Jamo® D 600 THX® Ultra2 Series: Bringing Big Theater Sound Home

Highly advanced system features brilliant THX Ultra2 certified sound

Now, Jamo® brings that incredibly dynamic audio experience to home theaters with the D 600 THX Ultra2 series.

This highly advanced loudspeaker system consists of D 600 LCR left, center and right speakers, D 600 SUR rear surrounds and the D 600 SUB subwoofer. Unlike many THX systems, the D 600 THX Ultra2 is designed as a 5.1 system; a second subwoofer is not required to deliver accurate low-frequency THX audio.

The D 600 THX Ultra2 home theater system cabinets have a uniquely contemporary, graphic style that fits elegantly in modernly furnished homes. As good as they look, however, the real story is their performance. Few speakers meet the exacting THX Ultra2 cinema standard; these versatile performers are certified for exacting film soundtrack performance, but are equally capable at reproducing music tracks precisely as they were created.

The D 600 LCR is a 3-way closed design loudspeaker with two 6.5-inch woofers, two 3-inch midrange drivers and a 1-inch DTT tweeter, for clear, uncolored high frequencies.

D 600 SUR surround speakers feature a 3-way closed dipole design, with one 6.5-inch woofer, two 3-inch midranges and two 1-inch DTT tweeters. Conventional dipole speakers often provide poor bass reproduction, due to phase cancellation between their two woofers. By having only one woofer mounted in the middle of the cabinet, the D 600 SUR eliminates any cancellation effect to deliver full-spectrum sound. Identical drivers in the LCR and surround speakers provide the ideal balance and truly lifelike sound.

The 1600-watt D 600 SUB is an active 15-inch subwoofer in a sealed MDF enclosure. Motional feedback technology eliminates errors in woofer movement caused by strong sonic impulses, resulting in dynamic, detailed reproduction of even the lowest bass sounds. A touch interface allows users to select from a variety of settings.

According to Steen Michaelsen, Jamo director of marketing, the D 600 Series is the first product to aim for new European energy-saving standards. “Our aim is a standby power consumption of less than one watt, which is the new standard for 2010. The new, lower standby level will save consumers approximately $20 per year.”

The D 600 LCR left/center/right front speaker, D 600 SUR dipolar surround speaker and D 600 SUB will be available at select Jamo retailers this spring.

Jamo D 600 Series technology:
Motional feedback (MFB): When a large woofer is abruptly driven by a strong sonic impulse such as an explosion or the sound of timpani, it continues to move after the impulse stops. The MFB circuit compares the impulse to be reproduced with the actual movement of the woofer—if it moves unnaturally in relation to the input signal, the MFB circuit corrects the error before it becomes audible. Motional feedback also makes it possible to equalize the subwoofer to go deeper without losing precision, resulting in incredibly powerful, accurate bass.

Decoupled Tweeter Technology (DTT): DTT (Decoupled Tweeter Technology) is a mounting system specially developed by Jamo. Often, unwanted cabinet vibrations “cloud” or color the sound. High frequencies are particularly susceptible. By decoupling the tweeter from the rest of the loudspeaker, vibrations transmitted from the front baffle to the tweeter are reduced by more than 20dB, resulting in an uncommonly detailed and realistic reproduction of high frequencies.

Jamo® D 500 THX® Select2: Incredible THX Sound, Remarkable Size

THX-certified sound now available in speakers designed for smaller rooms

Until now, true THX® sound required a large dedicated room to accommodate the oversized speakers…and their often less-than-attractive cabinets. Jamo® D 500 THX Select2 home theater speakers bring the full THX experience to smaller rooms, with their compact size and stylish good looks.

The D 500 THX Select2 system consists of the D 500 LCR left, center and right speakers and
D 500 SUR rear surrounds. To complete a first class THX 5.1 system, the D 6 SUB is the ideal choice; the Jamo SUB 650 can also be used if full THX compliance is not required. Unlike many THX systems, the D 500 Select2 is intended to be a true 5.1 system; a second subwoofer is not required to deliver accurate THX audio.

In keeping with the Jamo brand tradition of beautiful Danish Sound Design, the D 500 THX home theater system cabinets are finished in a high-gloss black lacquer that will enhance any room. Inside, the story is all about high performance, with speaker drive units that reproduce film audio tracks precisely as the director intended—with every growling low and stunning high intact.

The D 500 LCR is a 3-way closed loudspeaker with two 5.5-inch woofers, two 3-inch midrange drivers and a 1-inch tweeter, enclosed in a compact 10.3-inch by 17.7-inch cabinet that is just 5.1 inches deep.

To provide the ideal THX effect, the D 500 SUR surround speakers feature a 3-way closed dipole design, with one 5.5-inch woofer, two 3-inch midranges and two 1-inch tweeters. Conventional dipole speakers often provide poor bass reproduction, due to phase cancellation between their two woofers. By having only one woofer mounted in the middle of the cabinet, the D 500 SUR eliminates any cancellation effect to deliver full-spectrum sound. For perfect timbre matching, all drivers are matching those in the D 500 LCR.

According to Jamo marketing director Steen Michaelsen, the D 500 Series is the best way to capture the big sound that pins you to your seat at the local theater. “Jamo D 500 THX Select2 home theater speakers bring THX movie soundtrack dynamics to virtually any home, without the need for a purpose-built viewing room. In addition, they’re equally capable of reproducing music from stereo MP3 files, CDs or audio DVDs.”

The D 500 THX Select2 home theater system will be available at select Jamo retailers this spring.

Jamo D 500 Technology:
Dipolar technology: Dipolar sound is distributed from both the front and rear of the speaker— in opposite phase. With Dipolar surround speakers add a ‘3D’ ambience to the surround effects.
