About the Alpine SPC-W84ACRA2-2
From our tech experts at CEN
A complete system package for the VW Crafter and MAN TGE: a six-channel DSP amplifier with a matched subwoofer, built to work with the vehicle’s factory wiring.
Who it suits
VW Crafter and MAN TGE owners who want a proper system rather than piecemeal upgrades. The DSP is what makes it work, because a van cabin is an awkward shape and processing corrects for where you actually sit.
Our tech experts advise
The parts are matched, but the result still comes down to the tuning, done in the vehicle once everything is in. We install and tune these at our Beeston workshop. Installation is priced per vehicle, so get in touch with your make, model and year and we will confirm what it needs and what the work involves. See car audio installation.
