Description
Experience serious bass from Alpine’s BassRev (BRV) Series — engineered for drivers who want subwoofer-like low end from their door speakers.
Featuring Alpine’s High Amplitude Multi-Roll (HAMR) surround and extended stroke motor design, BassRev speakers move up to 30% farther than conventional models. The result is deeper bass, higher sound pressure, and clean, distortion-free output across all volumes.

Features
OPTIM Sync Ready: The BassRev speakers are designed for optimum performance when powered by the OPTIM8 DSP/Amplifier. Within the OPTIM software there are settings for each BassRev speaker model to optimize performance and bass output. The OPTIM8 extends the BRV-S80C’s bass response to 35 Hz.
Crossovers: No crossovers are included with the BRV-S80C; they are designed to use with the OPTIM8 DSP/Amplifier which has active crossovers.
Tweeter Mounting Options: The tweeters can be flush mounted using the supplied flush mount brackets and rings. Once mounted, the tweeters can swivel approximately 20⁰ to optimize imaging. The tweeters can also be mounted in factory tweeter locations behind factory tweeter grilles using the supplied stealth mounting brackets. The stealth brackets have a multitude of tabs used for different mounting configurations. When not needed, the tabs are easily removed. The factory location measurements in the chart below are generally minimums, with some tabs removed. (The three mounting tabs in the tweeter housings are not symmetrical, so there is only one correct position to insert the tweeters.)
