More about the product
The Hertz ML1800.3 is a premium 180mm woofer from the Mille Legend series, designed for exceptional mid-bass performance in high-end car audio systems. Built with advanced engineering and premium materials, this woofer delivers dynamic sound reproduction with outstanding clarity and control.
The ML1800.3 features a pressed-pulp cone reinforced with cotton fibres, providing the perfect balance of rigidity and lightness. This design ensures fast, accurate movement for clean and detailed sound while reducing distortion. The cone is paired with a low-loss rubber surround that improves linearity and allows greater excursion, resulting in deeper and more controlled bass response.
Its robust aluminium alloy basket offers strength and stability while minimising unwanted vibrations. The vented design enhances airflow and cooling, reducing thermal compression during high-power operation. This ensures consistent performance even under demanding conditions, making it ideal for custom installations.
A key highlight of the ML1800.3 is its large 50mm voice coil. This oversized coil provides superior heat dissipation and high power handling, allowing the woofer to maintain performance during extended listening sessions. Combined with a powerful neodymium magnet, the ML1800.3 achieves impressive efficiency and dynamic range. The motor structure is carefully engineered to maintain symmetry and reduce distortion, delivering clean and precise sound reproduction.
Installation is straightforward thanks to its standard 180mm size, making it suitable for high-end setups where performance is a priority. While the ML1800.3 excels in clarity and punchy mid-bass, it is not intended to replace a dedicated subwoofer for extreme low-frequency output. Instead, it shines in delivering tight, impactful bass and natural vocals, making it perfect for music lovers who value accuracy and detail.
The ML1800.3 pairs seamlessly with Mille Legend tweeters and crossovers for a complete system upgrade, ensuring a balanced and immersive listening experience. Its combination of premium materials, advanced design, and meticulous craftsmanship makes it one of the most refined woofers available for car audio enthusiasts.
