Excellent speaker for an excellent price

S. Walker 30.07.2021

I built a 112 cabinet for use at home with heads and as an extension with smaller speaker amplifiers, and I needed a speaker to go in it. This seemed like a great option. It is.

It has that very classic American speaker sound to it, warm but bright, and breaks up really well. It chimes in a way Celestions do not, like the original Jensens of which it is a reissue.

For bright, bluesy rock this is exactly spot-on, has that vintage sound that suits anything with a bit of twang. Also cleans up nicely for jazz/funk/pop. With the right amplifier (i.e. probably a Fender type) driving it, it is excellent indeed. Plays nicely with overdrives and light distortion but I don't think I'd be using it for metal.

It was well packaged, easy to install, and the dimensions on the Thomann site were accurate, I was able to use the diagram to CNC-cut a perfect-fit custom baffle before the speaker had even arrived.

I think you would have to spend quite a lot more money before you found a speaker that so clearly outperformed this one.

I was not satisfied when i first heard the speaker sound,but i putt it in a 1x12 cabinet and tried it with a 5E3 type amp and after about 1,2weeks it was sounding very good,and then with Fender Princeton reverb 65reissue,and it sounds fantastic compared to the stock Jensen C10R that sounds so bright i could not put the Treble on,alwais on Zero. With the C12Q i can put the Treble on 6. Wery classic fenderish powerful clean to dirty sounding speaker in the Fender Princeton reverb 65 reissue.

Report

very articulated sound

StillRaW 09.02.2016

I have bought this to replace the stock speaker that was in my vox ac15c1, the speaker gave nice overall feel to amp sound it is now more articulated, clear and punchy. i have compared the amp now to a reverb deluxe fender, altough the power tubes are different, but the spe4aker give indeed the sound characteristic of the amp. very crucial part of the sound shaping. now with this speaker i can do fenderish sound as well as old marshal sound, ofcourse i play blues and rock (SRV, hendrix, john mayer etc)
the amp itself is very versatile and especially now with this speaker. i think it is a perfect match.
you might opt however to go for the 16 ohms, i personally took the 8 ohms to have the options in case i want to use it in a fender amp. watts wise, i think it is of for the amp 15 watts it is also recommended watts wise jensen website. regards
