I've run Onkyo amp's with Jensen speakers for the past 8-10 years. Love it but then others on here aren't impressed with Jensen. I think it's subjective. After auditioning many variants it was what suited me best. But cost was no object at the time and it did cost.

The latest Jensens I'm not so happy with, they went to a 6" cone from a 7" and they do sound a lot different. The amp on the other hand is great and if I were shopping for one now my first point of call would be Onkyo.

I should also note that the Jensens are floor standing x 4 + a fairly large centre. All the floor models have a built in sub so I have 4 subs all around me (even though sub bass is not directional it does make a difference).

My suggestion would be to wait a bit longer, save more cash and buy your audio gear once, you'll have it for a very long time if you buy quality.

Cheers,

Arkay.
