Jenson 12" 520watt sub...any good???

Are these subs any good? I was looking for some 12s that weren't to much, and I saw these. Has anybody used them or heard them? I am also considering the pioneers and Xplod 800watt. The jensens were only 35 each though. Thanks

You get what you pay for. Save your money, be patient and get something else.

If you dont care about clean bass and just want your car to kinda thump for a while I say get them. If you want something that will last and sound nice then save your money and buy something better. You can get an Alpine Type R for $105 and it is worth way more than the extra $70 you will spend.

Save your money

Trust me, when I tell you to wait and save your money. I have been in your shoes and made the mistake of purchasing cheaper components. That is why I am currently looking to upgrade my cheap Wal-Mart brand CD Head Unit. I should have waited and got a high quality brand name. I am not saying that the subs are terrible, but I know that you get what you pay for. If I were you, I would wait and purchase some high quality subs. You will be much happier :lala:
