CP212-W0v3 Dual 12W0v3 BassWedge Enclosed Subwoofer System, Ported, Dark Gray Carpet (600 W, 2 Ω)
A ready-to-install dual subwoofer system built around two 12W0v3-4 drivers in a slot-ported BassWedge enclosure. Ships wired, loaded and ready to connect via a push-button terminal.
The slot-port runs along the bottom of the enclosure and fires on the same plane as the woofers, delivering strong extension and smooth response. The port mouth is flared to minimise airflow noise.
The BassWedge shape features extended sides so the unit can be positioned with the woofers firing outward or straight down, off the vehicle floor. It works equally well in forward or rear-firing installations, giving flexibility to tune the enclosure's loading in your vehicle.
- Finish: dark grey, high-grade automotive carpet with "JL AUDIO" embroidery on the top edge and "Slot-Ported BassWedge" embroidered on the port mouth
- Construction: MDF
- Recommended amplifier power: 150–600W
- Nominal impedance: 2 Ω

About the JL Audio CP212W0v3
From our tech experts at CEN
A JL Audio 12 inch subwoofer supplied in a BassWedge ported enclosure, handling 600w RMS. The box is built to the driver’s specification rather than to fit a shelf.
Who it suits
Drivers who want the result without commissioning a custom build. Ported enclosures play louder and dig deeper for the same power, at the cost of size.
Our tech experts advise
Match the amplifier to the enclosure’s rating rather than the driver’s headline figure, and secure the box properly: an unrestrained enclosure is dangerous in a crash. 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: How many subwoofers are in the CP212-W0v3?
A: Two. It is loaded with two 12 inch 12W0v3-4 subwoofers in a slot-ported BassWedge enclosure, wired to a 2 ohm nominal load.
Q: How big is the CP212-W0v3?
A: It measures 797 mm wide, 386 mm high and 516 mm deep, with a 400 mm top surface depth, and weighs 27.35 kg.
Q: Does the CP212-W0v3 come ready to install?
A: Yes. It is shipped wired, loaded and ready to connect via a push-button terminal, so it only needs connecting to a suitable amplifier.
