Alpine R-S65C.2 6.5 Inch Component 2-Way Speakers (Pair)

I discovered the front audio in my 04 Subaru was only outputting high frequencies during a voice call, just tinny sounds from the door handle. Removing the door card revealed a set of corroded Alpine Type E speakers, rated at 25w, with rotten MDF mounts, rusted fixings and chunky cross-overs with tweeters fallen behind the door card. Having recently replaced the head unit with an Android 4x40w radio I thought I'd not skimp on the speakers and chose these two way component speakers from Alpine, together with some Boom Mat baffles and some plastic surrounds (I didn't want rotting wood, irrespective of perceived sound quality). Replacement was pretty much like for like, though the much deeper drive units on the subwoofer meant meant fixing them to the door via the mounts and through the foam baffle. The cross-over was much smaller, with spade connectors rather than forked terminals to connect the speakers. I didn't have a tweeter mount, so used 3M vhb tape as a stopgap. Firing up the head unit I tried my playlist that usually wakes my household; Halestorm, Five Finger Death Punch, Eva Under Fire, Alter Bridge, Tremonti, Disturbed, AC-DC, etc. All were heard though several inches of brickwork in the house with car parked outside at just over half volume. Bass was the most outstanding, with clear mids. Maybe the vocals could have been more forward, but perhaps that just needs tweaking of the eq. Any more volume and the car doors start to shake, so I suspect I'll need a sub to get more bass, but for now, I'm very happy, unlike my neighbours 😂

I put these in my 07 corolla with the alpine w650 headunit and I do not have an amp for these and they still sound really good maybe not as bright as they could possible be but I can easily fix that with more power these things have amazing clarity and with no amp they take more power to run than the kickers that I had prior. On top of that my car had the option for tweeter but never had them as the base model econobox so adding them really brighten up everything and the woofers do need more power to really hear them but when I get that amp I only be more happy with this purchase. Now its time to replace the 6x9 in the rear with the same r s6x9 coaxial kit and get either the alpine power pack or maybe a decent 4 channel amp with the 12 inch sub it pairs perfectly with decent bass and clarity.

SPR-176Aを皮切りにSPR-60Cを経てこの度R-S65C.2へアップグレードをしたRフリークです。この2ウェイコンポーネントは、3ウェイに負けず劣らずのパフォーマンスを発揮してくれます。基本的には組上げたシステムでサイケデリックトランス系を好んで爆音で聞くが80’ｓアイドル系・90’ｓBass Music系・邦楽・洋楽・クラシック等々あらゆる曲の再生時でも音の歪みや割れもなく、排出音に雑味がなく、原音に近いと錯覚するほどの高音質であらゆるジャンルの音楽を楽しむことができます。全体的にはR-S65C.2が奏でる音は少し硬いと感じるかもしれないが、R-SERIESサブウーハー出力をシステム側で絞ってもミッドからはタイトな低音としっかりした中音が鳴りつつ、ツイーターからはリスナーの耳障りにならない豊かな高音を奏でてくれる最高のコンポーネントスピーカーです。

These speakers are really top notch ! Even with a cheap radio they sound amazing ! I'm building a full Alpine car system and I have two pairs and I just ordered an amplifier . Can't wait to see how better they get !!!

I have these hooked up in a 97 4Runner, and I'm thrilled with how these sound! Running off an audio control, 600.4 amp these things just SING! LOUD, crystal clear, I couldn't be happier!

I can't say enough about these. I bought them because they were being sold at a discount because the new r2 was released. The quality of this speaker see is phenomenal. The clarity is unmatched, it was great without an amp, and even better with one. Very cool looking, though nobody will ever see them. Size was perfect for what I needed, functionally perfect! Great bang for the buck!
