What customers say about "Size & Weight"
JL Audio 10TW1-4 10" 300W RMS 600W Max 4-Ohm TW1 Subwoofer
- The weight and size is ideal for placing it in the trunk.
- Quite large but attractive, therefore, the size can be considered one of the features.
- It was easy to install. Good sound for that size. Exceeded all my expectations.
- A bit hard finding a box that fits it well because dimensions of sub are non-standard in comparison with analogues.
- It is too big and does not look beautiful in my car and takes up a lot of space.
JL Audio 10TW3-D4 Shallow-mount 10
- If you want to save space or you have a truck these are a must.
- Great sound built sealed enclosure. Fits in small space.
- It sounds great! It doesn't need to much space!
- Great sound and reaction slim fit easy to conceal. The size and weight suits me perfectly.
- Very weak mount for such a heavy subwoofer. Tore off the mount and tore off the wire, now you need to buy a new one.

What customers say about "Audio"
JL Audio 10TW1-4 10" 300W RMS 600W Max 4-Ohm TW1 Subwoofer
- The speaker sounds great and has very good punch.
- Great sub! Nice build quality and amazing sound out of such a small package!
- Great sub at a great price, the sound this thing puts out is top shelf quality.
- Sensitivity 82.2 in 2019 looks ridiculous. You need to buy only in pairs if you want to hear a good music.
- The sound is very distorted, which annoys me a lot.
JL Audio 10TW3-D4 Shallow-mount 10
- Jl does it again this sub is powerful and has great quality. Shallow mount is great for trucks.
- Fantastic! They hit the lows you would expect from a good 12 inch woofer.
- This little sub delivers unbelievable sound! I built a sealed box and can't believe how good it sounds. You will not be disappointed!
- It's the quality you'd expect from JL. Сlean sound, great depth, wonderful frequency response.
- The sound went bad after a month of use, I think that if you replace some of the details everything will work perfectly.

What customers say about "Features"
JL Audio 10TW1-4 10" 300W RMS 600W Max 4-Ohm TW1 Subwoofer
- Installation turned out to be very easy and fast.
- Its design has a lot of nice features that make it one of the best.
- Made from high quality materials that last for many years.
- Tab-Ear Frame Design is ideal for installation in hard to reach places.
- The sub starts to bask after an hour of use, I returned it back.
JL Audio 10TW3-D4 Shallow-mount 10
- The top quality u can get. It picks up 12 bass and some 15 bass. Super clean sound.
- These are some of the best subs I've heard in awhile, much better than other shallow mount subs and even most standard subs.
- It sounds as good as any 10 I've ever heard and the dual 4 ohm vc's make it perfect to bridge most two channel amps.
- These are the best shallow mount subs I have ever built a system with clean and crisp base.
- Quite certainly the best subwoofer I have ever owned and the slim design meant it could be mounted entirely behind the trim panel in the cargo area. Very impressed overall.

JL Audio 10TW3-D4 Shallow-mount 10
- Hooked uo to soundstream nano 5 channel with 4 6.5 polk audio marine speakers. Sounds great.
- I have it hooked up to a mono block 500 watt alpine which pushes 300w at 4 ohm,so it's just enough for the sub to handle.
- Works well with the receiver and shows good performance.
- I immediately connected it to the receiver and was delighted with this sound. I am very pleased with this purchase.
- The connection was cheap and fragile in this subwoofer.
