  • Page 3: General Description

    General description The primary goal of the new Jamo C 80 speaker line was to create a unique show- case of Jamo competencies, as well as a loudspeaker that would ‘push the enve- lope’ in its category. Over the years Jamo products have been recognized worldwide for their uniquely Danish character –...

    The C 80 main speakers all feature Jamo’s Convex Tapered Vent. This high-fl ow, bass-refl ex port design ensures less turbulence and allows 5 dB higher SPL before port noise occurs –...
  • Page 5 C 80 CEN centre channel speaker is a 2-way, bass-refl ex system featuring two 6in HCC woofers and a 1in DTT/WaveGuide tweeter. The C 80 CEN can be placed on a speaker stand, book-shelf or on a TV (in the sup- plied rubber cradle), allowing the arc-shaped speaker to be angled towards the lis- tening position and, just as importantly, ensuring stable placement of the speaker.
  • Page 6 In other words, Jamo XBR combines the best of these two principles. Because XBR carries out the electrical phase shift on one of the woofers, the C 80 SUR are individually confi gured as a left and a right loudspeaker. In this way the perfect interaction with the front speakers is achieved i.e.

  • Page 8 frequency and so is the negative feedback. Consequently, the woofer receives less power in this area and, when combined with equalization the frequency response reaches down to an impressive 20Hz (-6dB). It is possible to make a subwoofer this size reach 20Hz just with pre-fi ltering/ equalizing, but that would create severe timing problems.
  • Page 9 The C 80 SUB is commonly connected using the normal line-level/LFE-input ter- minals. If you prefer speaker-level connections - or don’t have a LFE/Sub line level output on your amplifi er/receiver - it can also be connected via the high/speaker- level input terminals provided.
  • Page 10 Just let the automatic on/off circuitry do the daily job for you. Phase and Cut-off controls Place the subwoofer where it is most convenient - the controls ensure that the sound from the subwoofer can be adjusted to blend seamlessly with the sound from the rest of the speakers.

    This problem is solved with the Jamo WaveGuide, which is a carefully designed concave faceplate into which the 1in DTT tweeter is integrated. Doing so results in a uniform treble dispersion pattern from 10kHz all the way down to the critical x- over point at 2kHz and thus secures a seamless transition to the mid/woofer –...
  • Page 12 The absolute focus when developing this tweeter was to enhance its ability to re- produce the human voice, meaning the lower part of the treble range. Please take time to listen to the speaker’s unusually good ability to convey vocals – we think you’ll appreciate the excellent grip and body it exhibits.
  • Page 13 Combined with the natural rubber suspension, which effectively prevents vibra- tions from travelling back to the diaphragm, the result is a well controlled dia- phragm that operates without ‘break-up’ at up to 4kHz, well beyond its working range. Jamo HCC operates without break-ups incritical areas. Other speaker break-up.
  • Page 14 ‘faster’ sounding. This also prevents potential break-up points where the dust cap would have been glued to the cone. Sound pressure level from a speaker with Centre-Plug compared to one without, when playing at high play-back level.
  • Page 15 In addition, it prevents over- and under pressure behind the dust cap when the cone moves back and forth. The advantage is a more dynamic and precise sound reproduction. The aluminium Centre-Plug also has a cooling effect on the voice coil, providing greater power handling capability and very importantly, a stable sound reproduc- tion when playing loud.
  • Page 16 Compared to the conventional conductive rings in a magnet system AIC has the advantage that it is signifi cantly better at higher frequencies i.e. in the midrange (on voices) where distortion is most audible to the human ear. Even though they are visually identical with the mid/woofers, there is a small but signifi...

    Consequently, the cross-over in the Jamo C 80 is of a relatively simple – in the most positive sense of the word – low-order confi guration.
