BassPro Series Powered 8" (200mm) Subwoofer System
Product Overview
JBL's latest powered subwoofer system, the BassPro 8, delivers big output in a small package. This jaw-dropping subwoofer measures less than a cubic foot and provides an impactful performance. Inside the slot-port enclosure is a system tuned with a 100 watts RMS Class D amplifier and an 8-inch (200mm) subwoofer. The compact BassPro 8 is designed to provide tight, deep bass in any car audio system. The subwoofer and amplifier have been engineered as a system to ensure great distortion-free bass even at high output levels. The rigid, lightweight polypropylene woofer cone supplies the signature punch and clarity of JBL bass. For enhanced low-frequency response, the bass EQ control offers up to a 9dB boost. Featuring the legendary JBL logo on the dust cap and oversized protection bars, the BassPro 8 is a robust bass system ready for demanding use.

Features and Benefits
JBL BassPro 8 Slot-Port Enclosure
The JBL BassPro 8's slot-port enclosure is engineered and tuned to the optimal frequency by the JBL engineering team. The enclosure material is MDF (medium-density fiberboard) to minimize resonances and unwanted ringing. The lightweight yet stiff polypropylene woofer cone provides clean reproduction and superior durability, suitable for both easy listening and high-volume venues.
Built-in Class D 100 watts RMS amplifier
The built-in amplifier in the JBL subwoofer system provides electronics that are matched and optimized for the woofer characteristics and enclosure acoustics. Class D operation ensures the amplifier runs cooler and draws less current from the vehicle's electrical system.
JBL RBC Wired Remote
The optional JBL RBC Wired Remote is easy to install and can be mounted for convenient volume adjustment from the driver's seat. It is sold separately on the JBL website.
Oversized Protection Bars
The oversized protection bars not only project a "serious car audio enthusiast" statement but also serve the important function of protecting the speaker from accidental damage.
Harman Standard Reliability Testing
JBL speakers undergo a rigorous testing process designed to push them to their limits. This includes exposure to extreme temperatures (freezing and baking), vibration testing, high-intensity light exposure, and continuous full-power operation for extended periods.
JBL at an Affordable Price
This product represents JBL's commitment to providing the exciting sound and quality that has captivated audio enthusiasts for over 70 years, making great audio accessible.
