Title: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: the vagos on June 11, 2010, 12:50:13 AM Hi friends I'm new in the Overtone´s Wolrd!
I did my HRM order but while i´m waiting to get the amp, i have to get a speaker cab and some speakers. My idea is 2x12 but i can´t spend too much money in Celestion Heritage G1265 and EV... I d like to buy something like Jensen, they are a little bit cheaper here in Europe. Somebody did try them? Another alternative? Thanks to all! Title: Re: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: Pickmaster on June 12, 2010, 06:02:28 PM Jensen jet Tornado 12'' - 100w neodymium spraker great for Overtone amps.
You can also try Jensen 15'' neo, also very good for this amp. Good luck Title: Re: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: the vagos on June 13, 2010, 04:51:50 AM Really thanks man! But it`s not too much 100 Watts each for a cabinet 2x12, i`ve not idea! Works well?
Title: Re: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: Pickmaster on June 13, 2010, 02:15:33 PM Two Torhados (16 ohm in paralel = 8ohm) will give you great lows and punch, also they are very light weight.
You can also try Celestion K-100 !!! they are like EV but much cheaper. They are heavy though. Title: Re: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: the vagos on June 13, 2010, 10:42:54 PM ;) Thanks too much, Sr. Pickmaster really you help me, i decide about Tornados exactly is that i`m looking for.
Cool man! Title: Re: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: the vagos on June 13, 2010, 11:00:26 PM uhmm, sorry man but i`ve a new dude, Nik talk me about the better is 16 ohm so i must to buy the 16 ohm speaker, conect them in paralell, and put the amp selector in 8 ohm? excuse me but i have no idea about speaker.
Thanks again Title: Re: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: Pickmaster on June 14, 2010, 08:27:13 AM Hi,
Probably Nik suggested to use full 16 ohm tap on the output transformer. Than you have to get two 8 ohm speakers and put them in SERIES, it will give you 16 ohm. Title: Re: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: johanare on June 14, 2010, 10:56:10 AM IMHO Jensens (tthe vintage series that is) are not suited for Dumble type of amps.
I haven't tried the new models from Jensens, maybe some of them are ok. How much do you want to spend? Check lean-business.co.uk for great prices on Celestions. G12-65 are £110 a price. Not too bad. Title: Re: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: the vagos on June 14, 2010, 11:31:17 AM Really Celestion´s speaker have a nice price here, now i back to thinking again the celestion option :-\,
Sure Pickmaster nik suggeted that, but i didn`t mean, so thanks because i was wrong, i have to buy 8 Ohm Speaker. Somebody tested Celestion G12 H 65 vs Jensen Tornado? Title: Re: Any Jensen Speaker for HRM Overtone? Post by: Hayden on June 14, 2010, 11:54:48 PM Hi
Just to clarify - If you have two 16 ohm speakers/cabinets. You can plug each of them into the OTS and switch the OTS to 8 ohms. |
