Features

  • Type-R speakers have been known for their dependability and sound performance at a mid-line price. Chances are, youve heard the Type-R speakers and appreciated the loud & fun listening experience.
  • The R-Series speakers use a new ring-type tweeter voice coil for increased efficiency and better tonal balance across the entire sound band, for improved overall sound quality.
  • Using the highly successful Type-R speakers as a foundation, we applied various performance and hardware improvements to the design, essentially transforming them into the new R-Series speakers The Next Evolution of Proven Performance.
  • The new metal mesh grille with the R-Series logo badge provides a classic, attractive look. The mesh design also provides added sturdiness to the grilles edge, for better protection against intrusions on the side of the speaker.

  • Solid value, smooth sounding tweeter, great snare drum pop, light weight, small magnet
Style: 2-Way Car Speakers
I placed these speakers in the front doors of my 2000 Ford F-350. It has the loud diesel engine, so the speakers had to be capable of high volumes. They were replacing some pretty nice Infinity Kappa speakers from ~8 years ago. The Infinity speakers had aluminum dome tweeters and very large magnets. The sound was pretty good, but they fatigued my ears after listening for a while. I could never quite get them set right to play loud without being kind of harsh. These Alpine R-types have the ring type soft dome tweeters, so they are not harsh at all. You can really hear the difference on the crash symbols and "S" sounds from vocals. The snare has a really nice pop to it as well, which I love. You can feel the impact of the snare and toms just like a real drum set. I'm actually getting some pretty good bass from them too, even with the high pass set at 60hz. Installation was very easy since these have the small, light weight magnets. I think it's like any good speaker - you have to put in the work on the installation. I have a wood mounting surface and closed cell foam between my speaker and the door panel with dynamat all over everything. If you plan on doing a good installation, amping them, and running a subwoofer, then you should not be disappointed with the smooth, accurate sound of these. ... show more

  • Excellent sound
Style: 2-Way Car Speakers
I had the type s 6x9's before the type r's and let me tell you the difference is not night and day but is noticeable. What is interesting to me is the size of the type s vs type r magnets. The type r's magnet is about 1/4th the size of the type s which is a good thing for installation purposes and fitting into tight places, but is unsual to me because the type r does sound better than the type s and one would expect the type r to have the larger magnet given its price point and level in Alpines speaker line. One could argue that the type s 6x9 has more bass than the type r in terms of low bass, and that may be true due to the magnet size of the type s. Seriously, pick up a pair of type s and look at the magnet vs the type r's its inane. But, I don't buy 6x9's for low bass I buy them for mid punch bass and thats just what these speakers do. They are being fed about 80 watts RMS a piece and get loud and clear. I am very happy with my purchase. Type S 6.5 components up front (soon to be type-r) and these 6x9's in the rear powered by a ct sounds at 60.4 slash polk audio d2000.2. ... show more

  • Received Broken Tweeter

The media could not be loaded. Unboxed the speakers to install in the rear deck of the Mustang only to find one of the tweeters was broken.

  • They are great
Style: 2-Way Car Speakers
Best car speakers i could ever buy for my Newedge mustang. Perfect sound quality, crisp, and gets loud. Lacks a bit of bass, but just buy a 8 inch type r sub, and a shallow box and you're set. I'm running it on my soundstream headunit, which i got with my car, and it works, but wants a bit more power for it to get actually loud. You'll want more than 300w peak to run these awesome speakers. ... show more

  • Unbelievable.
Style: 2-Way Car Speakers
These are incredible speakers. A little expensive but they were one of only a couple of pairs that could handle the 100 watts rms rating of my Alpine A60F Amplifier plus they were a perfect match! When I set the gains on the amp, I turned my Alpine ilx-207 all the wsy up snd there was no distortion. And then I turned the amp up to 3/4 full volume before I heard a little bit and I backed it down. These things are incredible. Especially if you have subs and crossovers!!!! Awesome dound quality. ... show more
