Description
18 Sound 6NMB900 – Compact, High-Performance Neodymium Mid‑Bass Driver
The 18 Sound 6NMB900 is a professional-grade 6.5-inch neodymium mid-bass driver built for systems that demand powerful output, exceptional clarity, and compact dimensions. Engineered and precisely manufactured in Italy by 18 Sound—an industry authority in transducer innovation—the 6NMB900 delivers premium sonic performance in a lightweight and robust package.
Whether you’re crafting a high-output line array, portable PA system, or refined studio monitor, the 6NMB900 offers articulate mid-bass response, reliable operation, and enduring build quality—trusted by sound professionals, touring engineers, and integrators worldwide.
Optimized for Mid-Bass Clarity and Precision
At the heart of the 6NMB900 lies a 44 mm (1.75‑inch) edge-wound aluminum voice coil, optimized for thermal efficiency and stable performance under load. The neodymium magnet structure ensures high magnetic flux in a lightweight assembly, supporting consistent output without bulk.
Covering a frequency range from 200 Hz to 7 kHz, the 6NMB900 provides robust mid-bass reproduction that’s ideal for vocal and instrument presence, yet it blends smoothly with high-frequency drivers. Its sensitivity of 97.0 dB SPL (1W/1m) allows dynamic, high-output systems with less amplification—ideal for energy-efficient, compact installs.
High Output with Low Distortion
The 6NMB900 is rated for 200 W AES and 260 W continuous program power, delivering confident, long-term performance without strain. A Single Demodulating Ring (SDR) and ventilated motor design reduce distortion and improve transient accuracy—even under peak excursion levels.
Its ±3 mm linear Xmax allows tight control of cone motion, translating into clean, impactful mid-bass output without the muddiness often found in smaller drivers.
Built for Consistency and Durability
The treated paper cone is moisture-resistant and precisely shaped for optimal rigidity and natural damping—ensuring dependable performance whether in a controlled studio or a humidity-prone environment.
Neodymium materials and vented design elements aid thermal management, while the driver’s rugged assembly ensures lasting service in touring, installation, and outdoor settings.
Ideal for Compact High-Output Systems
The 6NMB900 is suited for a wide range of professional applications:
-
Line array modules requiring compact mid-bass solutions
-
Portable two-way systems where space and weight are limited
-
Stage monitors needing powerful yet compact bass outputs
-
Custom multi-driver enclosures with tight footprint constraints
Its versatile performance, lightweight build (~1.25 kg), and consistent output make it a go-to choice for demanding sound environments.
