair of them though and i wired them to 1.5ohm
