Review 1 of 3

Price Paid:  $69.00 from Radioshack

Summary:
This is the best deal going for a cheap 5.1 setup. I bought myself 2 pair of the Jensen C1 speakers and Jensen CCS center cannel. The total was $222.00 canadian. One thing about this set is that the construction may not be the best, but the sound is top notch. I even run without a subwoofer with this setup.

Strengths:
Deep clean bass clear highs wood construction rear ported great imaging

Weaknesses:
No insulation in box wire clips are cheap

Review 3 of 3

Price Paid:  $52.00

Summary:
I bvought thes as a step up from a pair of CJR Jensen's that I had in a second 2 channel system in my computer room. These have more bass than the CJRs and cleaner and more natural vocals. The top end is not as pronounced as with the CJR. The have great imaging for such an inexpensive speaker ($50-$60 per pair). Actually a better top end than a pair of B&W bookshelf speakers I have in my HT setup.

Strengths:
Very clean, detailed top end for an inexpensive speaker. Decent and tight bass output for a 6 1/2 inch woofer. "Titanium tweeter" !

Weaknesses:
Thin wood sides - Made in China. Small, cheap looking speaker wire connectors.

Similar Products Used:
RCA small bookshelf speakers with a "dipole" tweeter, B&W bookshelf speakers ( 602 or 603 ?? )
