Jamo C 607 vs. MA RS 6

Friends,

I have gone through all discussions relating to Jamos. Could not find much of discussion around them though.

I have auditioned both Jamo C 607 and Monitor Audio RS6. I am considering it as part of the 5.1 package. I have listened to both in a span of over 3-4 weeks. When I heard them, both of them sounded great. Not able to make up my mind. Any experiences, suggestions here? I like the looks of 607 and specifications of RS6. Should sensitivity (89 in 607 and 91 in RS6) be a consideration? Btw, this selection is the first part of my HiFi/HT journey. Appreciate your help.

As with most of people here, my main interest would be for Music (80%) and the rest for Sky/DVD.

Thank you!

Regards
Keshav.

What equipment will you be using them with (cd, dvd, amp, av receiver)? Also what kind of listening space will this be in (dimensions)?

Listening room is about 17'x16'. I intend to use it with a good universal player to begin with (may be a dedicated CDP later, if I am not happy) and a good A/V receiver.

Re: Jamo C 607 vs. MA RS 6

Both are good acclaimed speakers. Out of the two Jamo would be a little hard to drive. So you should keep that in mind. For Jamo you would need a better amp.

I'd suggest re-demo in a span of a few days and carry your own CDs for audition. That way you can judge better.

Also, you should not let the specs affect your final decision. Specs are meant to be indicators. And they need not be true either. Different companies use a different degree of honesty in publishing specs.

Hmm I am not from Blore. But there must be someone from Blore who has a Jamo?

Re: Jamo C 607 vs. MA RS 6

I ecently purchased C 607 it sounds good with pioneer AX4 amp
and produces nice bass
only one thing to consider your c607 should be 2 feet away from wall
eats some space
voice clarity also very good
initially i was fearing to put 3 way to a 16 feet/14 feet hall
it didnot produce any boomy sounds but in the end nice speaker iam satisfied
also i think pioneer mcacc may help
regards,
vungtau

Thanks Vungtau!

That was pretty useful information! Did you have any issues with it's sensitivity being 89db? I would love to visit you in case you're in Bangalore!
