Exquisite Design, Inside and Out

The all-new ultra-modern R-Series amplifiers are beautifully designed and constructed with machined alloy detailing and premium finishes throughout. Internally, An all-digital dual post-filter feedback loop is added for unmatched accuracy and control, while minimising internal noise.

Top Panel Controls

There when required and hidden when not, gain and crossover controls have been relocated beneath a sleek brushed alloy cover panel atop the amplifier for convenient, yet discreet use. Furthermore, mounting feet are now integrated into the chassis of the amplifier for improved aesthetics and installation simplicity.

 

Single Sided I/O Terminals

A considered design from every aspect, all speaker I/O is consolidated onto a single side of the chassis. This not only makes positioning and connecting the amplifier easier and more flexible, but also allows for beautifully clean installations.

Compact and Powerful

The R2-A150M is Alpine’s most powerful amplifier in a highly compact chassis, outputting up to an astonishing 1500W RMS at a 1Ω load. Despite this high power output, the R2-A150M’s small footprint results in greater installation flexibility normally not possible from amplifiers of this specification.

 

Trickle-Down Technology

Using “trickle-down” technology inspired design, and performance cues from the High-Resolution Alpine Status systems, the Next-Generation R-Series Amplifiers feature Alpine’s exclusive circuit design architecture that will take this legendary system to the next level in sound performance.


Control your Subwoofer

The optional RUX-KNOB.2 remote bass knob controller (sold separately) connects directly to R-Series amplifiers, providing easily accessible subwoofer control to make bass adjustments on the fly to enhance your listening experience.
