Jamo Studio S 803 Bookshelf Speaker Pair Black

Product Information

I currently use Denon's x8500h AVR for my 2 sets, however, in the past I have used the Parasound Zone Master 2350 and the Parasound Zone Master 2 to power them. From the opening bars of The Night Belongs To Mona, it’s obvious that the S 803 does things a little differently. None of the corners on them are particularly perfect, but one of them definitely seems like it was hit by something. Dual S 803 Dolby Atmos ® ready bookshelf speakers, a perfectly tuned center channel speaker, and two S 801 speakers for surround sound add up to and incredible yet compact home theater.

The speaker says that 80 watts per channel are recommended, I'm running on a 75WPC receiver and I feel like they could use a little more punch. I know they have to be there if you want to add the atmos speakers, but they put so much effort into the look of these speakers, and that really takes away from the clean look. If they are going to be used for surrounds or background music then no it doesn't matter too much if they are mounted horizontally. Switching it up a bit, “Royals” by Lorde has a good amount of bass, and these speakers definitely show that off well. When you boost the treble, you boost the bass, you recess the mid-range, and you do that because, well, quite frankly, a lot of people like that sound.It includes a pair of studio-quality headphones, and a guide to getting the most out of your session, and a few other necessary items. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. In small rooms, early reflections figure prominently in what is measured and heard in the room so this curve may provide insights into potential sound quality. Early Reflections Directivity Index (EPDI): is defined as the difference between the listening window curve and the early reflections curve.

Then consider the Jamo S 803s — these attractive bookshelf speakers feature a 5" woofer and 1" soft dome tweeter for clear, natural sound that won't take up much space in your room. For proof, I provided SPIN data with EQ applied via my miniDSP; using 9 bands of EQ to smooth the on-axis response.Throughout the song you can hear it very well since it stands out, and on these speakers it really stands out. The 25mm soft dome tweeter sits in a shallow waveguide, which is finished in a light walnut effect that nicely complements the coarser grain of the wood veneered plinth. Audio products have been voiced like this on purpose throughout the headphone industry, even in a high-end industry, for a very long time. That little bit of tipped up detail and the 803 HCS system has that to give and lends just a little bit of a certain kind of sharpness to dialogue, which helps or aids in dialogue coming through just a little bit more clearly.

Listening to “Ain’t No Sunshine” by Christy Baron shows off the tone and texture of the bass quite well. In my main living room, which has hard floors and some rugs, they can sound a bit too bright without any EQ. If you’re planning to use subs, you get the best of both worlds because the subs can handle the frequencies below 50 Hertz, and 803 can do an excellent job of producing the mids and the highest.

If you need sides/rears for a theater setup, or you just need to hang them on a wall behind your desk, those hooks would make that a lot easier. Jamo used to make pretty decent speakers (or maybe even really good ones, depending on one's opinions).

I think so, there are black rubber feet, i did not peel it but when i put a neodymium magnet it sticks to the rubber feet covering something metal, screws possibly.
