On a first-name basis with the God of Thunder

Even the first glance at the JL Audio Gotham® v2 suggests that something special is about to happen – and the first notes from the two powerful 13.5-inch woofers (34.5 centimeters) confirm beyond a doubt that the God of Thunder himself must be present. Yet power and subtlety are always in perfect balance: the appeal of the JL Audio Gotham® v2 lies as much in its immense capability as in its ability to convey even the most subtle nuances. The JL Audio Gotham® v2 offers an unadulterated reproduction that can only be achieved by a system that remains in complete control at all times.

The JL Audio Gotham® v2 is simply overwhelming.

The high-gloss black or white (available at an extra charge) finish of the JL Audio Gotham® v2 is a perfect example of JL Audio's craftsmanship – and how the Americans cater to the wishes of their customers who are looking for curated, unique, and custom-optimized products. The vault-like fiberglass composite enclosure of the Gotham® v2 is handcrafted throughout and complemented by luxurious aluminum and stainless steel accents. Together with the truly flawless paint finish, this ensures an appearance that fits even the most sophisticated interiors and integrates seamlessly.

A full range of signal processing functions is easily accessible on the top of the Gotham. These include a highly flexible low-pass filter, variable phase, switchable polarity, E.L.F. trim, and our powerful digital automatic room optimization system (D.A.R.O.). A calibrated microphone is included for the D.A.R.O. system. Input connections are made via unbalanced RCA jacks or balanced Neutrik® combo XLR/TRS jacks. Also included is an XLR output for connecting a second Gotham® v2 as a slave device. The Gotham® v2's massive switching amplifier delivers 4,500 watts of continuous power to take full advantage of the two drivers' peak-to-peak excursion of a full ten centimeters (!). This ensures that the Gotham remains unfazed and can play any material without distortion that would cause other subwoofers to clip, shut down, or even fail.

The JL Audio Gotham® v2 reveals a whole new world of subwoofer performance – and that is no marketing fluff. It opens up a new dimension of experience for its owner, one so magical that listening to smaller subwoofers will forever feel like a compromise.
