With an intoxicating combination of texture, tightness, dynamics and extension, Gotham v2’s are ideal as a complement to fine stereo loudspeakers, or as the low-frequency foundations in a top-tier home theater.

The Gotham® v2’s massive fiberglass-composite enclosure is hand-finished in luxurious gloss-black and highlighted by machined aluminum and stainless steel accents. The look and feel is elegant and spectacular at the same time. More importantly, this beautiful cabinet houses a pair of JL Audio’s highest-technology subwoofer drivers, each with over four inches of peak-to-peak excursion capability. The Gotham® v2 amplifier offers a mind-numbing 4,500 watts of clean, controlled power, while a completely new signal processing system employs DSP for all functions. This includes a more powerful, digital version of our automatic room optimization technology, with 18 bands of response correction to flawlessly integrate the Gotham® v2 into your room’s acoustics.

Listening to a Gotham® v2 reveals an entirely new dimension of subwoofer performance… a dimension so satisfying that listening to lesser subwoofers will forever become an act of compromise.

Driver Technologies:

OverRoll Surround The OverRoll surround spans over the driver’s mounting flange, utilizing available diameter wasted in conventional speakers. This allows the use of the wider roll necessary to control high-excursions without sacrificing precious cone area.

This assembly technique ensures proper surround geometry in the assembled speaker for better excursion control and dynamic voice coil alignment. Plateau-Reinforced Spider Attachment A derivative of JL Audio’s VRC  technology, this bulletproof suspension attachment relieves stress from the spider material at high-excursions for enhanced reliability.

Radially Cross-Drilled Pole Piece This innovative venting system greatly enhances thermal dissipation and power handling by directing air flow onto the voice coil former, working in conjunction with the Elevated Frame technology.
