Although it's true that the Dayton Audio Designer Series DS175-8 is a nice looking and well thought-out 6-1/2" woofer, its ability to handle full rated power down to 40 Hz* without exceeding Xmax is very impressive!
Highlights
- Cosmetic frame with low profile lip, designed for front mounting—no countersinking required!
- Coated paper cone, half roll rubber surround for durability and accurate reproduction
- Optimized to yield a low 3 dB down point and high potential output in a reasonably sized cabinet
- Smooth frequency response and linear roll-off simplify filter design, guaranteeing good results with off-the-shelf crossovers
- Vented pole piece for minimized power compression and maximized reliability
- Generous Xmax capability encourages use of moderate bass boost to tailor the response
- Retains the same "family look" as the popular Dayton Audio DVC Series subwoofers and passive radiators
