Jensen C12K's haven't been OEM in the blackface re-issues in quite some time now. It's been all Eminence for the last several years.

No way! Arjay giving out wrong info?? WTF?? :wink:

DRRI used to come with Eminence, it's all Jensen now. Mine (2010 I believe) had a C12K too.

Even the Bassman and SRRI come with Jensens, why I have no idea :roll:

Well my '93 DRRI (first year of issue) was Eminence-equipped and I know that the spec speakers in all of the re-issues bounced around between them and Jensen over the life-cycle of these products.

What's the fooking difference, though -- they both sound like utter crap!

:mrgreen:

Thanks again everyone. I have no doubt that my "new" amp was a floor model, but we seem to have established that it is normal for the transformer to get very hot in use which was my main question. Having said that, any odd behaviour from it and I'm taking it straight back :D

Oh the shame of it all. :( :( :(

What's this world coming to? :| :|
When someone says a DRRI sounds like "utter crap".

:lol: :lol: :lol: "priceless" man "priceless"
