Alpine and Proline Car Stereo Partnered for a Very Successful Ocean City Jeep Week 2022

OCEAN CITY, MD (09.01.22) – Alps Alpine North America, Inc. attended the 2022 Ocean City Jeep Week in Ocean City, MD from Thursday, August 25 to Saturday, August 27 where they showcased exciting new vehicle-specific products designed uniquely for the Jeep driver.

The expansive Alpine booth set up as the gates opened on Day 1.

Alpine retailer, Proline Car Stereo from Brooklyn NY, partnered with Alpine and provided onsite sales and installations over the 3-Day event. The Alpine Event Truck and Trailer were open to visitors who wanted to chat with Alpine event staff and experience the latest vehicle-specific technology, all from the comfort of the air conditioned lounge area located in the trailer.

Members of the Alpine and Proline Car Stereo teams gathered for an image at OC Jeep Week.

The Proline Car Stereo Team consisted of 25 people with 11 installation techs and a shop foreman plus sales staff along with Proline Management staff Will Sullivan, Shef Sadik and Guytano Savino.

Sadik offered “Partnering with Alpine at OC Jeep Week was amazing. Our team of 25 made the 260 mile trip from Brooklyn in several vehicles and stayed in rental B&B’s. A large Ryder truck was packed with Jeep specific products and installation accessories plus tools and supplies. We have participated with Alpine previously at successful Jeep beach events and were prepared. On the Ryder truck we had a Proline banner that was probably 18’x10’ drawing attention to the booth. Everything worked out so well with strong sales and and installations with many Jeepers headed home enjoying their new Alpine systems we sold and installed. Working on site with Alpine staff members Roy Meyer, Eric Brooks and Colin Vargo was a real pleasure for Will and myself. We look forward to more in 2023 and Alpine puts their brand in front of consumers.”

Installations underway under Alpine tents.

Featuring the latest in Jeep-specific dash and sound system offerings from Alpine, a 2018 Jeep Wrangler was on-site for product demonstrations so attendees could experience the new High-Resolution i509-WRA-JL with a High-Definition, Weather-Resistant 9-inch screen and wireless and wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The i509-WRA-JL was intentionally designed with the Jeep driver in mind to visually emulate the design identity of the Jeep interior and retain the features Jeep drivers use the most. High-Resolution Audio Playback (96kHz/24Bit) can stream music from popular Hi-Res streaming platforms or directly from a smartphone for incredible music detail and high-precision music reproduction.

An Alpine PSS-24WRA sound system, with front 6.5” component speakers, 6.5” rear custom soundbar replacement speakers, 8” compact powered subwoofer, and 4-channel amplifier featured in-vehicle sound upgrade demonstrations as well as an Alpine Weather-Resistant PSS-SX01 Sound System mounted to the roll bars to demonstrate exterior sound upgrade opportunities.

Proline tents added bay space for installation.

Alpine’s 2015 Jeep Wrangler was also on-site with similar Jeep-specific solutions designed for older Jeep Wranglers, including the i509-WRA-JK, DVR-C320R, PSS-22WRA Weather-Resistant Sound System, PSS-SX01, and HCE-TCAM1-WRA Spare Tire Rear-View Camera and Light System.

“Switchback,” Alpine’s 2020 Jeep Gladiator, was also on-site with a custom truck bed build that features 40 motorized Bluetooth speakers that articulate for optimal sound positioning, and a tailgate designed to look like an early Alpine stereo, complete with a large, functional volume knob and six classic “Alpine green” buttons on the faceplate to control the automation.

Each Ocean City Jeep Week event participant received two raffle tickets in their registration packet, with winners announced Thursday and Friday after the Show & Shine event and mid-day Saturday from the main event stage.
