Jensenannounces adramaticnew conceptin soundreproduction.

After 5 yearsof development,Jensen proudlyintroduces the OPCline of high fidelityspeaker systems.They're a revolution in sound you'vegot to hear and see for yourself.Five years ago, Jensen sound engineers went towork on a whole new concept in speaker design,OPC, the optimum performance concept. It wasbased on one simple idea. That each part of aspeaker system should be designed to helpreproduce sound the way it was recorded. Thesame highs and lows. The same midranges. In alldirections.Today, this concept has become a reality withJensen's all-new OPC high fidelity line. It's been along wait. But when you hear them, you'll knowit's been worth it.

OPC means distortion-free bass response.Other speaker manufacturers use cloth to connect theouter edge of a speaker cone to the speaker frame. Weuse exclusive Flexair® foam suspension on every OPCspeaker system for less restricted cone movement.OPC means truer midrangesOPC speaker systems come with tuned isolationchambers. They're specially designed to smooth outmidrange response and eliminate distortion resultingfrom mingling of frequencies in the speaker cabinet.

OPC means improved high frequency response.Our unique Sonodome® tweeter disperses sound at awide 170° angle to fill a room with brilliant highs...highs you're not used to hearing in home speakersof comparable price.OPC means sound control.Not everyone likes to hear sound the same way.That's why we putoptimum performance controlson the front of every OPC speaker system. Theseallow you to adjust the volume of bass, mid-rangeand high frequencies without altering the sounditself. Each control is color keyed to speakersystem components for easy reference(blue/bass; yellow/mid-range; red/high frequency).

OPC means functional design features.A specially designed bronzed-tinted dust cover shieldsand protects the optimum performance controls. It iseasily removed for ready access to the control paneland locks quickly back into place.OPC means greater driving force.Instead of the metal magnets used by many otherspeaker manufacturers, we use super-powerfulSyntox-6 ® magnets for greater activation of voicecoils.OPC means longer life.We're so proud of the way we built these newJensens that we offer a full 5 year warranty.If anything goes wrong with your Jensen OPCspeaker, we'll fix it free of charge (including parts,labor and all shipping costs).OPC means improved music blend.For true sound reproduction, a speaker mustdivide sound from an amplifier into high, low andmidrange frequencies. Jensen found a way to dothis better than anyone else. The CompTrac®crossover network. It's computer-designed tomore efficiently divide and channel sound.OPC means a whole different kind of speakersystem.Be sure and see the new Jensen OPC speakers foryourself. You'll agree—they're a revolution insound.
