Jamo c 800 Series | made for more serious listening C 809 C 807 C 803 C 80 CEN C 80 SUR C 809 / C 807 MaDE fOR SERIOuS lIStENINg The flagship of the C 800 series is the C 809. And here, we're not just talking about another high-quality speaker from Jamo. This impressive 3-way speaker is the very embodiment of Danish Sound Design - superbly resonant cutting edge sound technology enclosed in beautifully designed cabinets of the highest quality and finish. One level down, you'll find the C 807 - an exceptionally melodic speaker. The C 807 is a natural choice for the front speaker in any high-end surround system, yet it can also deliver a great musical experience performing as a stereo speaker - either with or without the C 80 SUB. Because they incorporate identical high-frequency and midrange sections, the choice between Jamo C 809 and C 807 ultimately depends on how much bass you desire/ require and the dimensions of your listening space. The wide range of Jamo options ensures an ideal match for your room and your personal taste. C 803 MaDE fOR MORE Even though it's small, the C 803 is designed big. This test winning speaker has been built using Jamo's unique convex tapered vent, which reduces unwanted port turbulence and virtually eliminates port noise. C 80 CEN SCREENED fOR thE SCREEN Because the centre speaker in the series is magnetically shielded, it does not create any image distortion when if it is used in combination with a traditional CRT television. The C 80 CEN comes with a practical rubber cradle, which makes it possible to place it on a shelf, or even directly on top of your TV. With the rubber cradle, it is easy to adjust the angle of the speaker in relation to your listening position. C 80 SuR BRINg thE CINEMatIC EXPERIENCE hOME With a perfect surround setup, the sound should emerge around the listener in a diffuse manner, rather than come from a number of localizable speakers on the wall. In state-of-the-art cinemas, this surround sound experience is obtained by using a large number of speakers on the side and rear walls (often 10 or more). But in a domestic setup most people are naturally reluctant to install a number of surround speakers in their living room. When creating the C 80 SUR, the benchmark was to convert the performance of a full-blown cinema system into a serious 2-way dipole surround speaker with two 155mm/6in woofers and two 25mm/1in tweeters with Dtt. In a relatively small dipole surround speaker for domestic use there is, however, an inherent cancellation of low frequencies. Jamo has solved this problem in several clever ways: the C 80 SUR maintains a dipole radiation of frequencies down to approximately 250Hz (treble and midrange), with bipole radiation at lower frequencies. This ensures a perfectly diffuse soundfield with full bass reproduction. It's the cinematic experience in your home. 34
