Introduction
Welcome to the exclusive circle of Jamo C 80 owners! This manual will give you a
quick overview of how to set up your speakers in your room. For more in-depth
information about the technologies used please refer to the C 80 technical descrip-
tion and www.Jamo.com.
First, a word of advice. After setting up your speakers for the first time,please allow
at least a couple of days before you start fine-tuning the sound.This will serve two
purposes. Firstly, you will get a sense of what these speakers sound like. Secondly,
it will give time for the speakers to run in: the tonal quality of this design changes
slightly after the first couple days of playing music.
Please remember the guidelines in this manual are only recommendations. There
are no hard and fast rules about setting up a pair of speakers.When you get down
to fine-tuning their performance in your room don’t be afraid of experimenting:
any speaker will sound different when moved a few inches. Feel free to change the
speaker positions and move them around the room to determine your best listen-
ing position and sound.
Always rely on your own judgement to determine what sounds best.We do...
Enjoy!

General tips for setting up speakers
Stereo triangle
You can use the stereo triangle as a good rule of thumb when placing your speak-
ers.This means the distance between the speakers should be the same as the dis-
tance from your listening position to both speakers; in other words an equilateral
triangle.
Damping
If your room…
a) doesn’t allow you to get the speakers the required distance from the
back and side walls or…
b) has highly reflective surfaces (i.e. glass windows or bare plastered walls)
or…
c) still doesn’t sound quite right
…we strongly recommend that you ‘damp’ your room’s critical surfaces. This can
be done simply by adding curtains, furniture, bookshelves and so on. A damped
surface is almost always preferable to a hard reflective surface.
Depending on the placement of the speakers, room size,sound reflecting surfaces,
furniture, etc, it is entirely up to you how you fine-adjust the placement, angling
and damping.Remember to take your time and use your ears.

Toe-in
To achieve optimal sound, try experimenting with ‘toeing in’ the speakers towards
the listening position.This achieves two things:
a) Fine-tuning of the tweeter level, which is more sensitive to reflections
than mid- range and bass output, treble is more directive than midrange
and bass frequencies.
b) Secondly you minimize side-wall reflections,thereby reducing colouration
of the sound.
Some may not feel a need to toe in the speakers at all, while others may find the
best solution is to point them directly at the listening position. See what suits you
best…

Connecting
The C 803, C 805, C 807 and C 809 speakers comes prepared for bi-wiring.
Please note the following three possible setups.
Single-wiring
For single-wire connections, the terminal jumpers should be attached as shown in
the illustration.
Bi-wiring
If you’d like to use a bi-wiring arrangement, make sure you remove both the termi-
nal jumpers before you connect up your loudspeaker cables like so…
Bi-amping
In a bi-amped system, make sure you remove both the terminal jumpers before
connecting up your cables as shown.
If you choose this option,we recommend you use identical amplifiers to drive both
the bass and treble units.

Spikes
After the initial placement of the C 80 floorstanders, you might consider using the
supplied spikes instead of the built-in rubber feet.To fix them on, we recommend
that you gently lay the speaker on one side and screw in all four spikes together.
Before you do this, however, be sure to place a couple of thick towels or similar
underneath the side of the speaker. This will prevent accidental scratching to the
surface of the speaker.

After screwing in the spikes, gently bring the speaker to its vertical position. Once
upright simply adjust the spikes to give optimal support.
Using the spikes will give the very best support and sound quality. If you want to
spare your floor surface from being punctured however, you can place the indent-
ed metal washers underneath the spike.
A warning:be careful when using the spikes with the indented metal washers – you
don’t want to get your finger trapped between the two!
Whichever option you choose, avoid “walking” the speakers if you need to move
them to a different position… especially on hard wood floors!

C 803 / C 805 / C 807 / C 809
Placement
For an optimal listening experience, we recommend you place these speakers a
minimum of 2m/6ft from each other, a minimum of 0.5m/1.5ft from the back wall
and at least 1m/3ft from any side walls.

C 80 CEN
Placement
For an optimal listening experience, we recommend you place the C 80 CEN close
to your screen,either just above or just below it.The speaker is magnetically shield-
ed so it can be placed close to a normal CRT-type TV.
Make sure the C 80 CEN stand/cradle is as stable as possible to ensure the optimal
sound from the C 80 CEN.
Angling
To achieve optimal sound, the included speaker cradle is constructed in such a way
that you can angle the C 80 CEN directly towards your listening position.Try experi-
menting with different angles until you are fully satisfied.
