Alpine R-S65.2
Shawn from FORT WAYNE, IN on 3/26/2021
2021 Chevrolet Malibu
Such an improvement over stock. These weren't listed to fit on my rear door for 2021 Malibu non Bose but fit just fine on rear and front. I didn't try with adapter on the rear door but used the alpine universal adapter with no interference on the rear and used sound skin on front face and still had room on the front side. May try with adapter next. Love the fact you can adjust tweeter angle.
Pros: Easy to install and sound great
Cons: None

It sounds so good compared to stock. The highs sound so clear and the mid bass actually thumps. I can't wait to put an amplified DSP to these speakers and add a subwoofer.

Alpine R-S65.2
Crutchfield customer from Ham Lake, MN on 8/28/2020
First off I should tell you that I am a huge fan of Alpine. It's been a long time since my "loud stereo" days but decided to do an upgrade to the bike. These are very nice speakers that sound great, look great and go loud! My only ding for this review is that the basket isn't metal. This isn't a huge deal but if your mounting them to a surface that isn't perfectly flat, you might be distorting the shape of the basket and causing all sorts of problems. Aside from that, these are pretty amazing for the price.
Pros:
Cons: Plastic basket

Alpine R-S65.2 with stock head unit
Crutchfield customer from Tehachapi, CA on 7/31/2020
2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
I put the Alpine R-S65.2 in my rear doors of my Silverado crew cab to replace the stock speakers while using the stock head unit to power them. They were great upgrade with nice tone and clarity, but they need to be pushed with an aftermarket power amp to make them shine. I will see how they sound powered next week!

Much improvement over the speakers in my 2016 WRX. Running off pioneer headunit power now but just ordered a jl 75w/4 amp to power them. High's are crisp as well as mid's. Low range is lacking, but these are door speakers and that is what a sub is for. Unsure if the amp i ordered will improve this or not but will update if does

Put these in the rear of a 2019 hyundai tucson with a 4 channel Rockford fosgate 4 channel amp.Set the amp to high pass on all channels and they sound amazing paired with audio frog gs62 for the front. These alpines still sound amazing all by themselves.The highs and lows make it sound like a concert in the vehicle.

This is a gift for my son who is rebuilding a car so I will not hear these speakers for quite a while. My only complaint is the Made in China disease in everything Americans want to buy. I have enjoyed Alpine products in the past. I hope these measure up - they are fairly expensive.

Not good sound quality
Kevin from Upper Marlboro, MD on 8/9/2019
2016 Lexus ES350
Purchased these to replace some Kicker Cs speakers. The kicker speakers sound great but I had some Alpine Spr 17s speakers back in 2008 that were incredible. Unfortunately these new model Alpine R-S65 are no where near as good. Good money down the drain I will be putting the kicker Cs speakers back in which cost me only $50.00 but sound aloft better than these expensive Alpines smh. P.S. I have a Alpine A70af 100x4 so it's not a under powered thing
Pros: Look nice
Cons: Sound bad

Excellent Tonal Qualities - Minimal Colouring of The Source Media
Crutchfield customer from Point Roberts, WA on 6/7/2019
Alpine R-S65.2's have met my expectations; crystal clear mids and high's, without the typical coloured mid-range of lesser made speakers. The bass is tight with what I am working with; I have yet to add a dedicated amp to really open these units up! I will try to follow up once this is done.
Pros: Exceptional tone qualities
Cons: None yet!
