JBL Synthesis SSW-2

Dual 12” (300mm) Passive Subwoofer

The SSW-2 is a custom in-room / built-in subwoofer designed to complement any of the Synthesis Custom Loudspeakers (SCL Series). It features dual 12-inch (300mm) high-excursion cast-frame woofers in a heavily-braced, ported enclosure constructed from 1-inch MDF throughout, The SSW-2 delivers exceptional performance for custom installations in medium to large rooms. 

The SSW-2 can be oriented vertically or horizontally to fit into corners, or below projection screens and video displays.

Newly developed transducers feature fully-vented cast aluminum frames with more mass for greater strength and higher heat conduction to assist in driver cooling. Enhanced motor venting delivers increased output, lower distortion, improved airflow, reduced turbulence and greater cooling. Massive four-inch voice coils and coated cellulose pulp fiber-composite cones combine with over-sized SBR rubber surrounds for greater excursion, enhanced moving-mass control, and improved longevity under high-stress usage. 

The SSW-2 sub’s enclosure is solidly constructed with 1-inch thick cabinet walls and extensive internal bracing throughout. Enclosure tuning is via dual front-firing Slipstream™ ports, while connectivity is provided via a set of gold-plated, spring-loaded binding posts located on the lower back panel. The cabinet is finished in matte black and includes a black cloth grille with pressure relief venting on two sides to reduce any unwanted noise. The SSW-2’s dimensions (33” H x 19” W x 14.7” D) allow it to be installed either freestanding or built-in, and oriented horizontally or vertically in corners, or behind or underneath a screen.

With nearly 1,700W RMS power handling, the sub is designed to easily handle the full power output of two bridged channels from a JBL Synthesis SDA-4600 power amplifier.
