Review 2 of 8

Price Paid:  $400.00 from eBay

Summary:
FANTASTIC Loudspeakers! I purchased these speakers just based on some reviews and comments on the Jamo brand - and some research into the Classic series drivers and crossovers. I am a recording engineer in Toronto with over 13 years experience mixing and editing voice and music. (http://www.bitstreamstudios.net) Basically, I was searching for a larger 2-way or 3-way system to judge my mastering and mixes on. I wanted a full range loudspeaker - BUT I didn't want to spend thousands. Yes, I wanted it all... My search started with Magnepan MMG's. I was very pleased with their sound and fantastic "air" quality. However, they were SOOO particular with placement that I could not trust them for imaging and bass balance. Next came PSB Platinum M2's. PSB's Platinum series are truly, truly wonderful, but far, far overpriced. From there, I moved on to Acoustic Energy AESPIRIT 309's. Another great set of loudspeakers - very flat in their response. I kept those for over a month before deciding to look elsewhere. Finally came the Jamo Classic 10's. They put a smile on my face on every listen (and still do)! The Jamo Classic 10's are the finest sounding speakers of the bunch I tested - and among the best I have ever heard. (The BEST I have EVER heard were Duntech Sovereign's, followed by a nicely broken in pair of PSB Platinum T8s -- good job, Paul ; ) But I digress... The Jamo Classic 10's have an incredibly open soundstage. A real 3-dimensional quality that allows the loudspeakers to disappear, revealing just the music. The bass response is far reaching, but does not feel loose. Using my NAD T753 I get the response of a sub without the loose bottom of some powered subs. Bi-wiring with top quality speaker cables really helped with these speakers. Jamo definitely did a great job on their crossover. The mid drivers sing with beautiful detail while the clarity of the tweeters and richness of the 8" bass drivers full in any gaps. Actually, the lack of "gap" is what impressed me most about these loudspeakers - especially from a 3-way design. Since Jamo does not make them anymore, the only current speakers I can compare them to are the PSB Platinum T6. Yes, they sound that good! If you disagree with my assessment of these speakers, then please let me know (admin at bitstreamstudios dot net). I'll probably buy your pair of Classic 10's from you. : )

Strengths:
Very FULL-RANGE sound. Bass response with wonderfully deep tones and not out of control. Mids are fantastic and clear. The high end is not overly coloured and smooth. Very full range sound with little or no frequency gaps is a testiment to Jamo's crossover design.

Weaknesses:
Speaker cabinets not fitted with isolation spikes. I think this would help tighten up the bass even more.

Review 3 of 8

Price Paid:  $900.00

Summary:
Got this pair for 4 months now, and never been disappointed yet. From a 12 hours party with hip hop to a quiet night listening to some jazz, it always please my ears, even with mp3s. For those that say it has muddy bass or just too sharp, try to bi-wire it, you will see the different. Strongly recommend to anyone.

Strengths:
The tight bass, sharp treble and clear mid with a good price. Also has nice design.

Weaknesses:
Hmmmm... nothing.

Review 5 of 8

Price Paid:  $620.00

Summary:
I just love the bass and clear sound it produces. No other speakers can give as low frequency as this speaker does, you hear every detail of the bass in the music, which gives you a very good pleasure.. You'll like it very much, you won't believe your eyes...

Strengths:
Beautiful low frequency bass, non disturbing tweeters, nice finish

Weaknesses:
Does not like too much power, but has enough power..

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
