P10Q!!! This comparison is awesome thanks! I have the P10R on my bassman ri and they sound awesome in it as well, but then I have the weber 10A100 based on the P10R on an amp and they lack clean sparkle... have the Weber 10A125 based on the P10Q on a Princeton Clone and they are awesome!
I recently replaced 1 of the P10Q speakers in my 66’ Tremolux. It now has a P10Q and a Falcon. The combination is fantastic. It sounds great clean and now has a strong sound with a drive pedal too. The Falcon was only $50. Great speaker for the $$$....
I'm a big fan of the P10R, and have three, but I admit that the Q sounded a little fuller, more beefy. I think the R might have a little more cut in the mix with the little extra brilliance, but it would be interesting to hear them in a live situation together to know for sure. My early 2000's Fender "Custom" Vibrolux Reverb combo really cuts through well on medium size gigs with two P10Rs, at 40 watts RMS, so that is why I like them, and it makes the amp sound nice and clean too, very 3D and hi-fi of sorts. I just picked up another one for only $20 in very good condition to put into one of my two Fender Super Champ XDs. I might put an Eminence Ragin Cajun in the other one, but the stock speaker is well broken in and sounds pretty good, having been out to about 30 long gigs over the years.
Hi! Don't bother with the Emi RC, RamRod etc unless you're playing in a very very loud band. They are good speakers but don't expect the delicacy of light-coned low-powered alnico Jensens. And yes, while the P10R is great in multiple speaker amps, the P10Q is better in every way. I've tried all your options and the Q is the best of them all. Another good choice if you're going for high power is the WGS G10C. That is a fantastic ceramic speaker with vintage tone and a huge punch.
@@serwy06 not yet, but I have a loose Fender empty 1x10 cab and a P10R., so I might get around to trying it before too long. Long story, just busy lately, not getting to it yet, ha.
Anyone compared an old C10Q with the new reissues? I have a 6x10 silvertone with a blown speaker and want to keep as original tone as I can. Are the new ones a waste of time if pairing with old C10Q's?
I don't hear much difference between the P10Q and the C10Q except the ceramic sounds a bit smoother so that's great news for me because I just bought a tweed Bassman that has a quad of c10Qs in it, the guy that sold it to me bought it that way. So far I like how it sounds, and if I could not look inside of it, I'd think they were alnico speakers. Probably the same cone used for both the alnico and ceramics.
Someone needs to do a tutorial on how to play that lick. 😁 Out of all those speakers, I like the Tornado the best. It had the best balance of articulation and bite. It handled everything very well. Of course, its a 100w speaker, too, so maybe what I'm noticing is a speaker that's being pushed the least. I believe its the most powerful out of all those examples. I could see banks of those powering big "stadium" horns as sound reinforcement.
Very nice shootout. I really enjoyed it. With monitor headphones I can listen clearly all the differences. Now the only problem is I have to get my hands on a C10Q...
I have the 10"Tornado, but I never found out if the 100watt that they claim It to be is for a 100watt peek or overall voltage. Does anyone know? The back magnets seem too small for me
I just put a Falcon 10 in my Vox AC10C1, and it did indeed smooth out the top end. Still has loads of clarity in this amp, just no ice pick. And the amp now sounds great with OD pedals too.
The R definitely sounds thinner especially after hearing the others.. sounds great and will probably end up with one. But, the Q sounds pretty good too..
I have had one in a tweed Champ. It is on the warm side, which can tame bright single coil sounds. No speaker breakup whatsoever, so it stays tight (as far as the speaker goes...) and full. Pretty good volume also, so it will make the amp louder than just using a little 8” speaker. Also, the speaker has a low profile, so it will fit into a Mojotone sized Tweed Champ cabinet, with a baffle cut to fit the 10”. It will fit using the standard Mojotone 760EX power transformer, and an upgraded Classictone 15 watt SE output transformer. Fyi, it’s a tight fit, but nothing touches each other. Another speaker that fits in this situation, is the Eminence 1028k, which has more sparkle than the Tornado. I have this speaker in my Champ now, and it sounds pretty good...
I have 2 P10q in my 1966 Fender Tremolux... They sound great for clean and light dirt. Side by side vs my 1966 Pro Reverb with original Oxford speakers the P10Q sound more articulate....
I also used to have a P10Q pair in my 72 Vibrolux Reverb and clean it was fantastic until I stepped on the dirt pedal, any dirt pedal for the matter. The highs were buzzy and the mids disappeared from the tone. But yes, clean the P10Q is awesome.
Years back, I bought four Jensen P10R's and gently broke them in, in my 1964 Super Reverb. They sounded horrid! Could not carry any bottom end through them at all, and they just generally blew. I changed them out for Weber ceramics ... much better.
I’ve always much preferred P10Qs for the same exact reasons. Not much low end, tiny headroom, small tone. Unless of course you play in a loud band blasting 120db and you just don’t care if your 4x10 is balanced or not. Haha
My ears enjoyed the Jensen P10Q . Every time . Many thanks for this upload .
Years old, but "outstanding work". This gives a real side by side on these and the differences are clear. Thanks,
Great work! Very helpful arrangement. I like the P10Q the most, it just sounds right.
This is a really helpful comparison because you play chords and single notes which is necessary for making an informed decision. Thank you!
P10Q!!! This comparison is awesome thanks! I have the P10R on my bassman ri and they sound awesome in it as well, but then I have the weber 10A100 based on the P10R on an amp and they lack clean sparkle... have the Weber 10A125 based on the P10Q on a Princeton Clone and they are awesome!

Doing the Lord's work here.
Eventually people making comparison videos will figure out this is needed for every video.

To mix IS a great Idea !
This video helped me to choose the C10Q for my Princeton Tweed clone, thanks.
Good choice! I put them in three different small combos and they have just gotten sweeter with time.
Gosh great comparison. I opted for non of them. But nice to hear such a great review
I liked C10Q
P10Q and C10Q. Can't tell which one I like more.
¿Porque no los dos?

@@arispap12 Good word and advice, thanks.
@@arispap12 thanks for the information
Did you installed the p10r on super champ xd? Ive a vibro champ xd here and thinking in the same mod
@@serwy06 not yet, but I have a loose Fender empty 1x10 cab and a P10R., so I might get around to trying it before too long. Long story, just busy lately, not getting to it yet, ha.
Thanks to this vidéo, My top 3 : P10Q , C10R, P10R, on this order
Gorgeous playing
Great vid, to my ears the P10Q sounds best.
Anyone compared an old C10Q with the new reissues? I have a 6x10 silvertone with a blown speaker and want to keep as original tone as I can. Are the new ones a waste of time if pairing with old C10Q's?
You should update it and add the P10R-FEN and the Blackbird 10"
I don't hear much difference between the P10Q and the C10Q except the ceramic sounds a bit smoother so that's great news for me

Hello.
For Fender Superchamp?
JENSEN C1OR
JENSEN C10Q
Or .........
Thanks.
juan evening it really depends on what type of music you play.
juan evening I would go with C10Q or Tornado if you need more headroom.
Aris Papadopoulos what is the diference Jensen C 10 R C 10 Q?
better than the original?More powerful?
I don,t Know..
Thanks
Very nice shootout. I really enjoyed it.
With monitor headphones I can listen clearly all the differences.
Now the only problem is I have to get my hands on a C10Q...
I have a Gibson Skylark with a Jensen Jet. Sounds great when it breaks up.
I have the 10"Tornado, but I never found out if the 100watt that they claim It to be is for a 100watt peek or overall voltage. Does anyone know? The back magnets seem too small for me
The magnet is neodymium. It means smaller size and more magnetic strength.
I wonder if the falcon is good for taming those amps where everyone suggests clipping brightness caps
I just put a Falcon 10 in my Vox AC10C1, and it did indeed smooth out the top end. Still has loads of clarity in this amp, just no ice pick. And the amp now sounds great with OD pedals too.
@@andreasocarroll5390 thanks! Been really interested in this speaker
The R definitely sounds thinner especially after hearing the others.. sounds great and will probably end up with one. But, the Q sounds pretty good too..
I have a custom built '59 Bassman replica with (2) P10R and it's awesome.
i wounder if the tornado will sound good in a 5 watt fender champ clone instead of the p10r
one way to find out...
I have had one in a tweed Champ. It is on the warm side, which can tame bright single coil sounds. No speaker breakup whatsoever, so it stays tight (as far as the speaker goes...) and full. Pretty good volume also, so it will make the amp louder than just using a little 8” speaker.

Another speaker that fits in this situation, is the Eminence 1028k, which has more sparkle than the Tornado. I have this speaker in my Champ now, and it sounds pretty good...
I have 2 P10q in my 1966 Fender Tremolux... They sound great for clean and light dirt. Side by side vs my 1966 Pro Reverb with original Oxford speakers the P10Q sound more articulate....
I also used to have a P10Q pair in my 72 Vibrolux Reverb and clean it was fantastic until I stepped on the dirt pedal, any dirt pedal for the matter. The highs were buzzy and the mids disappeared from the tone. But yes, clean the P10Q is awesome.
How would you compare your vibrolux to say a Princeton or Deluxe reverb. Thank you!!
I guess I'm the only one that hated the Falcon and loved the C10Q.
I agree, Falcon lacks detail. C10Q is vintage fender tone. Tornado is my favorite.
Nope. Came here to check if the C10Q stood up to the more expensive options and came away thinking it's the best
I came away with the same opinion
how much the prize of jensen speaker 12
I have a Fender Bronco amp with an 8" speaker, and have a 10" P10R to replace the 8" with it, is it a good idea?
The tornado sounds best to me. Most balanced of the lot.
Tian Lee I agree. The tornado is a great speaker.
I have two falcons, this monster in my amplifiers🤟
Loved it!!! Please include the MOD 10 next time??
I like the MOD 8, in a 16 ohm pair, for small apps.
P10R set. alnico. WARM & TRUE to touch. Can't be any better unless you want extreme metal.
P10q sounds more harmonious and the one following it was good too. Had to close my eyes and lay back then the p10q sang out.
Wow Falcón for those cruncchs sound and also cranked!
great idea thanks!
P10R for me. Clearer all around.
Top job Aris!!!
C10Q All day long
P10r or c10q
If you want the classic blackface tone, C10Q...
Great video.Thx
MrStfmg you are welcome
Jensen P10Q!!!!!
P10Q all the way.
P10R ... C10Q close second....

P10Q's sound best
neo and falcon
P10Q for old school tone and tornado for everything else for me.
Blackbird
Original ;)
Thank you.

To bad. I like to compare clean sound. Not distorted.
