JL Audio 12TW3-D4 12" Pair (2) Shallow Mount Subwoofers Dual 4 ohm DVC 400w RMS
PAIR (2) 12TW3 12-inch Subwoofer (400 W, dual 4 Ω 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 logo
- Precision-built in USA at JL Audio's Miramar, Florida factory with global components

About Us
We've been doing this car audio thing for over 30 years for one primary reason... Passion. We got bit by the car stereo bug early on and we've loved it ever since. We know we're a bit fanatical, but in the best possible way.Hey, I'm Eric and I'm the main guy behind Edge Custom Audio. What started as a fun hobby back in the 90s soon became a business venture with a focus on gear. While I've enjoyed installing for many years, the satisfaction of the process was often overshadowed by the desire for the next best thing. The common theme with every completed project has been wondering "what if we had used that different amplifier" or "how would it sound with those other speakers". I've learned to embrace being a gearhead and appreciate the opportunity to share that with you.Our team here at Edge Custom Audio is all about quality. Quality products, quality service, and quality processes. We communicate personally because we're all just people after all. We ship in a safe and timely manner because we know you're excited to get your new gear. We stand behind everything we do because, well, it's the right way to operate. In the end, we know you're entrusting us with your hard-earned cash and we don't take that lightly.
