Make sure you buy the 3 year warranty or however long you can get... You'll need it if that thing lasts more than the manufacturer warranty...

Will you hate buying a replacement in six months to a year less than buying a service plan?

If so, then pick a better unit.

IMO it is a waste of money, you will be looking to replace it with a new unit as soon as the warranty is up, [1 year, unless you got extended warrant] it truly is a piece of crap, that you will have problems with.

That is the experience I have had with any Jensen product, the last place I worked was a Jensen dealer. 94

Alpine are great monitors. I love mine. I have had 5 alpine monitors, and have had problems with three.
Just said to make a point that you can have problems with anything you buy. As of now I will only run Alpine monitors.

As for the Jensen, It's an ok monitor. I know people that have had them for years and not have had a problem with them.

They don't have that great of sound quality. But for the price they are ok. Jensen got bought out by audiovox and audiovox has always made a decent monitor.

If thats all you got the money for go for it, just get the warranty
