S 506 HCS 3 S 426 S 404 Jamo S 506 hCS 3 NOthINg tO hIDE The Jamo S 506 HCS 3 system can outmatch every comparable competitor in terms of sound quality as well as design - this system is in a league of its own. With more than 750 watts of music power, the system offers excellent volume for money. If you add a SUB 210, you will get almost 1000 watts total music power. The S 506 has a waveguide-coupled 25mm/1in tweeter and two 165mm/61/2in midrange/woofers, which ensure strong clear vocals and instruments as well as powerful well-defined bass. The midrange/woofers are mounted in separate, fully isolated enclosures in order to minimise negative interference. The individual tuning of each of the cavities eases the load on the amplifier and result in a more tuneful, low-distortion bass. The very thick baffle provides a solid foundation for the best possible performance from the 2 carefully engineered mid-woofers and further increases the stiffness of the already very strong enclosure. The S 506 is fully equipped for optional bi-wiring and biamplification, allowing the enthusiast to "tweak" the soundperformance to his or her needs. The centre and satellite speakers come with supplied wall mounts, providing versatility when it comes to placement options. With removable front fabric grilles and exclusive high gloss finish, the S 506 HCS 3 system will fit nicely into almost any interior. Jamo S 426 RaISINg thE BaR The floorstanding Jamo S 426 reaffirms our decades-long commitment to continuously raising the bar for value for money in loudspeaker design for even the most demanding home entertainment needs. Beneath its quietly classy exterior beats the heart of a warrior, fuelled by the exclusive, proprietary technologies that set Jamo in a class all to itself. Available in Black Ash, White Ash and Wenge, Jamo S 426 lives up to its inviting exterior with a two-way driver configuration. The dual 5 ½" bass/mid drivers are built on a powerful, highly efficient magnetic system which contributes to the speaker's extraordinary power handling of up to 140 Watts peak power with extremely effective heat dissipation for long-term reliability. Carefully integrated with clear, shimmering high frequencies from the fast, ultra-transparent dome tweeter, the smooth, yet powerful bass/midrange of the Jamo S 426 delivers a credible illusion of sonic realism that will thrill and surprise even seasoned, discriminating listeners. Jamo S 404 MaXIMuM MINIMalISM Finely draped in a beautiful high gloss black or white finish, Jamo S 404 takes minimalism to new heights with a distinctive visual identity tailored for the way we listen to sound today. In keeping with accelerating trends toward miniaturisation in personal media (phones, MP3 players, laptops, etc.), Jamo S 404 utilises a robust, reliable 5½" low-frequency driver mated with a 1" soft dome to pack a punch well beyond its size and weight, with elegance and eloquence. The Jamo S 404 can be positioned on a flat surface such as a desk, bookshelf or floor stand, and is suitable for wallmounting using the dedicated bracket included with the speakers. The rigid non-resonant MDF enclosure is solid enough to ensure potent output at the lowest possible frequencies. Jamo S 404 offers supremely balanced, smooth and natural sound with clear rendering of all the subtle details that breathe life into music and movies with a firm, natural quality beyond the reach of similarly sized competitors.
