Once you begin to analyze the technology and the performance envelope of a JL Audio W7AE, you realize that these are much more than just 'big SPL speakers'.
The W7AE embodies JL Audio's commitment to pushing the envelope of speaker technology, with six patented technologies and a completely unique set of component parts. Each W7AE model has been meticulously engineered to reproduce sub-bass with extreme fidelity at any volume level.
The final product is a completely original design from surround to back-plate, requiring a significant tooling investment for all of the component parts. Each individual W7AE model is a completely unique design and shares no major parts with its siblings, because each motor and each suspension system is specifically designed and tuned for that model. Even the bolts and screws used to assemble the speaker have been purpose-designed and manufactured to JL's specifications.
The result is the ultimate subwoofer driver... one which can thrill you equally with finesse or brute force and delivers a musical listening experience like no other.
