I have to agree with the fact that some Jamo-models are indeed outclassed by brands like B&W and Wharfedale's.

The point of this post was to check what the audio-community thinks of Jamo.
I find that Jamo indeed works with cheaper materials and does less R&D than lets say B&W. But they do manage to be cheaper and still provide a true hifi-experience.

I myself once had the choice between B&W 600 series and Jamo 7.7's. I chose the last one. Because the 600 series, to me personally, are ridiculous. They lauched the series with an enormous publicity to be the more affordable range of B&W. They are indeed more dynamic than most speakers but only in the high's and mid's, they completely lack bass-authority. B&W noticed this! What happened? B&W put them in a HT-configuration with bookshelfs as surroundspeakers and a big ugly subwoofer added to give the necessary bass.
I don't hate B&W, on the contrary! I love the 700 series and the nautilusseries but they simply a little to costly for my taste.
Now the Jamo 7.7's have enough bass, the high's and mid's are very dynamic aswell, thanks to fiberopticfabric-cones.

But that's just my opinion apparently?!
