What happened to JBL and Jensen items


Recommended Posts

Posted

I used to hear a lot about JBL, Jensen, and JVC brands when I was a kid and now I'm starting to wonder what happened to them, do they even make good products anymore?

New build coming soon. [center][url="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/3/sigtoo.jpg/"][img]http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/9541/sigtoo.jpg[/img][/url][/center]

Those of you who are putting down Jensen, have you actually used any of their equipment? I doubt it, or you'd know its decent budget-level stuff. Sure its not DC/Sundown/Pioneer level stuff, but neither is the price. Its not the greatest available, but if you're on a tight budget, you could do a lot worse.

Starting all over pretty much which the gear listed...lost almost everything I had, including my life. Never take life and what's in it for granted.

No, and most of us wouldn't because we read from other people's experiences before buying stuff. Researching saves time.. and money.

IF I was on such a tight budget, i'd go audiopipe/lanzar and the like before jensen. They just bring nothing to the table.

continue?

I mean nothing against his opinion.. but he shouldn't take such offense to ours either. I just felt the need to followup and explain myself with my reasoning for not liking them or giving them a second of my time.

Ah now I understand why there is no versus thread.

I owned a pair of Jensens blue 6x9s when I was 14. They were really good imo, except for the fact that the paint came off it and it faded. I'm not on a budget, I just wanted to know if the companies I knew when I was a kid still made good products...which obviously, they don't.
