DS Speakers are the best value for serious, drop-in upgrades in your doors. The woofers bear a polypropylene cone, UV-treated ribbed surround, enduring voice coil, and an interior-pleasing fresh look. The half-inch tweeters take the performance cues of higher-end coaxials, using a super-strong neodymium magnet and PEI (polyether imide) dome for louder, better-sounding highs.

The DS Series comes in eight different sizes, including the new DS650 with 6.5-inch midrange drivers. DS Coaxials fit any speaker cutout, starting from the 3.5-inch DS350 up to a handy 6 x 8 DS680 if your ride requires them. The 6 x 9 offering is actually the thrashin' DS6930 3-way system which mixes in an additional 2-inch mid.

Polypropylene cone with UV-treated ribbed surround.

CIMP (Curvilinear Injection-Molded Polypropylene Woofer Cones)
A high performance composite, which remains rigid, minimizes cone flex and lowers harmonic distortion. The CIMP consists of a one-piece, injection-molded polypropylene material that moves as a piston, exhibiting power and control.

Enhanced BAM (Basket and Motor) Assembly
Utilizes a high strength steel basket, features a low-profile open design, and provides a solid foundation for the precision-aligned motor assembly.

Optimized Polyfoam Ribbed Surround Radius
This allows extended cone excursion for additional bass output and higher SPL, and couples the suspension into a conjoined linear-motion body.

High-Temp Polyimide Film Voice Coil Former
improves sonic and conductive properties, and prevents thermal-electrical meltdown.

PEN Dome Tweeter with Neodymium Magnet
Provides a smooth high frequency response with quick, detailed and spatially-correct imaging. PEN is an acronym for the space age material "biaxially oriented polypropylene naphthalate film"--your parents' tax dollars probably paid for its development, you might as well enjoy it.

High-Power Tinsel Lead Wires
These eliminate broken leads and power loss, due to the common use of "insufficient-gauge" lead wires.

Ferro-Fluid
Cooled tweeter voice-coil extends the high frequency transducer's life span.
