DS18 PRO-NS8 8" Pro Audio Mid-Range Loudspeaker 400W 4-Ohm

The DS18 PRO-NS8 (4-ohm) is an 8" pro-audio mid-range built to get loud and stay clear — the midrange muscle behind a bagger fairing, a side-by-side sound bar, or a car-audio pro build. An ultra-slim neodymium magnet keeps the mounting depth to just 2.48", so this big 8" cone fits where a deep ferrite motor never could.

Why we recommend it

The PRO series is DS18's loud-and-proud line — high volume with real sound quality at a fair price. This 4-ohm NS8 handles 200 watts RMS (400 watts max) and hits a strong 96dB sensitivity, so it plays loud on a single 4-ohm channel, and the 97Hz–12kHz range delivers full, present midrange. The slim neo motor makes the 8" size surprisingly easy to fit.

Fitment & install notes

Sold individually (single speaker). Shallow 2.48" mounting depth, 7.12" cutout. 4-ohm — easy to drive from most amplifiers. Run a high-pass crossover around 160Hz and pair with a mid-range-friendly amp for the cleanest output.
