Probably the cheapest and most accurately rated amplifier I’ve ever seen

Jensen has always done okay amps never too impressive but they get the job done.

Crazy to see a Jensen put out more than rated when so many other budget brands fall way short of rated.

At that price, I really was dumbfounded that it did better then the rating on each test. Very cool, Jenson...

Not gonna lie, saw this in Walmart and was like: “damn, it look good! Wonder if Big D gonna test it?” No lie!!! One week later...

After seeing your review on this Amp I ordered it from Walmart and picked it up the next day and I was not disappointed at all. This little Amp rocks my 10* alpine type r like nobody's business. And the rgb lighting just makes it even more impressive. It really is a super good deal. Thanks so much for your videos and keep up the good work.

I like how the channels are equal in power also.

Ah, Jensen, the first brand I owned which I still own; A1000 amp and a pair of Jensen XS10 subs. Sadly I haven't used them in many years. Not the best stuff ever, but it bumped for a first cheap system and I had a lot of fun building boxes / testing stuff. I'll always have a place in my heart for Jensen.

Heck yeah !! Love these amp test. Showing real powers so we can make an educated buy. Thank you for all you do Big “D”

The V pattern, or what I call the smiley face. Makes everyone smile.

Thanks Bid D. I've been waiting on this one. Color me impressed. Big D has "led" me to buy a new amp

I got one of these before I saw your review and test of it and I am pretty pleased with it. It does have a low noise threshold but once you get it dialed in it's good bang for the buck if you need to go super budget.

Who would’ve thought it? Jensen putting out an accurately rated amp at a great value while Precision Power races Boss to the bottom. Strange times but its great that there are still good values to be had. Credit to Big D for putting this out there.

While Jensen car audio has always been a budget brand, even bordering on being flea market gear, people forget that they have quite a long heritage dating back to the 1920s and they make some really stellar guitar speakers and pro audio gear. Good to see they are releasing something compelling these days in the car audio game.

I used Jensen when I was younger because it was in my budget. I had 4 amps at one time and never had any issues with any of them. I have nothing bad to say about them. I feel they make better products than many other cheap brands.

Doesn't seem like a terrible deal, good for rear speakers. For these ultra cheap amps it might be worth adding a test to measure hiss level

I like the cheap dual amps. I love stuff that is mostly overlooked by others.

Just bought this amp after watching your video!!! 👍👍👍. Used it to replace a factory amp in my FJ Cruiser! What a beast for the price

Pretty cool little amp. Jensen has always been a good budget choice all the way back to the 90s.

Congrats on hitting 200k! Keep the great content coming. What you do is much appreciated.

I have to say what ever company owns duel/jensen is impressing me lately.

That’s actually quite a great deal comparing to other amps. It’s like a big game to see how long companies can drag out Stone Age tech in car audio, home audio , pro audio have been leaps and bounds ahead of car audio for eons and there honestly is no excuse . Think I’ll go buy that Jensen 1200 monoblock at Wally World now.

People talk a lot of shit on the name but I honestly can’t recall a Jensen amp that didn’t deliver rated power reliably in all my years. I use to bridge the old blue 100x4 models into 2 ohms. We’d ride around with a bag of ice on top of it to keep it from shutting down. Never did manage to kill it. They deserve a little respect.

That would be a good little ampnto wire up my subs in the house! Nice to see a cheap amp have real numbers listed. Thanks for the video man! Keep em comin!

I just traded with a friend, that had this amp, new in the box. He bought it awhile ago, and got out of audio, when he and his wife had their first child. I swapped him a very nice, baby stroller we had. I wanted a decent 4ch for my wife's budget build, to run her 6.5" components, but this 2ch came at no money, and it'll run her front stage just fine. Plus, mounting under the seat, will add a lil glow..she'll like that lol.

The amp on my boat running my 8" Kicker tower speakers kicked the bucket this weekend. I ran to Walmart and bought this little amp to get me out on the water......Damn!! This little amp with the Bluetooth features rocks for sure.

This channel is great helped me understand the amp ratings dont mean a thing and tune by ear for best affect!

Who remembers those metallic blue Jensen XS 10s you could get at walmart??? Damn decent for the price!!!

I'm an old school Jensen person. Remember the old (circa 1990-2000)? Nice to see they still sell good stuff.

When your walmart amp does better than kicker products lol

i was very skeptical about buying this amp thanks for reviewing it

Awesome! Thank you! It just goes to show that you can't judge an amplifier's output based on the fuse on the side. According to the "rule of thumb" that amplifier should only be able to put out 250 Watts. There's no doubt it's efficiency helped a lot with that.

I've been following you since the "Big D Wiz" days early on in your channel. I love your reviews. I think we are around the same age. I was around in the late 80's and all through the 90's when bass was king. LOL. I'm still around now. You and I also dig the old school Phoenix Gold and Punch amps etc.

Congrats on the 200K subs BigD! That amp is at least fun anyway. It stepped up! Stay safe mates!😊👍🏻😷

I have to admit I'm impressed. Definitely would recommend over that Boss amp that's always the Amazon best seller!

I was on the fence about buying this but after seeing your video, I got it! Your opinion helped out immensely. Thanks buddy!

Can u test the 1000 watt Jenson 4 channel from Walmart

sold my Dual XPR82D with a little Power Bass PS10 sub in a simple sealed enclosure to a friend of mine. Told him to go buy a cheap schoshe wiring kit from walmart and he asked which one I told him to just get the 8 guage kit. wired it up for him and even installed his stereo and some cheap soney speakers in his doors and I must say I've never really set the amp up in my own personal vehicle for sub use and that little shit BANGS. He was impressed by the little thing and he is quite happy with it. got him a little rattle outside now .

Jensen stepping up their game. 30 years ago I wouldnt put a Jensen anything on a go-kart.

Looks like they added the Dynamic numbers from 2-4ohm and bridged for that 600 watts.

Loving the extra edits, with the expanded screen

FYI Jitterbug makes smartphones now. Grandma can definitely control the bass boost on her phone whilst listening to beethovens overture on her amplified buick sound system

I was literally just looking at these today at walmart lol. I'd like to see the "1,200" monoblock Jensen they have also.

I was looking for an inexpensive amp to power some bass shakers on my sim race rig. Paired with an existing power this amp fits the bill nicely. Thanks for the review. Picked up 2 before the inevitable price hike. This isn't the first time your content has helped me out. Thank you

Who would of thought a Jensen Amp would out perform a big name amp . Great for Jensen. Thanks for another great video Big D your still my favorite.

I was just waiting for the end to see if he would blast it at half ohm mono 😂😂 big D we want to see what these little cheap amps can really do at the "not recommended" loads it will get u more views

Thank you big D for testing this amp I'm currently running the four channel in my motorcycle and this thing really handles I'm running for TX 69 skar audio and this amp is doing everything it's supposed to sounding good clear I love it thank you for the dino I wouldn't have known about it if you didn't show it here on your channel thank you again Big D

I just finished the install of this amp on my StreetGlide. I'm using it to push two 6.5" Kicker Co-axial speakers in the front fairing. I'm very happy with the sound.

I have bought a few Jensen products and I have not been let down at all, very good bang for your buck

I bought the mono block and the 4 channel of the line up. I had to return due to no gain adjustments or crossover adjustments. Glad to see they would have done rated power but I need that adjustability as the speakers I had were rated for less power. I just couldn't trust an app to keep it in line. Great video as always. Keep up the great work. Always love watching the amp dyno videos.

Great vid. I have this amp pushing a 10” kicker under my back seat in a Nissan Frontier. Very impressed, got it all at Wamalart. Dual head unit, I also have this amp in the 4 channel pushing kickers in the doors. For the money it is a great system that flat out rocks Joe Bonamassa, black label society, clutch. I put both amps behind receiver in the dash. There is that much room after thin head unit. They get plenty of air. I crank Tool up everyday and still going.

Nice to see and old name like Jensen putting rated down! I put Jensen Special speakers in my guitar cabinet back in the day, even ran Jet Lightning in my combo amplifier. My first 6x9’s in car audio was Jensen

For the price for this amp that comes with a dsp...its a steal. ...this amp shouldn't have any cons just all pros

Just bought two of these based on this video. I have always bought big names. Thanks for the video BigD!

A review of the 1200 watt 91rb version would be awesome!

Hi big D. Years ago when I was scraping by for my work truck sound system I recycled what I had. In my 81 GMC Heavy Half I put Jensen 6 x 9 3ways in the corners behind the seat facing forward & 6 x 9 2ways aimed under the seat from behind & connected to the Infinity 3001's in the dash. The tuner was a Technics unamped head unit that came with front & rear dedicated power amps. (Both with built in eq's). At 1st I was really disappointed until I was able to dial it in after playing with it. Damn it sounded good. Sometimes certain things just work out unexpectedly. Don't be too worried to experiment. Take care my big bud!

i rocked a jensen amp in the early 90's

Great videos, I watch them ALL. I even watch some many times over.👍 like this one.

Jensen used to be great back in the 80"s. I had 2 Jensen 6x9's and they were very clear sounding. They were so loud you could hear me coming down the street, 2 blocks away (as per my GF's mom).

I bought the ne and I must say a lot easier to control because it’s Bluetooth and it’s awesome looking and it runs my 12” kicker really good

The "v pattern" in the pro audio world that's known as the "disco smile" the reason for the "disco smile" is Equal Loudness Contours or the "Fletcher Munson Curve" awesome video as usual!

Yeeeeeeeeeah V pattern for the win! Daaam this thing is pretty rad

Just bought one of these for my underseat subs. Perfect power and price.

This bit of kit is just as strong as it needs to be seems pretty solid. The channels are remarkably even too.

These cheap amp videos are great

Jensin xs 12" subs were my first subwoofers! We all have to start somewhere! Thanks for everything you do Big D!!

I'm impressed, being that Jensen is no longer made in america nearby me in Shiller Park Il. Like most other American companies selling out to China, it's a shame to say there least but at least Jensen here is selling what your buying and then some, thumbs up

I have a jensen 4 channel 400 watt amp from Walmart for 20 years and still going strong. Paid $135 back then, well worth it, pushing Jbl 6x9s and a 10 inch Polk Audio sub.

I just bought the four channel version XDA94RB thanks Big D for the two channel review

Bridged 2 ohm test?? I always stay till the end for those and it wasn't there. 😭

I like you can specifically enter numbers like cross over etc that’s like so much easier. Whether they are ttrue to their numbers is another question. But it did it’s rated numbers! Awesome!

I had a jenson. Was my first amp and that darn thing is still going. Currently used as a sub amp running at 2ohms, which we all know we are not supposed to do on these bridgable 2 channel amps 😂. But hey it hasn't killed it yet after all this time

For $60, with high level inputs and decently rated power, this is one of those gems for cheaply adding a sub to a stock system.

I was secretly hoping at the end you’d do a 2ohm bridged test.

Go Jensen doing rated power! Thanks Big D, you da man!!

Years later after watching this video I decided to head to Walmart and get the 1200 watt version of this, I AM ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDED AT HOW GREAT THIS AMP IS 108 BUCKS EVERY CENT WORTH.

Yet another great video Big D!! A huge thumbs up for the zoomed in display on the amp dump. For those of us that watch on our phones it makes it a LOT easier to see. Hmm, I might get 2 of these for my shed audio system. One for miss/highs and the other for a single small sub. I wonder if power output at 1khz is about the same as 40hz? Hmmm......

And I'm still running the two channel and four channel Dual amps that Ryan dyno'd. I mean I've hammered them. Can't kill these things. And they sound good!

Here a few years later! After I saw this I just had to get one to play with. I absolutely love this little amp. It’s put together nicely and never lets me down. I ended up putting it in the back of my RX7 when I imported it, it fits perfectly in the bottom of the vertical spare tire well. I have it driving a Bose ported box out of a 370z or something, with two little 2ohm neo drivers. It’s perfect. Super efficient. I love it and so do the others that have heard it. My hatch drains have clogged twice, and soaked the amp. I’ve pulled it and dried it twice, and it still trucks on. Completely discreet and super lightweight.

Thanx man! I bought this for my work truck to power cheap components but having trouble with tuning it.. I'll dig into some more of your content.

You make some fantastic videos, love the quality you put into them. However I am thinking it might look better if you put the zoomed in view of the amp dyno screen over the the screen

Have always had respect for Jensen stuff. Old and new.

Thank you for enlarging that!

that kraco hat lol. i forgot they existed. man they made some cheap stuff back in the day haha.

Wow, Jensen staying with the times. I've never really preferred Jensen speakers, stereos, or amps, but they've never given me any particular issues and always performed as advertised. Like I always say, it's hard to argue with results. This would be a really nice amp to buy on a budget and bridge it down to power a single 10 or even a low power 12 for those who are just looking for some slight bump or more depth to their particular style of music. Good on ya Jensen!

You got a winner here.

Very awesome little amp. I will agree thats a sister on the dual there Derek. Those dyno ratings showed that man.

I've had good results from some Jensen products over the last couple decades.

Tnx 4 all ur time and hard work, letting us know what to buy and what not to buy.

I've been running this little thing pretty damn hard, wired down at 2 ohms bridged. It's not rated for it, but it handles it no problem if your gain is set properly.

One of the few amps which have little variance between ch1 and ch2. Gotta laugh at those which are almost 10 watts different.

I saw this amp at my local Pepboys and autozone :D LOL And thank you for the conformation on the amp dyno awesome..........

I love the testing you do. Maybe you could run the voltage at 13V instead of 14.8V to give us a more real-world result?

I thought it said "BIODEGRADABLE" on the front when it first appeared, which sounded like a useful feature for a crap bargain basement amp. But then, lo and behold, it easily meets its modest rated power, has great features, and even looks nice. Turned out to be a winner!

Word on the takin' a break and havin' some fun.

I had a Jensen mono block and it was CEA2006 certified. I currently have this variation mono amp and believe it's also certified. It's just running a single 10" dvc power acoustic mofo sub at 2ohms happily in a labyrinth box. Believe the amp is 1ohm stable also.

Hey Derek - Your work is great but is there a chance you can do a video explaining what things mean in layman terms? Like clipping, dynamic burst, the abbreviations and numbers on the dyno. Sure we can Google it but sometimes it's best hearing and seeing...like a kids book with pictures 😉 It might help newbies to car audio and people like me who lost touch but trying to get back into it. Thanks mate!

So, same price as the Boss Riot "1100" watt, and puts out more power? Guess I'm getting another cheap amp

just got 1 for $35 used its working great as a highs amp for my doors love it so far
