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 audio sweet spot. Or for stealth applications can reduce down to a fraction of their original size by removing the installation frame and trim ring for installations into OEM locations such as inside A-pillars, mirror triangles or door panels. 

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.

Simply Huge!

S2-S80C are the largest drivers ever to wear the S-Series insignia. Alpine’s renowned HAMR Surround technology and featherweight glass-fibre cone allow the massive 200mm woofers to output punchy, concise mid-bass beats all-day long.
