JL Audio 12TW3-D8

TW3 12-inch Subwoofer Driver (400 W, dual 8 Ī© voice coils)


Building on the core technology of our TW5 thin-line subwoofers, the new TW3ā€™s deliver a powerful combination of shallow mounting depth and excursion capability. In fact, they are capable of greater excursion than the W3v3ā€™s.

To allow this remarkable feat to be achieved, JL Audioā€™s patented thin-line woofer technology compresses the architecture of the TW3ā€™s using a ā€œconcentric tubeā€ 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.


TW3ā€™s are optimized for small enclosures and offer our tab-ear mounting design to maximize cone area within their mounting footprints. We know youā€™re going to love working with these amazing subwoofer drivers.

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

  • Patented ā€œconcentric tubeā€ architecture
  • Patented ā€œfloating cone attach methodā€ 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 with Global Components at JL Audioā€™s Miramar, Florida factory
