xtrachewy Posted September 26, 2010 Author Posted September 26, 2010 (edited) Not best quality but you get some idea from somebody's uploads - BUMP. {watch below is HD for better SQ} {hmm...not sure I like how the ringing bell was mixed....} Edited September 26, 2010 by xtrachewy
Steve M Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 (edited) Hey chewy if I can comment, this is a great speaker truly analytical and accurate sounding, on a good valve amp musical and different from ML-1 and Proac 1SC to my ears, more refinement due to the better quality Seas Excel magnesium drivers with silver voice coils and more accurate bass due to the larger 6.5" bass driver and larger box ...can't beat physics at the end of the day regardless of what the fanboys say! Just my 2cents worth ... Regards, Steve M. Edited October 16, 2010 by Steve M
xtrachewy Posted October 15, 2010 Author Posted October 15, 2010 Thanks Steve for your input - I've compared them with my previous Dynaudio Special 25 and the Jamo were not shamed. I may end up keeping them but like so many I'm selling to fuel other upgrades.
jackrinse Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 A bump for you xtrachewy. Thanks for the pm.
speedgod66 Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 hi just wondering if you have the jamo stands for the concert8?also are these the d830 or concert 8 and if so how old are they? my next question is in regards to the centre channel how transparent is it and does it communicate voices naturally etc considering it does not use the same drivers as the concert8 and does it seem to be seamless across the front 3 channels. i have the NHT XDA system and at the moment use no centre channel so was considering using this centre channel or maybe your 2 concert8 combined as a centre to maybe match seeing they are seas drivers -of course there is the problem that your speakers are ported so i could be wildly off base here with my attempts to make a similar sounding centre channel. the next option is perhaps get another XDA system or just not use a centre channel appreciate your reply speedgod66
xtrachewy Posted November 28, 2010 Author Posted November 28, 2010 G'day Speedgod66 - will PM/respond tonight more completely Thx for your interest.
madamesimplifi Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 Are these like all the CDs that I have bought off you? i.e. in unbelievable OCD condition?
xtrachewy Posted December 6, 2010 Author Posted December 6, 2010 Yep - these are as new - I really should get off my arse and take some decent pics....
