About this product
The NVY-8PROXL-N2 is an 8" midrange loudspeaker from the DS18 NVY series, the brand's high-performance line. It handles 400 watts RMS and 800 watts peak at 2 ohms. Construction includes a water-resistant paper cone, a treated cloth surround and an aluminum basket. The motor uses a neodymium assembly. An IP65 rating protects the driver against water and dust in open-air installs on boats, side-by-sides and powersports vehicles. Sensitivity is rated at 97dB across a 60Hz to 18kHz response. Mounting requires a 7.2" / 183mm cutout and 3.36" / 85.5mm of depth, so confirm the opening before installing. Sold as a pair.
Water-Resistant Paper Cone Construction
The water-resistant paper cone holds its shape under sustained power instead of flexing and losing definition, paired with treated cloth surround and aluminum basket. Material choice is what separates a driver that stays accurate from one that only plays loud.
Neodymium Motor, 400W RMS
A neodymium motor drives 400 watts RMS and 800 watts peak, built around 2" voice coil on a kapton former and 10 Oz of magnet. Neodymium keeps the motor compact and the magnetic field strong, which means tighter cone control at full output.
IP65 Water and UV Protection
Engineered to endure: IP65 rated against water and dust, aluminum construction. Built for open-air installs where the speaker lives exposed to saltwater, spray and sun year round.
Full-Range Clarity From 60Hz to 18kHz
The driver covers 60Hz to 18kHz as a single moving assembly, so the midrange stays continuous instead of handing off between drivers. Vocals and instruments hold their body and their edge at the top of the volume range.
97dB Efficiency Under Power
At 97dB, the motor and cone convert amplifier power into acoustic output with little waste. Less energy turns into heat, the voice coil runs cooler through long sessions, and dynamics stay intact when the system is pushed.
