Report Review for product Speaker - Jensen® Jets, 10", Electric Lightning, 50W

I purchased these basically because I’ve always admired Jensen’s as being a great speaker. I needed some nice speakers for a 210 cab and decided to stick with Jensen’s. I spent the extra money and went with these vs the falcons. The cleans are fantastic, clear and has exceptional voicing. However when any sort of overdrive is engaged the characteristic of this speaker drastically changes. It loses the bassiness somewhat and the treble is like a harsh ice pick. It was absolutely the worst overdriven sound I’ve heard from a set of speakers. When you adjust your amp/pedals to make it sound halfway acceptable then your clean tone is muddy, bassy and the speaker carries flub because of how much you have to turn the bass up to accommodate the loss When pedals are used. Even slight overdrives are the same. Where any pedal would get the sweet warm sound these speakers turns it into a nightmarish display of harshness. I hate to leave anything negative but I have to be honest here. I avoided the p10r for this reason but even they sound better. I gave it 1 star because the cleans sound great but even a clean boost sends these speakers into some sort of high end harshness that’s not even pleasant. Maybe the 12s sound better but I’d avoid the 10s
