Absolutely the finest 10 inch speaker available. Better than the much lauded vintage Jensen P10r (USA), without equal. (The contemporary Made in Italy Jensen P10r are rattle buckets) If you have something else in your amp, give these a try. You will not be disappointed. If you rebuild speakers, as I do then you will know the meticulous precise build of the 1028. Welded basket, not peened like contemporary Jensen (which causes rattles in many Jensen P10r) Shaped, hard felt Voice Coil cover. Not a thin felt disc like the Jensen. Eminence understands that the cone seam position is important and is placed 180 degrees form VC leads, unlike Jensen who places seam randomly. A magnificently manufactured cone, spider, basket and magnet structure insure a consistent tone and feel. A Super Reverb or Bassman loaded with the 1028 is a Heavenly Experience. The newer 1028 has been updated with a screen vent at the magnet structure, older versions have a metal seal cup. The vent screen allows for better VC cooling but I have never run into an issue with either if kept under the 35 watt rating. I personally prefer the metal cup because it insures the VC is protected from foreign materials or object coming in contact with the VC. Read full review

I installed 4 of these in my Fender Hotrod Deville 410 and they really brought the amp to life The clarity and sparkle in the clean channel was like someone took a cover off the amp I know everyone has different taste in the sound but they work for me, I have always like Alnico speakers better

I installed this in a Fender Frontman 25 and it really brought my amp to life i cant believe what a difference it made crystal clear on the clean channel and the overdrive channel sounds like a finely tuned muscle car.

These are my #1 speakers with most amps! I have 4 of them, and two of the older version with a paper former.
