Our take on the JL Audio 13TW5V2-2 Thin-Line Car Subwoofer

The JL Audio 13TW5V2-2 is a 13.5-inch shallow-mount car subwoofer built for tight spaces. Its mounting depth is under three inches, so it fits behind seats and in shallow enclosures where a standard sub cannot go. It handles 600 W RMS and 1200 W peak with dual 2-ohm voice coils, and its 26 Hz free-air resonance lets it play low for a thin driver. Reviewers rate its output and build highly, but it needs a sealed box of about 0.8 cubic feet and real amplifier power to sound its best.

Questions and answers

How deep is the mounting depth?
It is a thin-line design under three inches deep, which is why it fits behind seats and in shallow enclosures.
What size enclosure does it need?
JL Audio specifies a sealed enclosure of roughly 0.8 cubic feet. A well-built box is key to clean, low output.
How much power does it need?
It is rated 600 W RMS and 1200 W peak. With 85.5 dB sensitivity, it wants an amplifier that can deliver that RMS power.
Is it a dual voice coil sub?
Yes. It has dual 2-ohm voice coils, so wiring options are 1 ohm or 4 ohms depending on the amplifier.
Can I use it in a boat?
No. JL Audio does not rate this sub for marine use; pick a marine-rated subwoofer for boats.
Is one enough?
For most cars, one in a sealed box gives strong bass. Two need more airspace and amplifier power.
Where is the JL Audio 13TW5V2-2 Thin-Line Car Subwoofer cheapest?
At Abt Electronics, for $929.99, as of our latest check.
