Model-Specific Compatibility Guide

The EXCL Series offers tailored audio solutions for:

Premium Construction and Materials

Acoustic perfection begins with 3/4" Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF), the gold standard in subwoofer enclosure construction. MDF's density and stability reduce vibration for cleaner, more accurate bass. The 3/4" thickness is rigid enough to handle the harshest environments and maintain the perfect internal volume needed for peak performance.

Vinyl and Carpet Finish Options

Your subwoofer's looks matter as much as its performance. The EXCL Series comes with premium finish options:

• Premium Vinyl: Multiple textures and colors that match your interior perfectly
• Professional-Grade Carpet: Natural blend with your vehicle's existing carpet

Our vinyl finishing involves careful heat application and stretching to create a wrinkle-free, professional look that lasts. The EXCL-JTBASS1 features an exquisite combination of leather and carpeting that matches every Jeep Gladiator's interior perfectly.
