DS18 PRO-GM6.4 Loudspeaker - 6.5", Midrange, Black Steel Basket, 480W Max, 140W RMS, 4 Ohms - Premium Quality Audio Door Speakers for Car or Truck Stereo Sound System (1 Speaker)

These are replacing some 100 watt rms soundstream bullet cone mid drivers.....I was happy with them but I rolled the suv that they were in and it broke one of the pair....I didn't realize it when I pulled the it out of the door( must've broke one of the speaker's leads to the voice coil and caused an open.......anyhoo...I went to install it into my 74 c10 stepside and it didn't work...so I ordered 2 of the ds18 mid drivers (only 1 per order) at 27.90 each....they work well in the frequency range they are designed for....they are loud and clear at the 60 watts I am pumping into them....they cross over at 120 hz and I have the at a -8 dB slope on my pioneer head unit....they can handle about 2x more power than what I am feeding them rite now...so there is room for expansion when I get a more powerful amp.....I must say that so far I am way happy with them at the measly 60 watts I have them at now....in my single cab, relatively small interior I can hear them loud and clear and they sound much better than any other speaker that I have purchased over the years..... i am really impressed with the vocal clarity too....i can hear the lyrics in the music i listen to almost word for word....I listen almost exclusively lyrics to 90's-2000's progressive rock and heavy metal....Tool, Disturbed, RATM, Chevelle, Nickleback, Soundgarden....etc....I also might add that I play drums in a old man bar band type band, so. I like to. Hear the kick Drum loud and clear(and feel it pound) and the rest of the drums too...these speakers do not disappoint!!! Vocals and crunchy distorted guitar sound good with.out making the speakers sound overdriven at all...i'm still playing a bit with the levels but so far the are the loudest speakers in the truck!!! In fact i can't really balance the rest of tje system to my liking yet...( ordered a better 12 inch sub to handle more power fro. My cadence 800 watt 1 ohm sub amp cuz the kicker cvr starts to smell like burning voice coils real bad at just 25 % volume. Rite about where i start to like the volume level....its clear and loud from the 4 channel amp but the sub starts cookin' so I have turn turn it way down to keep from popping the sub just yet...will wait till new sub comes b4 I start getting sound levels to my preferred settings....cuz I don't wanna go with out for couple days with no tunes on my commute to work...it's also probably worth mentioning that I had one pair the 4" drivers ( no 2 ways with tweeters built in) just dedicated 4 inch mid drivers in the back of my 99 Isuzu rodeo that could handle 100 watts rms ...those were my first pair of Ds 18's!I had them wired in parallel with another set of 4 ohm off brand type budget speakers...the 120 watt 4 channel amp was seeing a 2 ohm load from the back four speakers and a 4 ohm load from the front component soundstream bullet mid 6" and 2 inch horn setup in the front doors..100watts / channel at 2 ohms and like 60 at 4 ohms....the little 100 watt 4" zpeakers iHad above the lift gate were ds18s !! That's what made up my mind to purchase the 6.5's i got..I'm definetly buying a decent ds 18 components package for the front doors as soon as I can justify the expense....then a more powerful 4 channel ds 18 amp to handle the potential wattage of the speakers as $ and desire for loudTunes becomes more important....there always seems to be room for improvent...i will stay with the ds18 boys cuz really really do like the ds18 product line!! The way I figure it the price is very reasonable for the sound quality that u get fron these ds18 guys!! I will probably never go with another brand of speakers!! Ds 18 is comparable in sound quality and and much better in price range than any other speaker brand I have heard or bought over the years!!! And I have heard and bought alot of speakers in my day (53 years old) and stiil rockin!! I highly recommend them to anybody!! I am a ds 18 man from now on....I will probably even buy one of their 4 channel amps too when it is time to upgrade to more power....cuz I like it loud!!! ....

Man these babies sound great for just being powered by the head unit only. Noticed the difference as soon as I plugged them in and boy do they sound better than my cheap pioneer speakers I kept. My only gripe is, I wish they came with some wire to connect them with, but other than that, it's worth the price I paid for it. For my 06 Toyota Tundra, the speaker kinda fits the factory speaker adapter, but needs careful adjusting to get all 4 screws in. Can't wait to hear them when I get a 4 channel amp.

It's a decent mid range definitely lacking on the mid bass used for rear fill in my jeep. They definitely get loud and seem clear just lacking below the 90 htz range.

They sound amazing!!! The sound clarity and quality is great. The install for all of my speakers took about an hour.

Speaker worked very well loud and clear

Sounds great but the box it came in was all smashed and torn the speaker fell out and was floating in the bag therefore the speaker was bent but I don’t think it ruined the sound quality

great for oem replacement

These were good drop in replacements for the rear speakers in my 1996 Toyota Celica convertible.
