Reviewed by: outerfroggy1
Year: 2002
Model: jensen 6x9 tri-axial
Price Paid: $79 at Wal-Mart
Summary:
I purchased these 6x9's while working at wal-mart so i got a really good deal on them. they are tri-axial so they have very full sound to them. the bass is not what i would call ground shaking but hey thats what subs are for right? overall the mid-bass and midrange are very good for a pair of speakers that are less than 100 bucks. the tweeters are also very clear but i would still compliment them with some in-dash tweeters to get the full effect. if your looking for some cheap speakers to stick in your daily beater car/truck i would recommend these for the price.

Strengths:
Good mid-bass, midrange
Clear highs
Price

Weaknesses:
Low frequency bass
Very high frequencys aint as crisp as a stand alone tweeter.

Similar Products Used:
kenwood, pioneer etc.

 

ooh many thanks!

i guess they are sorta ok then? hehe middle of the road kind of product..

 

Yeh I would say that too judging by that review, but the best test is when you power up your stereo and get the sound through them and if you think they are ok then I would settle with them for now
