DS18’s NEW Digital LED Bullet Tweeters!

If you’ve been keeping up, you’ve seen the evolution of our crowd-favorite PRO-TW1L's and PRO-TW7L's into the PRO-TW1LD and PRO-TW7LD!
These full-on upgrades turn heads and deliver screaming highs that will make any sound system feel like a festival. So, if you’re building out your dream setup and want tweeters that will make it glow, let’s talk about why these deserve your attention.

Behind The Sound

PRO-TW1LD

The first time we wired up the PRO-TW1LD at HQ, we knew it was special. Even at half volume—crisp, crystal-clear top end that cut through the busy mix I use for testing. Then we fine-tuned it inside a sealed vehicle, and the treble was ridiculously clean. And when those digital lights kick on? Instant showstopper. Perfect for builds that need both performance and presence. Here’s a closer look at its specifications:

·         Size: 3.8" super bullet tweeter

·         Power Handling: 60W AES / 240W Peak

·         Impedance: 4 ohms

·         Sensitivity: 103dB

·         Frequency Range: 3.5K – 20KHz

·         Voice Coil: 1" aluminum on Kapton former

·         Magnet: Ferrite (8 oz)

·         Extras: Transparent polycarbonate body with digital LED lighting

·         Mount Depth: 1.57"

·         Sold In Pairs

PRO-TW7LD

Now, the PRO-TW7LD might be smaller, but it’s a beast in disguise. We’ve tested it in tight door panels, custom pods, even on motorcycles, and it never buckles. Thanks to its neodymium magnet, it’s fast and responsive, with an extra pop for vocals and snares. The PRO-TW7L works best in setups with tight space that don’t want to compromise on clarity. Its specifications include:

·         Size: 2.3" neodymium bullet tweeter

·         Power Handling: 50W AES / 200W Peak

·         Impedance: 4 ohms

·         Sensitivity: 102dB

·         Frequency Range: 4K – 20KHz

·         Voice Coil: 1" aluminum on Kapton former

·         Magnet: Lightweight Neodymium

·         Extras: Same LED setup, more compact body

·         Mount Depth: Adjustable 1.5–2.5"

·         Sold as single

What Sets The PRO-TWLD’s Apart

When it comes to performance, the differences between the PRO-TW1LD and PRO-TW7LD become obvious.

The PRO-TW1LD stands out for its loudness and depth, thanks to its broader range and lower punch. If you need clarity over bass-heavy beats in a full-size car audio setup, the PRO-TW1LD is the answer.

On the other hand, the PRO-TW7LD sacrifices some output for a more compact design. This makes it an excellent choice for builds where space and weight are crucial, like in motorcycle fairings or custom show builds.

Know Your Space

Installation is a critical aspect when choosing between these two models.

PRO-TW1LD

The PRO-TW1LD has a larger overall diameter, making it a more traditional fit for full-size car doors or speaker pods. Its size allows it to deliver powerful sound without compromising on quality.

PRO-TW7LD

In contrast, the PRO-TW7LD is a tiny titan. Its compact design allows it to fit into tighter installations or replace standard 2-inch tweeters with ease. This flexibility makes it a favorite for those looking to maximize sound quality in limited spaces.

LED Features & Control (Both Models)

Both the PRO-TW1LD and PRO-TW7LD come locked and loaded with controllable Digital LEDs, and the real magic happens when you pair them with DS18’s LC-DRM controller (sold separately).

Control via Mobile App

Control your entire LED setup wirelessly with DS18’s LC App (iOS/Android). Bluetooth 5.4 gives you 100+ ft of range—no matter if you’re in the cockpit, garage, or out by the water.

Serious Output

Push up to 180W/15A and run 8 LED channels in parallel—up to 1280 LEDs. Clean power, wide compatibility, zero nonsense.

Build Quality Breakdown

When it comes to build quality, both tweeters exhibit outstanding craftsmanship.

Common Features

Both models utilize transparent polycarbonate bodies, aluminum diaphragms, and CCA windings, ensuring durability and performance.

PRO-TW1LD

The PRO-TW1LD’s ferrite magnet adds weight but provides more thermal stability, making it ideal for high-power applications.

PRO-TW7LD

On the other hand, the PRO-TW7LD’s neodymium magnet is not only compact but also powerful, making it perfect for weight-sensitive builds without sacrificing audio quality.
