Alpine Optim8 8-Channel Amplifier Bundle

This bundle combines an Alpine PXE-C80-88 Optim8 8-channel digital sound processor amplifier with two pairs of Alpine BRV-S65C 6.5-inch component speakers. The amplifier delivers 50W x 6 channels plus 300W x 2 channels at 2 ohms. It processes high-resolution audio at 96kHz/24-bit and includes a 31-band equaliser with automatic tuning via PC or iPhone apps.

Installers Wanting All-in-One DSP and Speakers

The integrated 8-channel amplifier removes the need for separate processor and amp units, simplifying wiring for a complete front, rear and subwoofer system. The component speakers handle 50W RMS and 150W peak each with HEDGE surround technology. Buyers needing more than eight amplified channels or raw drivers without crossovers should consider other options.

Included Crossovers and App Control

The BRV-S65C sets ship with passive crossovers and 0.75-inch tweeters for immediate component installation. Optim Sync Technology aligns tonal balance between woofers and tweeters. The Optim8 amplifier adds anti-EQ correction for factory source units and stores tuned profiles internally, so no external laptop is required once configured.

Questions about this item

What speaker impedance do I need to match the 50 W × 6 and 300 W × 2 channels?

The amplifier delivers 50 W × 6 and 300 W × 2 at 2 Ω, so use 2 Ω speakers or wire pairs to present a 2 Ω load per channel.

Will the 6.5" component speakers handle the 300 W channels without damage?

Each BRV-S65C set is rated 50 W RMS and 150 W peak, so the 300 W channels must be gain-limited or assigned to subwoofers instead of these speakers.

How can I verify the processor is running at 96 kHz / 24-bit after installation?

Open the PC or iPhone tuning app; the interface displays the active sample rate and bit depth, confirming 96 kHz / 24-bit operation.
