DS18 PRO-DKN175WG 1" Compression Driver with 3.5" x 4.4" Waveguide Horn, Neodymium

The DS18 PRO-DKN175WG is a 1-inch throat compression driver paired with a 3.5" x 4.4" cast aluminum waveguide horn. It is built for pro audio, DJ and PA systems, and car audio SPL builds that need loud, clear high-frequency output. A neodymium magnet motor keeps the weight down, and the driver is rated at 105dB sensitivity with the horn.

Key Features:

• Power handling: 90W AES, 180W program and 360W peak at 8 ohms
• Diaphragm and voice coil: 1.75" (44.4mm) titanium voice coil with a KSV former and CCAW winding, for crisp, detailed highs
• Neodymium magnet motor: 11.6 oz magnet and a 4" (102mm) motor diameter
• Frequency response: 1.5kHz to 20kHz, with a recommended 2kHz high-pass crossover
• Sensitivity: 105dB (1W/1m) with the horn
• Waveguide horn: 3.5" x 4.4" (89 x 111mm) cast aluminum body with a 1" (25.4mm) throat and satin black finish
• Wide coverage: 140° horizontal by 15° vertical dispersion
• Construction: ABS voice coil cover

Specifications:

• Overall depth: 6.5" (165.4mm)
• Mounting depth: 6.3" (160.4mm)
• Mounting hole cut-out: 1" x 4" (25.4 x 101.6mm)
• Nominal impedance: 8 ohms

A proper crossover is recommended to protect the diaphragm. This horn and compression driver gives high-output highs that cut through ambient noise and heavy bass in loud sound systems.
