Featuring a high-temperature 1.5” CCAW voice coil and a robust ferrite magnet, it offers superior durability and a wide tonal range. Perfect for audiophiles seeking concert-quality sound and a powerful upgrade from factory speakers. ## Description During the focused R&D period of perfecting the PRO-EXL line, DS18 identified the opportunity to spawn off another line since there was a division amongst competition audiophiles and concert/"voceteo" audiophiles. Therefore, DS18 created the PRO audio line, which features a wide variety of midranges that produce concert-like sounds that will knock the wind out of you! Review: We like it LOUD isn't just a nifty catchphrase. - This thing is super clear and stupid loud. I bought it to replace an Audio Legion bullet style 6.5. I really liked that this DS18 has a much higher frequency range than the 6k the Legion had. I will say the Audio Legion with its bullet tweeter is a little more clear and focused in certain frequencies, but in terms of overall sound and power handling, this thing has it whooped by a considerable margin. They do make this with a bullet tweeter also, so if you want that type of focused awsomeness, buy that one. The Audio Legion only topped at 100 watts and had great sound and I wanted to see just how accurate that was since I have an extra pair laying around. Fyi, Audio Legion was under-rated for sure. This DS18 PRO is in a whole different game entirely though!! Loud is an understatement. I have it crossed over at 140hz and 12db down paired with some Alpine-S 6.5 and a couple Focal 6.5 along with a bunch of other stuff and this fills in PERFECTLY!! Make sure you tune it properly off your amp and DSP if you have one, otherwise it may overpower your other speakers. Or, just replace them all with these and really piss off your eardrums. Buy this style for the frequency range or get the bullet style for the focused clarity. Either way, you win. Oh, be careful on your mounting depth because these aint no chinsy speaker and need some room behind your panels. Review: Beats my expectatiins - These speakers totally out performs my Jvc cs-j620 which is rated for 50 watt rms and 300 watt max. I was running all 4 doors with the jvc. First thing i noticed was the magnet size which was 3 times bigger plus at 4 pounds i kind of new it would be better. I never expected the ds-18 to be so much more. Im only running them off my deck which is around 50 watts a channel. They are so much more clearer and highs are crisp. So i put them on my rear doors and now the sound is unbalanced. You can literally hear all the sound from the back speakers. Looks like I will be changing my front speakers as well but by doing this I know I'll have to upgrade my sub which is only a 12" running off a 200 watt rms amp. ## Features - MIDRANGE THAT HANDLES IT ALL - A mid-range driver that can answer the call to handle the most significant part of the audible sound spectrum.

Im putting them on the doors** A: I would not, unless if youre' crossing them over for more power. I would use the crossover filter on the amp, as the bass blockers(Capacitors) will fux with ohm load. I have 8 of these, I also run 4 tweeters at the end of each channel, those have the built in bass remover, cap, on it. if I could run each speaker to it's own channel(I would need 5 4 channel amps), I wouldnt use them at all. **Q: I’m putting these in. 2000 road glide will they sound good** A: They are very Loud **Q: What adapter would these need for a 2009 Tahoe** A: No difference **Q: Are these waterproof and ok for motorcycles?** A: No, not waterproof. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We like it LOUD isn't just a nifty catchphrase. *by J***N on May 30, 2023* This thing is super clear and stupid loud.
