The slimline main speakers come in a high-gloss black or white lacquer which is designed to help them blend in with modern TVs and interiors.
The D500 LCR (£300 each) is a three-way design intended for left, right and centre channels and there’s also the D500 SUR (£250) surround. Both models stand 26cm tall, 45cm wide and a sylph-like 13cm deep, and are capable of meeting the THX frequency response requirement of 80Hz-20kHz.
There’s a choice of two subwoofers: the D600 SUB (£1,200) is a sealed-box design with a 600W amplifier and 15in driver with motional feedback. It has a DSP-based control system offering Boundary Gain Control among other functions via a backlit touchscreen control panel.
The alternative is the SUB 650, which uses a smaller 12in bass driver. It’s available as part of one of two packages: three D500 LCRs, two D500 SURs and a SUB650 is £1700, while the same system with the D600 SUB is £2,300.
The Jamo D500 is available now.
