Bundle contents
This bundle combines an Alpine PXE-C80-88 OPTIM8 8-Channel Hi-Res Digital Sound Processor Amplifier with an Alpine R2-S65 6.5" Coaxial Speaker pair and an Alpine R2-S69C 6x9" 2-Way Component Speaker Set. The amplifier provides eight channels of amplification and high-resolution audio processing in a single unit. The speakers are designed to reproduce a wide frequency range for detailed sound reproduction.
Sustained performance
The amplifier includes Anti-EQ functionality to correct factory audio signals and a 31-band parametric and graphic EQ for precise tuning adjustments. Real-time sound tuning is managed through a PC or iPhone application for ongoing customisation. The R2-S65 coaxial speakers use glass fibre reinforced cones and integrated hard-dome tweeters for fast transient response. The R2-S69C component set features a 4.3 cm tweeter paired with a 6x9" door woofer for accurate imaging.
System integration limits
The amplifier serves as an all-in-one processor and power source, reducing the need for separate components in the signal chain. Its eight channels must match the speaker configuration for proper operation. The R2-S65 and R2-S69C speakers are high-resolution models requiring adequate power and clean signal for optimal performance. Buyers who want more channels than eight or speakers with different impedance requirements should consider other options.
