Jensen Loudspeakers 12'' Tornado Classic 100 - 16 Ohm

The Tornado 100 is the first Jensen Jet speaker loaded with the 2nd Generation Neodymium magnet design that has since been extended to the Tornado Stealth line. The Tornado speakers are voiced similarly to AlNiCo speakers, unlocking their full tone potential. The Tornado 100 is an evenly-balanced speaker: clear, smooth, and well-defined with a solid, powerful bass range. Excellent dynamic range and headroom make the Tornado Classic 100 eminently versatile, from clean to crunch and lead tones. It is designed to suit open back, closed back, and ported cabinets.

Crystal clear, clean tones, accented by shimmering highs with each note sounding tight and well-defined. When presented with overdrive distortion, the notes remain well-defined with lots of bite.
