Is the DS18 ZR8 a 900 W subwoofer?

No. DS18 rates both versions at 450 W RMS and lists 900 W as maximum power. Its web addresses lead with 900 W, so read the RMS line when matching an amplifier.

Should I buy the ZR8.4D or the ZR8.2D?

Choose by the load your amplifier is rated for. The ZR8.4D gives 2 Ω in parallel or 8 Ω in series, and the ZR8.2D gives 1 Ω in parallel or 4 Ω in series. Both have a ₹16,990 MRP.

Which box suits the ZR8?

DS18 publishes no recommended volume, only Thiele/Small data such as a Vas of 5.33 L for the ZR8.4D and 5.74 L for the ZR8.2D. It says the sub works sealed or ported, so ask us about a custom box.
