The C8R is the little gem in the Jensen Vintage series. It delivers a solid compact tone that defies its size. Extremely versatile, it finds application in small home and student amplifiers; but with a microphone in front, it is capable of transferring on tape some of the biggest tones ever. Not by chance, the vintage Fender® Champ® amplifiers produced with the C8R speaker are treasured by many players as a great studio tool.

Guitarist Description: Crystal clear tone with brightly shining highs. Responds to overdrive distortion with a bright fuzz lead voice.

  • Lows: Tight
  • Mids: Aggressive
  • Highs: Bright
  • Overdrive: Edgy

The Jensen C8R is not a bass speaker and the results, if used for bass, would not be suitable.

If the required impedance is 8 ohms, go with the Jensen Punch 8". Otherwise, Contact Ampeg about a replacement.

We do not recommend this Jensen speaker for bass. If you want to run bass and guitar out of one amp a PA speaker is a good choice. Please email us directly at: [email protected] for more information.

It is possible it would work, but with these speakers being voiced for guitar amplifiers, it may not produce the ideal sound.

The rated power should be used for determining the wattage rating of a cab. The "musical power" rating is a peak rating.

Just placed this Jensen C8R in a 1959 Supro "Super"1606, replacing the original Rola. I wanted to keep the Rola safe for the future.
The C8R is a great choice for this 5 watt gem. I suggest this is one of the most suitable and cost effective speaker choices for this type of amp (Champ style).
There is a beautiful natural and warm break up. Delighted with the purchase! So much fun to play with this amp now. Thanks Amplified Parts!

Big improvement in tone for my 1980 SFVC. The speaker is better than the original and just popped right - no mods required. Highly recommend.
