【ZR Prestige 18SW -brushed-｜An 18cm Subwoofer Usable as a Mid-Bass】

You want solid low-end, but you don’t want the sound to stand out as if only the subwoofer were playing. While maintaining a strong connection with the front speakers, you want to add depth to the overall music. That’s exactly what the ZR Prestige 18SW -brushed- from ZR Speaker Lab is designed for.

A major feature of this model is its large center cap. With a low minimum resonance frequency (Fs) of 34Hz, it is an 18cm-class unit—but it’s designed not only to serve as a mid-bass, but also to work as a small-diameter subwoofer.

This is a unit that’s easy to integrate while keeping the balance of the entire system in mind—not just by increasing the amount of bass. From the frequency range that supports vocals and instruments, down to the low notes that form the foundation of the music, it helps you build a system that sounds right. When you listen to your usual tracks, you can aim for a result where it’s not just the presence of the bass pushing forward, but where thickness is added to the sound and everything comes together naturally.

The cone uses a special two-layer coating applied to a fiber-reinforced paper cone. In addition, it features a powerful magnetic circuit combining a unique basket structure, a 25mm voice coil, and a large ferrite magnet. With this configuration, the model is engineered to deliver a rich, natural tonal character.

However, speakers aren’t “finished” just by swapping the unit. How they sound changes significantly depending on the mounting method, box volume, how they’re combined with the front speakers, and the settings of the amplifier and DSP. Whether you use it as a mid-bass or as a subwoofer also changes the thinking behind the installation and adjustments that will be needed.

At LOGON, we work with you to determine the best role for this unit—taking into account your vehicle model, your current audio setup, the music you usually listen to, and your preferences regarding bass. If you’re going to replace it, we want to make it so the result sounds great for the long term—not just by boosting the bass, but by ensuring the connection with the front speakers as well.

The ZR Prestige 18SW -brushed- is a made-to-order product. If you’re considering it for installation in your vehicle and as part of your system configuration, please let us know your current specifications and the sound direction you want. We will propose a sensible configuration while confirming your actual vehicle and system.
