Description
The DS18 6PRO300MB-8 is a 6.5-inch, 8-ohm mid-bass loudspeaker designed for high-output car audio systems. It handles 150W RMS (300W max) and covers 80 Hz–6 kHz for punchy mid-bass with clear articulation.
- Nominal Diameter: 6.5" / 165mm — standard cutout size for many 6.5" door and kick-panel installations.
- Impedance: 8 Ohm — moderate load that pairs well with a wide range of amplifiers and helps manage heat.
- RMS Power Handling: 150W — continuous power rating indicating how much signal the driver can sustain reliably with proper cooling and crossover.
- Maximum Power Handling: 300W — peak capability for short-term musical transients.
- Sensitivity: 96 dB (1W/1m) — higher efficiency means louder playback from a given amp power in a car cabin.
- Frequency Response: 80 Hz–6 kHz — covers deep mid-bass through upper midrange for a cohesive front stage.
- Recommended High-Pass Crossover: 100 Hz — recommended filter point to protect the woofer and integrate with treble components.
- Voice Coil: 1.5" (38.1mm) Kapton former, CCAW winding — robust coil design handles power with thermal stability.
- Materials: Cone Paper; Dust Cap Paper; Surround Cloth; Basket Steel; Magnet Ferrite — durable, non-metallic voice-coil assembly with a solid magnet structure.
- Mechanical Dimensions: Overall diameter 6.5" (166mm); Front-mount cutout 5.6" (143mm); Mounting Depth 2.8" (73mm); Depth 3.1" (79mm).
- Weight: 5 lb per unit.
- Configuration: Sold as Single or Pair; Grill Included: No.
- Thiele–Small Parameters: Vas 3.97L; Fs 120 Hz; Qms 1.76; Qes 0.49; Qts 0.38; Mms 10.85 g; Cms 0.16 mm/N; Bl 9.77; Le 0.2 mH; Sd 130.7 cm2; Re 5.7 Ω.
In a multi-way front-stage, the 6PRO300MB-8 excels in door or kick-panel mounting where its compact depth and 8-ohm design enable efficient pairing with midrange/tweeter components. Its 96 dB sensitivity helps you achieve loud mid-bass with modest amplifier power, while the 80 Hz lower limit provides solid bass presence within its intended range—great for premium, punchy mid-bass performance in a focused audio build.
