DS18 3" PRO Aluminum Super Bullet Tweeter 120W RMS

DS18 PRO-TW220B is a pair of 3-inch aluminum super bullet tweeters built to deliver extremely loud, ultra-clear high frequencies with a 104 dB sensitivity and a built-in crossover.

These DS18 PRO-TW220B super tweeters are engineered to extend the upper range of car and marine audio systems, adding sheen, air, and improved detail to vocals and instruments. Each tweeter combines a high-strength aluminum diaphragm and frame with a ferrite motor and an integrated capacitor filter, rated at 120 watts RMS and 240 watts peak at 4 ohms. The result is pronounced presence in the top octaves without demanding complex external crossovers.

How will the PRO-TW220B change the sound of my audio system?

Adding the DS18 super tweeters introduces clearer, more defined high frequencies that stock systems often miss. They reproduce subtle harmonics and air, making cymbals, strings, and vocal sibilance more distinct while improving overall soundstage clarity.

• Extends high-frequency response for added detail and shimmer
• 104 dB sensitivity for punchy output even at low amplifier settings
• Aluminum diaphragm yields crisp, bright transient response
• Built-in capacitor crossover protects against low-frequency drive

Can these tweeters handle high power and daily use?

The PRO-TW220B is rated for 120 watts RMS and 240 watts peak per tweeter, so they’re designed to handle sustained playback at higher volumes. The ferrite motor and robust aluminum construction improve thermal handling and mechanical longevity under normal listening conditions.

• 120W RMS rating for consistent performance
• 240W peak capacity for dynamic headroom
• Durable aluminum frame resists deformation and vibration
• Integrated capacitor filter reduces risk of damaging low-frequency content

How are these tweeters installed and integrated with my system?

Installation is straightforward: mount the bullet housings in desired locations, wire to your speaker outputs or amplifier channels, and rely on the internal crossover to block low frequencies. Their compact 3-inch profile and mounting hardware make placement flexible—dash, A-pillars, sail panels, or custom pods all work well.

• 3-inch bullet housing fits tight spaces and custom pods
• Integrated capacitor simplifies wiring—no external crossover required
• Mounting hardware included for flush or angled installs
• Pair configuration preserves stereo imaging and balance

What tonal character should I expect from the aluminum diaphragm?

Aluminum diaphragms deliver a bright, articulate top end with fast transient response, highlighting overtones and micro-details. If you prefer a forward, lively high-frequency presentation that cuts through busy mixes, aluminum is a strong choice.

• Bright, airy highs that enhance presence
• Quick transient attack for crisp percussion and strings
• Light diaphragm mass improves efficiency and detail retrieval
• Pairing with proper midrange drivers prevents harshness

Who is this for: The DS18 PRO-TW220B is ideal for car and marine audio enthusiasts who want to add pronounced high-frequency detail and presence without complex external crossovers. Choose these tweeters if you run aftermarket amplifiers or upgraded mid/high setups and want a compact, powerful solution to reveal the missing top-end in music and soundtracks.
