The “Get HAMR’D” summer promotion, featuring four different amplifier and subwoofer packages at various price points, will launch at authorized Alpine dealers in the U.S. on July 1 and continue through September 30.
Whether looking for an entry-level system or a ground-pounding sonic experience, every enthusiast will appreciate the powerful sound found in these performance-matched packages. All “Get HAMR’D” packages feature subwoofers with Alpine’s HAMR Engineering for ground-shaking SPL, cooler operation, longer equipment life and tight, accurate bass.
