High-level inputs mean it works with a factory head unit as well as aftermarket stereos with RCA outputs. The BassPro 12 uses JBL's patented Slipstream port technology to produce deep, turbulence-free bass — solving a common problem found in traditional ported enclosures.
The built-in Class D amplifier keeps the unit compact without sacrificing output. The included JBL RBC wired remote lets you adjust bass volume from the driver's seat without accessing the boot.

About the JBL BassPro 12
From our tech experts at CEN
A powered subwoofer with the amplifier built in, 12 inch, 150w RMS.
Who it suits
Drivers who want more low end without building a system around it — one unit, one power feed, no separate amplifier to hide.
Our tech experts advise
It still needs a fused feed from the battery and a signal source, and the level and crossover want setting against your existing speakers so it fills in underneath rather than announcing itself. Installation is priced per vehicle, so get in touch with your make, model and year and we will confirm what it needs. See car audio installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need an amplifier for this subwoofer?
A: Yes, unless it is an active (powered) subwoofer with a built-in amplifier. Passive subwoofers need an external amplifier matched to the RMS power and impedance shown in the Specification tab.
Q: What does RMS power mean?
A: RMS is the continuous power a subwoofer can handle, and it is the number that matters when matching an amplifier. Peak or max figures describe short bursts only. Match your amplifier output to the RMS rating in the Specification tab.
Q: Can CEN build or supply an enclosure and fit everything?
A: Yes. CEN supplies enclosures and offers professional installation from our Nottingham premises, including amplifier wiring. Contact us to discuss your build.
Q: Does the JBL BassPro 12 need a separate amplifier?
A: No. It has a built-in Class D amplifier rated at 150 W RMS (450 W max), so it only needs power, earth, a turn-on signal and an audio input.
Q: Can the BassPro 12 connect to a factory stereo?
A: Yes. It accepts high-level speaker inputs (0.35 to 10 V) as well as low-level RCA inputs (0.065 to 2 V), and a high-level input wiring harness is included.
Q: What comes in the box with the JBL BassPro 12?
A: The powered subwoofer enclosure, a high-level input wiring harness and the bass volume remote control.
