This bundle includes 2x JL Audio 13W3v3-4:13.5-inch (345 mm) Subwoofer Driver 4 Ohm, and a JL Audio VX1000/1i Class D Subwoofer Amplifier with integrated DSP, 1000 Watts @ 2 ohm / 600 Watts @ 4 ohm.
2x JL Audio 13W3v3-4:13.5-inch (345 mm) Subwoofer Driver 4 Ohm - (13W3v3-4)
JL Audio 13W3v3-4
W3v3 13.5-inch Subwoofer Driver (600 W, 4 Ω)
If you have the space, it makes a tremendous sense to maximize your subwoofer system's piston area to enhance efficiency (and output). It gets even better when the larger driver delivers additional power handling and excursion. For the preceding reasons, the 13W3v3 can be the best choice for those seeking high output with great sound quality at medium power levels.
As with the smaller W3v3's, several exclusive JL Audio technologies and proprietary assembly techniques are applied to the 13W3v3 to enhance linearity and reliability.
The 13W3v3-4 is best used with amplifier power in the 150W - 600W range and is optimized to operate in a moderate size 1.5 cu. ft. (42.5 l) sealed enclosure, or a 2.25 cu. ft. (63.7 l) ported enclosure. Detailed enclosure recommendations can be found in the "Specifications" tab.

1x JL Audio VX1000/1i Class D Subwoofer Amplifier with integrated DSP, 1000 Watts @ 2 ohm / 600 Watts @ 4 ohm - (VX1000/1i)
Monoblock Class D Subwoofer Amplifier with Integrated DSP, 1000 W x 1 @ 2 Ω / 600 W x 1 @ 4 Ω - 14.4V
Designed to simplify great audio, every VXi amplifier combines our advanced NexD2™ switching amplifier technology with an integrated, full-featured digital signal processor.
The VX1000/1i monoblock subwoofer amplifier outputs up to 600 watts into 4 ohms, or a jaw-dropping 1000 watts into 2 ohms. A specialized, low-frequency version of our NexD2™ amplifier technology delivers rock-solid bass performance and fidelity, with outstanding efficiency. Compact dimensions with all connections placed on one side, via mating plugs, greatly simplify installation into tight spaces.
Instead of traditional control knobs and switches, all amplifier adjustments and DSP functionality are configured via a compatible external device (PC, Tablet or Smartphone), with the appropriate JL Audio TüN™ Software application installed.
