    Why do Onken & other old enclosures sound so different?

    There are all these antique Altec, Onken, Jensen & other bass reflex enclosures that sound so different & have a certain magic with their huge & very shallow ports. Something has been lost as everyone has shrunk the openings & lengthened the bass reflex ports to increase bass. Some of these old...

    Voice of Music model 81 speakers (MA)

    Someone on CL in MA has these guys up for sale here for $65 (NOAF) From a thread posted on AK here They seem to be loaded with a jensen horn and woofer combination that would be solid for low-watt amplification.

    Unknown model Knight Speakers

    I just recently bought a nice set of Knight Speakers that have Jensen C15NF woofers in them along with a large Jensen horn tweeter and possibly a super tweeter. They are great speakers besides one of the Lpad (I think) knobs is very touchy on both speakers and they are also missing the piece of...

    ID and worth of this vintage gear

    http://imgur.com/a/OSmYJ (sorry for the bad quality of images) Sadly, I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to audio equipment. I'd appreciate if someone could help me identify this gear and estimate what it is worth. There are: - 2 Jensen 15" drivers marked "Concert Fidelity RSC Jensen"...

    All these speakers - my head is spinning!

    Hi all, About a year ago ( or slightly more) I got back into Vinyl and vintage audio in general. Since then it has been a rollercoaster of amps, receivers and most of all speakers. And this forum is where I get most of my information about the equipment. Pouring over the reviews and opinions...

    Jensen OPC 24 and OPC 25 Speakers

    As a Kid growing up my parents had the Jensen OPC 22 speakers and I can still remember how great they sounded back then. The bass was deep the speakers looked cool with the plastic thing covering the control and the colored speakers. I was hooked as a kid when I first saw these and even more...

    Jensen System 500 Speakers - rare find and a nice surprise!

    Thanks to all of you and this forum, ever since I got into vintage stereo I cant pass up on interesting speakers. To keep myself from buying everything I come across, I try to stick with rather rare and unusual model. Plus only if they are sold cheap (under $100). I already made a thread about...

    Speaker Options for Jensen 700SL Cabinets?

    I came across a pair of Jensen 700XL speaker cabinets in beautiful condition, with no speakers in them, but I had to have them. My first plan was to buy original speakers for them, but have you seen the selling prices of these speakers? I just can't do it. So my question is, what non-original...

    Refinishing accent wood on Jensen era Advents

    Any tips or tricks for refinishing Jensen era Advents with the pecan wood accents? I found a pretty beat up pair of Advent Maestro II speakers cheap. I'm knee deep in restoring this and figuring might as well go all the way. I already refoamed woofer, stripped foam off front baffle and...

    Jensen Model 5 - HELP!!

    Hi All! Short term lurker here with my first post. Recently got into the audio game and started scouring CL. Found a set of speakers needing some TLC, Jensen Model 5's for $20 and thought they were good candidates for my first refurbish. Just went ahead redid the cabinets with Howard's...

    Been a while from my last post, but it seems like I picked up a bit of an rare little odd duck...

    I saw the speakers yesterday at a rummage sale and they were listed at $650 and spent a little time looking then over and the guy in charge of the electronics told me that everything was going to be 50% of today. then I spent some time looking at the other junk at the sale and circled back to...

    Jensen Spectrum 530

    Hello! I have a pair of these speakers, but one of the tweeters is blown. Does anybody know of a replacement tweeter that will fit/work? I can't find much on them, but it looks like it's a Jensen E-400 tweeter aka fried egg tweeter. Could be wrong, but this is what I've been able to find. Any...

    Advent 5002 refoam and restoration

    I picked up three Advent 5002 off my local CL about a week ago. The guy had three for some reason and didn't want to keep just one, so he gave me all three for $30. I've read about people scoring on these for a similar price, but I couldn't believe my luck. Needless to say, they need...

    Mini Advent Tweeter with de-bonded magnet -- reasonable repair?

    Hey all, I have a pair of Mini Advents that I acquired for free as part of a purchase of a nice pair of New Large Advents (A4) a while back. They had blasted foam surrounds on the little 5" woofers, but I ordered some replacements from Rick Cobb. I had some free time this weekend and finally...
