12W6v3-D4 Ported Enclosure Design


Technical Bulletin

The W6v3 subwoofer drivers represent a significant leap forward in performance and installation flexibility
over their highly regarded predecessors. To realize the full potential and achieve optimum performance with
the W6v3s, it is important to understand how they differ from the v2s. By design, the optimum enclosure for
a W6v3 is much smaller than the equivalent W6v2 model. If you place the v3 into an enclosure optimized for
a v2, the resulting in-car frequency response might sound bottom-heavy, sloppy and / or lacking in impact.
Vb (box volume, net internal):
For this reason, please avoid oversized “universal” pre-fabricated enclosures and build the correct 1.30 cu.ft. / 36.8 liters
enclosures for the W6v3s. Alternatively, you can choose one of JL Audio’s W6v3 Enclosed Subwoofer
Systems, which are built to the correct specifications. Fb (port tuning frequency):
