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!

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.
