Overview Details Customer Reviews Category Info Accessories Our take on the Alpine Type-R SPR-17LP by Ken Nail Why replace your factory speakers? The speakers that originally came in your car were made from inexpensive materials, designed to create acceptable sound at the lowest possible cost to the manufacturer. If you love music, you deserve better. Name-brand aftermarket speakers deliver fuller, richer sound with considerably more detail and nuance, and they're capable of playing louder and cleaner than factory speakers. Connect new speakers to your factory radio and you'll get the best possible sound from your dealer-equipped system. Pair them up with a new car stereo for a level of enjoyment that can rival a high-fidelity home audio experience. Alpine's audio engineers have used many of the high-end elements found in their acclaimed Type-R component systems to create the smooth-sounding, high-performance Type-R coaxial speakers. The SPR-17LP 6-3/4" 2-way speakers feature multi-layered pulp cones with rubber surrounds that hang tough when you turn up the volume. Alpine builds the woofers with high-strength steel baskets and heavy-duty speaker motors for the steady support they need when the system is cranked. You'll enjoy full low-frequency response with low distortion. Alpine's 1" silk dome Point Source tweeters radiate enveloping highs. A special tuned chamber behind each tweeter increases driver efficiency to ensure crisp, clear reproduction.

Features Multi-layer Pulp Woofer Cones: Each speaker features a multi-layer pulp cone, for maximum strength, powerful bass and superior musical detail. For a smoother response and improved durability, the woofers use rubber surrounds. 1" Silk Dome Tweeters: Each speaker uses a 1" silk dome point source tweeter for better sound quality with less distortion. The unique design of the point source tweeter eliminates any cross cancellation between woofer and tweeter, and aligns the sound waves, for smooth sound performance. GM/Chrysler Adapter Rings: The GM/Chrysler adapter rings allow the speakers to be installed in a standard 6-1/2" opening or an oversized 6-3/4" GM/Chrysler opening. The adapter rings have tabs that must be broken off when the speakers are mounted in a standard 6-1/2" opening. Standard 6-1/2": Using the adapter ring, the speaker top-mounts in a standard 6-1/2" opening with a special size of 92. When used in a 6-1/2" application, the speaker has the following dimensions: Vehicle Fit: Top Mount Depth: 2.278" Mounting Height: 0.661" Flange Height: 0.501" Basket Dimensions: Magnet Diameter: 3.996" Cutout Diameter: 4.997" Frame Width: 6.208" Frame Length: 6.208" Bolt Pattern: Number of Holes: 3 Perimeter 1: 4.542" Perimeter 2: 4.757" Minor Axis 1: 3.715" Minor Axis 2: 3.835" Major Axis 1: 4.542" Major Axis 2: 4.757" Oversized 6-3/4" GM/Chrysler: When used in an oversized 6-3/4" GM/Chrysler application, the speaker has the following dimensions: Vehicle Fit: Top Mount Depth: 2.278" Mounting Height: 0.661" Flange Height: 0.501" Basket Dimensions: Magnet Diameter: 3.996" Cutout Diameter: 4.997" Frame Width: 6.208" Frame Length: 6.208" Bolt Pattern: Number of holes: 3 Hole 1 (long tab) to Hole 2 (short tab): 6.028"-6.203" Hole 1 (long tab) to Hole 3 (short tab): 6.011"-6.163" Hole 2 (short tab) to Hole 3 (short tab): 6.117"-6.414" Honda OEM Adapter Rings: In many Honda Civics, these adapter rings can be used to replace the factory mounting cups.

Crutchfield Customer Review The reviewer purchased this item from us, verified by the email address on the order. I purchased these speakers for the front doors of my S10 crew cab and they are GREAT! I am pushing around 130 watts to each and suck it up and spit it out with great quality. They hit with the just right amount of bass. I only wanted mid and sub from them and got alot of both! I plan on buying another set for the rear doors. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Smooth mid to high freq. response and great bass Written By Mick, Wheatfield, NY on Wednesday, December 27, 2006 This speaker received poor reviews from people who dont know what they have. They needs more than head unit power to reach potential and can take more clean power than what they are rated for. There is no comparison to the the Infinty speakers that some have mentioned. Once you give these a chance (and some power) they are hands down the better speaker if you want your music accurate and uncolored. The infinities have a very bright, artificial and (to my ear) harsh sound to them and will induce ear fatigue after a short time. These Alpines however are full and rich and wonderful IF you drive them with an external power amp of 60 to 100 WPC RMS. I've been at the car stereo game since the 70s (that's right I'm an old timer but there isn't a kid around who's system compares to mine). I've owned my own shop and done custom installs and had one of the first true component car stereo systems around back when everyone else was still amplifying distortion with "power boosters". I always liked my music clean and uncolored. If you prefer overly harsh "make your ears bleed" highs then I suggest the infinities are more your style but if you prefer clean, full and rich sound accross the entire freq. range, you should give these a listen. Just remember that when compared with most other speakers on the board at your local shop, they will sound like they're at 1/2 volume. Tell them to amp them and turn them up and you'll hear them come to life. You'll be glad you did. On the other hand, if you plan to drive these with your head unit power only, you might want to pass on them for something more efficient unless you plan to add an amp later. 7 out of 7 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?
