Description
The anticipated R-Series 2022 collection is here!
Revamped motors
The second-generation R-series subwoofers feature a large double magnet, which allows for lower frequency response and tighter reproduction compared to the previous R-Series generation. The "Faraday Ring" integrated into the voice coil increases power handling and reduces potential distortion, ensuring clean bass reproduction even at previously higher volumes. The cones of R-Series subwoofers are Kevlar-reinforced, making the cone extremely durable without significantly increasing its weight.
Top-tier performance, already in its second generation
Before the R-Series, Alpine had the Type-R series, which became known for its performance, reliability, and very tight bass reproduction. The second-generation R-Series, now available, offers even better bass response than its predecessor!
Alpine reliability
The new polypropylene/ceramic composite cone is extremely rigid, preventing the cone from acting independently and resulting in a smoother frequency response. The cone material is also highly durable.
Versatile usage options
All new R-Series subwoofers feature dual voice coils (2 x 4ohm or 2 x 2ohm) and come with jumpers, making various wiring options easy to implement. The new "EZ-Change" collar creates a stylish installation, and the EZ-Change ring conceals the mounting screws.
Even more precise reproduction
R-Series subwoofers feature Alpine's patented HAMR (High Amplitude Multi-Roll) surround. This allows for increased cone excursion, and the surround maintains much better control over cone movement than traditional surrounds.
Six different versions
The new R-Series subwoofer lineup includes three different sizes (8″, 10″, 12″), and each subwoofer is available in 2 x 2ohm and 2 x 4ohm versions.
