JL Audio subwoofers are subwoofers in the true sense of the word. Every aspect of their design has been optimized to produce optimum fidelity below 100Hz. Being a precision loudspeaker, JL Audio subwoofers must be installed in a properly designed and constructed enclosure. Your JL Audio dealer has extensive application information for your speaker. Some basic enclosure information is provided here. If this enclosure information is not applicable to your vehicle, please contact your local authorized JL Audio dealer for further assistance.

We recommend the use of this speaker in a bi-amplified system using high-quality satellite speakers such as the JL Audio Evolution systems. We do not recommend the use of JL Audio subwoofers with a passive crossover (coil), as this type of device will adversely affect performance.
