Decibels india is having sale on Jamo speakers in their main outlet in Lajpat nagar from this Sunday. I had auditioned 516, 506 and 606 which are available in pairs. The rest are beyond my budget. There are 5.0 combo available both in towers, centre and surrounds which the dealer refuse to unbundle for towers alone. 5.1 combos are available in small satellites/sub combo.
516 12700
506 around 23000
606 27700
These are either demo/display pieces but in excellent condition. Some are brand new with 15% off on MRP.
They had only Sherwood AX 5505 integrated amp(100wpc) for demo played thru CD player. I found 216 scored over 506 on clarity,separation and overall coherence although 506 could go louder. The problem was he had no other amp and only hotel california live was played on all speakers.
My point is whether these speakers are worth the price?
If so which amp would do justice provided that clear treble, distinct mids and tight bass are required? I know it would depend on personal taste but for a sound leaning towards warm, suggestions would be welcome. One of the FM in Delhi had put up NAD amp on sale (40wpc at 8 ohms). How would Jamo match? I think 506 and 606 would be too much for this NAD as Jamos are nominally rated at 6 ohms.this is urgent as few pieces are left which may go off by 14th.
