Our take on the Alpine SPS-69C2

Alpine Authorized Online Dealer

Alpine's Type-S speakers combine outstanding materials and precise construction with an attractive price. Their efficient design provides powerful sound even when system power is low — yet beefy internal parts ensure they can handle it when you crank the volume.

But powerful output doesn't count for much if you don't like what you're hearing. The SPS-69C2 6"x9" speakers bring out all the details in your music with pivoting silk dome tweeters that direct clear highs to your ears without a hint of harshness. The aluminum-coated woofer cones move freely in the air-injected rubber surrounds for strong, accurate bass response.

Our Product Research Team

At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere. That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box, verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs. We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.

Features

Aluminum-coated Polypropylene Woofer Cones: Each speaker features an aluminum-coated polypropylene woofer. Aluminum adds strength and heat resistance to polypropylene, resulting in reduced distortion and improved reliability.

Air-injected Rubber Surrounds: For a smoother response and improved durability, the woofers use air-injected rubber surrounds.

Silk Dome Swivel Tweeter: Each speaker uses a silk dome tweeter for smooth high frequencies. The speaker features a swivel/angle tweeter design for better imaging and livelier sound in your vehicle.

Wave-Guide Design: The Type-S speakers feature a wave-guide grill design over the tweeter for better in-cabin sound expansion and less distortion. The angle of the tweeter wave-guide complements the angle of the surround guard (when used with the supplied grilles), resulting in linear expansion of sound and less distortion of mid and high frequencies.

Mounting Rings: Without any adapter, the speakers are standard 6"x9" top mounts. The supplied adapter rings allow the speakers to be installed in a bottom mount application.

Great Product for the money!

Written By carmar0125, Killeen, TX on Monday, April 06, 2009
 
Purchased these back in December and finally got them installed. Couldn't be happier with the crisp and clean sound. I have them powered with an Kicker 350.4 and have fulfilled my expectations by far. Great price. By no means do they take the job of a subwoofer but suffice for the time being till I can get a sub installed in my '08 Nissan Xterra.

Sad to see them be discontinued

Written By Pat, SF Bay Area on Friday, March 06, 2009
 
These speakers were recommended by
Crutchfield, I now know why. I installed them behind the seat of my 62 Ranchero in a custom designed box. They thump. I powered them with an Alpine F250 Amp and this sytem is better then some of the higher end systems I built whe I was young and had great hearing...

My teenage daughter says the stereo is too loud, I find that hard to believe...

I told her it does have lower volume if she wants it that way, I will know how she really feels when I hear her driving up from a block away...

the price, you can't go wrong.

Alpine SPS-69C2

Written By Jack, Rock Springs, Wy on Monday, January 19, 2009
 
The pair of Alpine SPS-69C2's that I teamed with the Kenwood KDC-MP228 CD/MP3 unit that I got from Crutchfield made an exelent pairing. The sound quality improvement was dramatic across the full range, treble to bass. over the stock speakers in my '98 Neon RT. Installation was simple and the Dodge wire kit worked perfectly. It's hard not to crank up the volume and truely enjoy the high quaility sound while going down the road.

Great value

Got these to replace the crummy rear speakers in my Mazda 626. A HUGE improvement. Good bass, crisp highs. For the price, absolutely awesome.

Big improvement!

Written By Smiley, Livingston, LA. on Thursday, December 11, 2008
 
I bought these after a previous upgrade that was a disapointment. They said they wouldn't fit in my doors, but the included grill spacer made them a perfect fit in my '98 Dodge Ram 1500 Club Cab. I was skeptical at first, but they exceded my expectations. Tight bass and crisp highs, a lot better clarity than the 5 1/4" Kenwoods I previously installed. I kept my other Kenwood 5 1/4" 3 way's in my rear side panels, gives it a surround sound feel.

I know they don't make components like they used to, but Alpine has never let me down in the past. Now I can't wait to install my 10" subs! Thanks Alpine! Thanks Crutchfield! Y'all hit the nail on the head this time!

Nice Improvement

Written By tony, Cleveland, Ohio on Thursday, December 04, 2008
 
I bought these to replace the rear deck speakers on my 2007 Accord
Coupe. The Accord stock head unit is pretty good, but the rear speakers
had no high response due to the lack of tweater, and poor bass response
(muddy and distorted) due to the smallest speaker magnet I have ever
seen. The Alpine's have stronger, tigher bass and provide nice highs from
the rear of the car giving a more surround sound feel. Overall they are
louder, clearer, and make the stock system, even with the stock front
speakers, sound much better. Worth every penny!
