User manual JAMO D 590

[. . . ] We do, however, recommend that, to benefit fully from your investment, you adhere meticulously to the instructions for connection and placing. For one thing, this design offers a large cabinet without the loudspeaker seeming big; it also damps standing waves. Further, owing to the rather considerable depth of the cabinet, the treble and mid-range units are placed so far from the back wall as to prevent reflections. The cabinet sides are made in a brand new sandwich design consisting of a MDF board with longitudinal grooves and an fibre board. [. . . ] The unit has a large magnet and a heavy voice coil with a diameter of 25mm. All these properties lead to an open and precise sound reproduction with unsurpassed attack. As the design of the unit also makes for very low distortion and excellent reproduction of a large frequency area, phase errors in the important midrange area can be eliminated, since this entire area is reproduced by one single unit. This principle has been used in the Jamo D 5 series, in which the midrange units cover the range from appr. In D 570 / D 590, two midrange units have been used to control the sound scatter, i. : for one thing, higher horizontal scatter, making the listening position less critical, and also less vertical scatter, making fewer reflections from the floor and the ceiling. the D 570 / D 590 has specially developed long-throw woofers mounted at the bottom of the cabinets. This woofer placing ensures an excellent coupling to the room and thus a very smooth frequency response and an uncritical set up of the speakers. 5 - 1 m from the back wall for correct frequency response in the bass range and to prevent reflections from the back wall in the upper tone ranges. With the D 5 series, Jamo has met with the attitude that few people will want a loud-speaker standing right in the middle of no-where. The bass reproduction has been tuned to being placed close to the back wall, and the deep cabinet prevents reflections in the upper tone ranges. These ensure that, regardless of the base, the loudspeaker will stand steady with a good mechanical contact to the base. If the base is hard (for instance wood or stone), the rubber feet provided may be mounted. NOTE: When spikes have been mounted, the loudspeaker should never be pulled or pushed over the floor as this will ruin carpets as well as floor tiles. The loudspeakers in Jamos D 5 line are equipped with gold-plated screw terminals which will accept very heavy stripped wire. Ask your local Jamo dealer for advice on the choice of cable. In general, the longer the cable required, the better quality should be used to avoid signal loss in the cable itself. In terms of sound reproduction it is therefore an advantage to keep the cables as short as possible; you should, ideally, make sure that the cables used to connect the speakers are the same length. Turn the terminal screws counter-clockwise until the conductors can easily fit into the holes 5. Turn the terminal screws clockwise until the cables are firmly secured in the terminals.
