The new Fathom\u00ae IWS systems change everything, offering true stand-alone JL Audio subwoofer performance that fits into a standard 2 x 4 stud space. <\/p>\n<p>More important than the visual disappearing act, is their ability to disappear sonically, blending seamlessly with your mains to create a true audiophile listening experience. And, lest you think these are polite wallflowers&#8230; up to 2 kilowatts of controlled power driving state-of-the-art 13.5-inch subwoofers make sure that serious impact and extension are handled with complete authority and spine-tingling accuracy. <\/p>\n<p>We wouldn\u2019t call them Fathoms, if they didn\u2019t earn the name. <\/p>\n<p>Fathom\u00ae IWS Systems Multiple subwoofers deliver improved frequency response over a larger seating area, compared to a single subwoofer solution. For this reason, we strongly encourage that you consider the Fathom\u00ae IWS System Two&#8230; its twin subwoofer cabinets driven by the 2kW version of the IWS amplifier will result in greater output and significantly improved bass quality for multiple listeners. <\/p>\n<p>Patented, Low-Profile Subwoofer Driver<br \/>\nAt only 2.5-inches deep and 1.5 inches of peak-to-peak excursion capability, the Fathom\u00ae IWS driver is an engineering marvel. Its ingenious, and patented, \u2018concentric tube\u2019 suspension design places the motor structure further forward than conventional designs while creating the necessary clearance for a long-excursion system. \u2022 DMA-optimized, low-distortion motor system<br \/>\n\u2022 7-inch diameter voice coil<br \/>\n\u2022 Mica-filled polypropylene cone \/ rubber surround<br \/>\n\u2022 Cast-aluminum basket<br \/>\n\u2022 Built in Miramar, FL, USA<br \/>\nThin-Wall Enclosure Construction with Extensive Bracing<br \/>\nThe simple black exterior of the IWS enclosure conceals a fiendishly complex internal structure aimed at maximizing internal enclosure volume while maintaining rigidity and controlling resonance. Over twenty individual CNC-cut parts are assembled by expert craftsmen in our Miramar, FL factory to make each IWS enclosure. <\/p>\n<p>Engineered Mounting System &#038; Wire Routing<br \/>\nThe success of an in-wall system is highly dependent on the ability of its mounting system to create a solid, rattle-free installation. The patent-pending IWS mounting system uses steel brackets with rubber-isolated, machined cup and peg hardware to effectively isolate the enclosure from the studs and wall surfaces.<br \/>\nA vertical speaker wiring conduit is integrated into the enclosure to feed the front-mounted speaker terminals. These are accessible by removing the grille for troubleshooting, testing or A.R.O. pre-calibration of remote-mounted IWS amplifiers. <\/p>\n<p>Paintable Wall-Grille<br \/>\nThe sturdy and attractive steel mesh grille has been carefully engineered to mount to the wall surface and seal to the front surface of the enclosure, while maintaining mechanical isolation to prevent rattles. Can be painted to match the wall color. <\/p>\n<p>Amplifier Technology:<br \/>\nInside the spectacular cast and extruded aluminum chassis lies an uncommonly powerful and sophisticated switching amplifier\/ processor engineered specifically for each IWS system. <\/p>\n<p>The full suite of Fathom\u00ae signal processing features is on-board, including our exclusive A.R.O. (automatic room optimization) system. Using the included laboratory-grade microphone, the A.R.O. system measures the response of the Fathom\u00ae IWS system in the listening space, analyzes it and automatically corrects it with a powerful equalizer for optimal bass quality.<br \/>\n\u00bb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sealed enclosure with one (1) 13.5<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10331,"template":"","meta":[],"pwb-brand":[133],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[1034],"product_tag":[545],"class_list":["post-7187","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","pwb-brand-jl-audio","product_cat-subwoofers","product_tag-jl-audio","first","onbackorder","sale","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"brands":[{"id":133,"name":"JL AUDIO","slug":"jl-audio"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/7187","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10331"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7187"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"pwb-brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pwb-brand?post=7187"},{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=7187"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=7187"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=7187"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
