Summary: I once looked at one in a store
Review: Since the reviewer J-D "Audiophile" thought he would leave bad feedback based on his/her own stupidity and an experience with another retailer than amazon... Here is my review based on the fact that I once saw this product in a store.
It was a black, square box. When the sales dude turned it on, it actually went boom-boom. It was transcendent. Buy this.

Summary: Extremely pleased for the money.
Review: 69.95 with free shipping and no taxes! I've been looking around for a sub in the 150.00 - 200.00 dollar range for the past couple weeks. I've been to Bestbuy Circuit City ECT... Anyhow I have been very pleased with the performance of the Jensen as apposed to the other models I've looked at. It seems to do, and sound, just as good as the other models, but for a lot less money. On the down side there is a flaw. When it goes into "power saving" mode it does let out a sound that is amazingly like a fart. So far it has only happened after I turned the Stereo off, and as long as it only does it then, I'm fine with it.

I wanted a sub woofer so I could get that rumble when certain things happen in a movie, and it looks at though the Jensen will follow through. I would not buy it for midrange/sub to go along with satellite speakers for music.

Over all it is a great sub for the price. If you put the name infinity, or JBL on the woofer it would sell in the 200 dollar range.

Summary: Sounds okay when it works.
Review: I purchased a factory-recoditioned JPS12 from an amazon store about a month ago. It arrived quick enough, the box was in good condition.

I didn't have a chance to fully test it out until the 20 day, and around that day I realized it was damaged. When the subwoofer was plugged in, but no audio signal was sent - it burped every 5 minutes or so. Contacted the store I bought it from (J&R) said they couldn't refund my money because it was past their 12 return day period. Called Jensen support, and they verified the item was damaged!!! AAARRGGGHHH.

Will never buy recondition Jensen again.

Summary: Great Sub for the price
Review: This subwoofer offers alot of boooom boooom (excellent bass) for the cheap price. It sounds as good as the high end subs. The only bad thing I have to say about it is that when the unit goes into sleep mode it sounds as if it lets out a fart. Apart from this, I highly recommend this sub to people with smaller budgets.
