Experience the rich detail and sonic excellence of Alpine’s next-generation S-Series loudspeakers — now featuring Hi-Res Audio for the first time.
The S-Series continues to establish the benchmark in sound quality and value by producing impressively detailed loudspeakers that accurately represent true studio-level Hi-Resolution audio faithful across the entire frequency bandwidth.
Alpine innovation continues with all-new technology and engineering in the construction and materials adopted in the new S-Series. The exclusive design composite glass fiber hybrid cone is extremely rigid and lightweight, which further unites with Alpine’s patented HAMR surround to achieve increased control and excursion of the woofer diaphragm, resulting in pure, punchy sound and powerful bass at high SPL.
In addition, the 1” soft dome tweeters come alive in the upper harmonics, delivering an incredibly smooth and detailed high frequency response that’s extended right up to 40kHz — so you can hear the finest nuances in your music.
With an extensive range of component and coaxial speakers, the new S-Series is the most impressive and versatile speaker line-up ever, providing system configuration flexibility and installation compatibility into virtual any vehicle type.
Take your in-car sound to the next-level with the new S-Series loudspeakers rivalling performance far beyond their modest price-point.
KTE-S65G Grilles pictured are sold separately.
AN ALL-NEW AUDIOPHILE EXPERIENCE FOR S-SERIES
What is Hi-Res Audio?
With Hi-Res Audio streaming services and music downloads available you can now appreciate a higher sampling rate than in CD’s for the playback of music, which brings your favourite music tracks to life with extreme clarity. Alpine’s Hi-Res Audio Certified Head Units, Amplifiers and Digital Signal Processors are painstaking engineered to deliver faithful audio reproduction from high resolution sources and recordings with sample rates up to 192kHz/24Bit. These components are optimised for high definition playback and breathtaking performance, true to the artists original recording.
Why Hi-Res Audio?
Listening to Hi-Resolution Audio allows you to feel every emotion and hear every nuance; every detail of your favourite artist’s original studio performance is reproduced to perfection. Hi-Res Audio provides absolutely no distortion for the ultimate listening experience.
Why Hi-Res Audio Certified Speakers?
Hi-Res Audio goes beyond the limits of ordinary speakers. To accurately render the sound of Hi-Resolution sound sources and recordings in true high definition the reproduction of an extended dynamic frequency range right up-to 40kHz is paramount.
Hi-Res Audio Certified
All-New for S-Series, Hi-Res Audio Certification brings a whole new dimension of sonic excellence to your everyday drive. With an impressive extended dynamic range, playing upper harmonics all the way up to 40kHz, your tracks will come alive with a level of detail and nuance faithful to that of the original recording.
HAMR Surround
Not only does Alpine’s patented High Amplitude Multi-Roll (HAMR) surround maintain full control over the cone at any stage of excursion for high SPL. It’s ability to far exceed the maximum linear excursion of regular domed surround allows for beautifully pure sound and punchy bass.
Glass Fiber Composite Woofer Cone
The door woofer features an all-new glass fiber composite cone, which due to its directionally weaved construction is engineered to be far stronger than a traditional oval cone diaphragm. The resulting rigidity coupled to glass-fiber’s innate lightness results in highly controlled cone excursion producing excellent response and audio reproduction.
Versatile Tweeter Installation
The 1” Soft Dome Tweeters cater to a wide-array of installation methods. They can be flush mounted and swivelled within the housing to find the exact axis sweet spot. For stealth applications the frames can be removed to reduce down to a fraction of their original size to suit any installation and easy replacement of factory fitted OEM tweeters.
Large Magnet Structure
The large strontium magnets housed on the back of S-Series speakers mean business. Combined with large voice coils and Alpine’s patented HAMR Surrounds, increase cone excursion and the force of the driver to provide louder, punchier sound.
