I just ordered mine. I’ll respond backSo the Alpine SPV-65-JLT has been available for a little bit, looking for any comments from anyone that has installed them. Wondering if it is worth it compared to just the SSV adaptor and some components.
Are these an upgrade to the 8.4 Alpine system or very similar to the speakers already in the sound bar for this system?I just ordered mine. I’ll respond back
Got it. I too was Wondering if it is worth it compared to just the SSV adaptor and some components.... If I did this I would think I would need an upgraded/additional amp to full enjoy the Alpine speaker upgrade. Any thoughts on a simple easy amp upgrade to go with these.https://www.alpine-usa.com/product/spv-65-jlt_jeep_soundbar_upgrade_kit
It's a kit to upgrade the soundbar speakers to some nice component 6.5" without having to buy the SSV adaptor. Supposed to be plug and play with a little trimming.
I’ll be running these off of an Alpine KTU-445p amp.Got it. I too was Wondering if it is worth it compared to just the SSV adaptor and some components....

I’ve been reading that people are using it in the Alpine upgraded systems, however, yes, it is designed for the non-Alpine systems. My Jeep did not come with the Alpine system either. I’ve built up from the stock system.Nice, but manual says not for factory amplified system, so guessing this is not a plug and play upgrade for the Alpine with sub systems.
Kinda curious how these sound compared to the stock Alpine system; is it any better or pretty much the same?I’ve been reading that people are using it in the Alpine upgraded systems, however, yes, it is designed for the non-Alpine systems.

Me too. If I already have the Factory Alpine system would these really make a noticeable difference. I would hate to spend that kind of coin on these and no material sound difference.Kinda curious how these sound compared to the stock Alpine system; is it any better or pretty much the same?
It would be funny if these were just the same factory Alpine speakers for those who didn't originally go with that option. If that's the case or they're not significantly better, there are way better aftermarket options for less money.Me too.

Happy for surfwagon as they appear to be working well and make a substantial sound difference on the non-Alpine factory system.
Agreed. The factory Alpine works well for me now.It would be funny if these were just the same factory Alpine speakers for those who didn't originally go with that option. If that's the case or they're not significantly better, there are way better aftermarket options for less money.
