Product Overview

Description

The PRO-TWZ2 is a 3.8" super bullet compression tweeter sold as a pair, built around a 1" aluminum voice coil on a Kapton former with an aluminum diaphragm and a built-in 4.7uF bass blocker. Rated 120W program and 240W peak per tweeter at 4 ohms with 106dB sensitivity, it covers 2kHz to 20kHz and suits pro-audio and car-audio builds that need clean, loud highs. Black machined aluminum body and faceplate.

Product Overview

DS18’s PRO-TWZ2 delivers razor-sharp treble for car and pro-audio systems. The aluminum diaphragm and CCAW winding keep the highs clean at volume, the Kapton former handles the heat, and the bass blocker adds low-frequency protection for the driver; DS18 recommends a 3kHz high-pass crossover. Compact 2.2" overall depth with a 2.83" cutout.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

RMS vs. MAX power — which number do I actually care about?

RMS is what your gear handles continuously; MAX is the short burst it can survive without complaint. Match your amplifier's RMS output to your speakers' RMS rating — sizing off the MAX number is how magic smoke gets released.

What does the IP65 rating on DS18 marine gear actually mean?

It's dust-tight and rated against low-pressure water jets from any direction — built for spray, rain, and the occasional wave over the bow, not for full submersion. If something's going somewhere it could sit underwater, that's a different conversation entirely.

How do I match an amplifier to my speakers without guessing?

Add up the RMS rating of everything the amp will power, and pick an amp whose RMS output (at your speakers' impedance — usually 4-ohm) lands close to that total. Undersized is thin sound; wildly oversized is a fast way to blow a voice coil.

Can I mix marine-grade gear into a standard car audio setup, or the reverse?

You can run marine-grade gear in a car — it's just over-built for that environment, no downside besides cost. Running non-weatherproof car audio gear in an open UTV or boat is the direction that causes problems.

What gauge wiring kit do I need?

It scales with your amp's power draw and the length of the run — DS18's OFC kits come in 4-gauge and 8-gauge for a reason. Undersized wiring on a high-draw system is a voltage-drop and heat problem waiting to happen; when in doubt, size up.
