Alpine Electronics Now Shipping A 300-Watt Complete Sound Upgrade for Jeep®

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (Dec. 20, 2021) – Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. is now shipping the new PSS-24WRA 300-Watt Complete Sound Upgrade Package for the four-door, non-amplified 2018 and Up Jeep® Wrangler and non-amplified 2020 and Up Jeep® Gladiator.

Top-Off Performance for Your Jeep®

Now Jeep® owners can get top-off sound for cruising down the highway or weaving through off-road trails with the PSS-24WRA. This 300-watt complete package has 5-channels of powered sound that replaces the factory Jeep® system.

The system includes two sets of 6.5” weather-resistant mid-bass drivers and 1” weather-resistant tweeters that replace the front and rear soundbar factory speakers tuned for the unique cabin environment of the Jeep® Wrangler and Jeep® Gladiator. Powered by a 4-channel power pack amplifier, the speakers are designed for powerful, top-off performance that’s unhindered by weather, wind, or other noise while driving. An 8” powered, compact subwoofer adds deep, accurate bass that grounds the sound system.

System Compatibility

Building a complete sound system has never been easier. The PSS-24WRA is compatible with the i407-WRA-JL 7” Multimedia Receiver and the X409-WRA-JL 9” Weather-Resistant Navigation System with Off-Road Mode. A vehicle-specific T-harness is included for installation with the factory radio into compatible, four-door, non-amplified 2018-Up Jeep® Wranglers or 2020-Up Jeep® Gladiators.

Plug-and-Play Installation

Alpine takes the guesswork out of installation with vehicle-specific speaker connections and pods designed for the Jeep® Wrangler and Jeep® Gladiator. Tweeter adapter plates use the original factory tweeter locations. Vehicle-specific mounting brackets are included to secure the 8” compact subwoofer and the 4-channel amplifier under the passenger seat, without drilling.

The PSS-24WRA is now shipping at a MAP of $1999.95 and is available at Alpine Authorized retailers
