JL AUDIO 12 Inch Marine Subwoofer Driver with Transflective LED Lighting - M7-12IB-S-GwGw-i-4
M7-12IB-S-GwGw-i-4
M7 12-inch Marine Subwoofer with Transflective™ LED Lighting for Infinite-Baffle Use (600 W, 4 Ω) - Gloss White Trim Ring, Gloss White Sport Grille
Engineered as the reference standard for marine subwoofer performance, the M7-12IB is capable of producing staggering amounts of jaw-dropping bass in infinite-baffle applications.
Built to withstand real-world marine duty, this M7-12IB is designed to operate without a dedicated enclosure. It boasts a monstrous 4-inch voice coil and rugged suspension system to deliver outstanding linear excursion for high output and power handling.
The patent-pending Transflective™ RGB LED technology emits a smooth lighting effect through the woofer cone, with a choice of several lighting colors. Add an optional RGB controller to create thousands of color variations. Professional installation is strongly recommended.
M7-12IB is best used with amplifier power in the 200W – 600W range and is optimized to operate with a large volume of air behind it (at least 3 cu. ft. / 84.95 l).
Like all JL Audio marine speakers, this driver is built to withstand a real saltwater marine environment and deliver years of listening enjoyment.
