Vendor:DS18 Motorcycle2014–2023 HARLEY-DAVIDSON FRONT-STAGE AUDIO DS18 Harley-Davidson Front Stage Speaker and Bullet Tweeter Kit Build a stronger front soundstage on a compatible 2014–2023 Harley-Davidson Road Glide or Street Glide with a matched pair of DS18 slim 6.5-inch midrange speakers and fairing-specific replacement grilles preloaded with NVY neodymium bullet tweeters. Each kit combines powerful midrange projection, dedicated high-frequency output, inline tweeter crossovers and a clean OEM-style grille installation. Select the Road Glide or Street Glide version that matches the motorcycle’s fairing. Choose Fairing Style See What Is Included Complete Front-Stage Upgrade Road Glide and Street Glide versions available Designed for compatible 2014–2023 Harley Touring fairings Two PRO-CF6.4SLN slim 6.5-inch midrange speakers 150 watts RMS per midrange speaker 4-ohm nominal impedance per midrange Water-resistant carbon-fiber cones Neodymium midrange motor structure Two 2.5-inch NVY bullet tweeters Inline tweeter crossovers included Direct-fit replacement fairing grilles DS18 Harley Front Stage Kit Overview This DS18 package replaces the factory front speaker locations with higher-output midrange drivers while adding dedicated bullet tweeters directly to the replacement fairing grilles. The PRO-CF6.4SLN speakers are shallow 6.5-inch midrange drivers designed for space-limited motorcycle installations. Their carbon-fiber cones, neodymium motors and 93dB sensitivity help deliver strong vocals, guitars and upper midrange frequencies through wind, road and exhaust noise. The NVY grille assemblies place one bullet tweeter on each side of the fairing. Inline crossovers filter lower frequencies before they reach the tweeters, while the fairing-specific grille design maintains a clean factory-style appearance. Road Glide and Street Glide Variants 2014–2023 Road Glide Includes the PRO-CF6.4SLN midrange speaker pair and the NVY-HDGRGTW.1423LD Road Glide grille and bullet tweeter package. The grilles are shaped for compatible sharknose fairing speaker locations. Package SKU: PRO-CF6.4SLN.2pk + NVY-HDGRGTW.1423LD Road Glide-specific replacement grille pair 102dB published tweeter sensitivity 2014–2023 Street Glide Includes the PRO-CF6.4SLN midrange speaker pair and the NVY-HDGSGTW.1423LD Street Glide grille and bullet tweeter package. The grilles are shaped for compatible batwing fairing speaker locations. Package SKU: PRO-CF6.4SLN.2pk + NVY-HDGSGTW.1423LD Street Glide-specific replacement grille pair 105dB published tweeter sensitivity Select the correct variant: Road Glide and Street Glide fairings use different grille shapes and mounting systems. Confirm the exact motorcycle year, model and fairing before ordering. Speaker Impedance and Amplifier Planning Midrange Impedance Each PRO-CF6.4SLN midrange speaker has a nominal impedance of 4 ohms. Tweeter Impedance Each grille-mounted NVY bullet tweeter has a nominal impedance of 4 ohms and must be used with its crossover filtering. Final Channel Load The final amplifier load depends on how the midrange and crossover network are connected. Verify the complete wiring configuration before selecting or configuring an amplifier. Do not assume a constant 2-ohm load: A 4-ohm midrange and a 4-ohm tweeter connected through a frequency-selective crossover do not behave like two unfiltered full-range resistive loads. Confirm amplifier stability with the final wiring and crossover arrangement. Everything Included in the Front Stage Kit Two PRO-CF6.4SLN Midrange Speakers One matched pair of slim-profile 6.5-inch midrange loudspeakers rated at 150 watts RMS and 300 watts maximum per speaker. Fairing-Specific Replacement Grilles One left-and-right Road Glide or Street Glide replacement grille pair, depending on the selected Shopify variant. Two NVY Bullet Tweeters Each replacement grille is preloaded with one 2.5-inch neodymium bullet tweeter for dedicated high-frequency output. Two Inline Crossovers The included crossover modules filter damaging lower frequencies before they reach the bullet tweeters. Package contents: This listing includes the front midrange speaker pair, selected fairing grille pair, two preinstalled bullet tweeters and inline crossover filtering. An amplifier, DSP, amplifier wiring and unrelated rear speakers are not included. Why Riders Choose This DS18 Front Stage Highway-Ready Midrange The midrange speakers emphasize the vocal and instrument frequencies that must overcome wind, engine and road noise. Dedicated High Frequencies Grille-mounted bullet tweeters improve the projection of vocals, cymbals and upper-frequency detail. Slim Speaker Design The shallow PRO-CF6.4SLN frame is engineered for compact motorcycle fairing installations where mounting depth is limited. Carbon-Fiber Cones Water-resistant carbon-fiber cones provide a rigid, lightweight diaphragm for clear and controlled midrange output. Neodymium Motors Lightweight neodymium motor structures reduce unnecessary weight while supporting efficient speaker output. OEM-Style Appearance The tweeters are integrated into vehicle-specific replacement grilles rather than mounted in unrelated external pods.

High-Frequency Coverage The bullet tweeters extend the front stage into the upper frequencies while the inline crossovers protect them from lower frequency energy. This is not a full-range bass system: The PRO-CF6.4SLN is a dedicated midrange speaker. System design should use appropriate high-pass filtering and, where stronger bass is required, separate mid-bass or subwoofer drivers. Amplifier and Crossover Setup Use an amplifier that is stable with the final connected channel load. Match amplifier output to the 150-watt RMS rating of each midrange speaker. Use the supplied inline crossover modules with the bullet tweeters. Do not send unfiltered bass or midrange energy directly to the tweeters. Use appropriate high-pass filtering on the PRO-CF6.4SLN midranges. Set amplifier gain with clean measured output rather than by volume position alone. Verify speaker and tweeter polarity on both sides of the fairing. Secure the crossovers and wiring against vibration and fairing-panel contact. Confirm that all wiring is protected from heat, sharp edges and moving components. Professional installation and system tuning are recommended.

The kit includes two PRO-CF6.4SLN slim 6.5-inch midrange speakers, one pair of fairing-specific replacement grilles, two preinstalled NVY bullet tweeters and two inline tweeter crossover modules. Does this listing cover both Road Glide and Street Glide? Yes. Choose the Road Glide or Street Glide variant. Each option uses a different grille assembly matched to its specific fairing. What impedance are the midrange speakers? Each PRO-CF6.4SLN midrange speaker has a nominal impedance of 4 ohms. What impedance are the bullet tweeters? Each grille-mounted bullet tweeter has a nominal impedance of 4 ohms. Does the complete system create a 2-ohm load? Do not assume a constant 2-ohm load. The tweeter uses a frequency-selective crossover, so the final impedance varies with frequency and depends on the actual wiring arrangement. How much power can the midrange speakers handle? Each midrange speaker is rated for 150 watts RMS and 300 watts maximum. What is the difference between the Road Glide and Street Glide tweeters? The grille shapes are different. DS18 also publishes 102dB tweeter sensitivity for the Road Glide package and 105dB for the Street Glide package. Are the tweeter crossovers included? Yes. Inline crossover modules are supplied with the grille and tweeter assemblies. Can the tweeters be connected without the crossovers? No. The tweeters require crossover or high-pass protection to prevent damaging lower frequencies from reaching the high-frequency drivers. Are these full-range speakers? The PRO-CF6.4SLN is a dedicated midrange loudspeaker. The grille-mounted tweeters supply the upper frequencies. Additional mid-bass or subwoofers may be needed for stronger low-frequency output. Is an amplifier included? No. This package contains the speakers, tweeter grilles and crossover modules. The amplifier, DSP and amplifier wiring are sold separately. Are the components weather resistant? The midranges use water-resistant carbon-fiber cones. The tweeters are IP65 rated, and the grille assemblies use UV-resistant construction with protective cloth backing. Need Help Matching This DS18 Front Stage? Garage Bagger Stereo can help verify Road Glide or Street Glide fitment, speaker impedance, amplifier matching, mounting clearance, crossover wiring and factory or aftermarket signal integration before the system is installed.
