Alpine R2-S65C 6.5" Component Speaker System Hi-Res

Description

The third generation of Alpine's R-Series is here!

Alpine has completely redesigned its R-Series speaker range, and all new models are now Hi-Res Audio certified, with a frequency response extending up to 40 kHz!
For the first time in Alpine's history, the R-Series range now includes a three-way range that has been eagerly anticipated in recent years. Two options are available for the two-way component ranges: Standard and Professional.
In addition to component ranges, 6.5″ and 6 x 9″ coaxial speakers are also available.

Alpine 2022 R-Series range:

• R2-S65 Standard (6.5″ coaxial)
• R2-S69 Standard (6×9″ coaxial)
• R2-S65C Standard (6.5″ component range)
• R2-S69C Standard (6×9″ component range)
• R2-S652 PROFESSIONAL (6.5″ component range)
• R2-S653 PROFESSIONAL (6.5″ three-way range)

6.5″ component range
The R2-S65C is a component range from the new R-Series range, featuring a 6.5″ mid-bass and a 4.3 cm tweeter. The completely redesigned range has an extremely wide frequency response, from 65 Hz all the way up to 40 kHz.

Glass-fiber reinforced cone
The mid-bass speakers in the new R-Series ranges now feature glass-fiber reinforced cones. The cone material is extremely light and extremely rigid, allowing for truly precise reproduction.

Composite baskets and large magnets
All new R-Series "Standard" models (R2-S65, R2-S65C, R2-S69 and R2-S69C) feature a composite basket, while the "Pro" models feature cast baskets.
The new models feature significantly larger magnets than previous R-Series models, yet the mounting depth has still been kept the same.

Hi-Res Audio tweeters
The new magnesium-cone tweeters reproduce even the smallest details of music with true precision, with reproduction extending all the way up to 40 kHz.
You can install the tweeters using surface-mount cups or use flush-mount cups. Both installation options allow you to further aim the tweeters within the cups.

Easy installation
The tweeter speakers are detachable, and installing them in place of the car's factory-fitted tweeter, for example in the A-pillar, mirror triangle, or door panel, is now possible in even more cars. This type of installation allows the car's interior appearance to remain unchanged.

Super-tweeter filters
The extremely small tweeter crossover filters are easy to install, and in most cases they can be installed directly between the original tweeter wires, for example behind the door panel, which saves a considerable amount of installation time compared to a large three- or two-way filter.
The tweeter filter has a three-stage level adjustment (-3 dB / 0 dB / +3 dB).

HAMR suspension
Thanks to Alpine's HAMR (High-Amplitude Multi-Roll) suspension, the cone's movement remains linear at all volume levels, which ensures highly controlled bass reproduction even at higher volumes.

New protective grilles
The protective grilles for the third-generation R-Series range are both sturdy and extremely refined. The grilles are designed so that the outer diameter of the speakers does not increase at all.
