JBL GT120 Subwoofers

JBL GT120 Subwoofers 

DESCRIPTION

JBL knows that everybody has different tastes in bass — that's why they designed GTO Series subwoofers to work great in sealed, vented, or bandpass enclosures. JBL packed over a half century of speaker-building experience into creating these GTO subs, so you can hear bass the way you like it!

The GT120 12" subwoofer boasts a polypropylene cone that's lightweight and ultra-efficient, so you won't need as much power to drive your low notes. But if you like to crank it up, the butyl rubber surround, dual 40-ounce magnets, and progressive spider ensure that this woofer won't bottom out when the going gets tough.

Model Reviewed: GT120

Strength:

Excellent efficiency, does more with less power.

Weakness:

Don't like terminal mounting tabs. Would have preferred a mounting post or other more robust wire attachment points.

Chose this sub over a few others due to its high sensitivity, 93db. As compared to the JL sub of the same size (88db) this sub will go almost four times as loud with the same power! I am using a small alpine amp (60W x 2) bridged into the sub, and get deep satisfying base. The sub enclosure is sealed, 1ft3, and stuffed with fiberfill. Since I am only throwing a maximum of just over 200 watts at this sub, I cannot comment on the SPL achievable. However, the sub gives clean clear base for a variety of sources, from percussion to base guitars. I would recommend it.
