Midrange Bullet Speaker for Car Audio

The DS18 PRO-X698BM is a 6x9-inch midrange loudspeaker built for car audio systems. It handles 275 watts RMS and 550 watts peak power with an 8-ohm impedance and 98 dB sensitivity. A 1.5-inch CCAR voice coil and 27 oz ferrite magnet drive a non-pressed paper cone with cloth edge. The red steel basket and aluminum bullet complete the motor structure.

Upgrade from Factory or Weak Midrange

This speaker replaces thin-sounding factory drivers or older midrange units that distort at moderate volume. The jump is worth it when you need clean output from 106 Hz to 17 kHz with high sensitivity for efficient amplifier use. It suits builds focused on vocal clarity and instrument detail rather than sub-bass extension. The bullet phase plug helps control dispersion at higher frequencies.

Check Mounting Space and Amplifier Match

Verify the baffle cut-out of 8.62 by 5.91 inches and mounting depth of 3.35 inches fit your door or panel. Ensure your amplifier can deliver clean power into an 8-ohm load at the required RMS level. The unit weighs 5.99 pounds and ships in an 11 by 8.5 by 6-inch box. Confirm wiring polarity and crossover points suit a dedicated midrange role.
