Setup

1. Attaching Stabilizer Feet

The S 807 speakers include stabilizer feet to enhance stability and acoustic performance. Carefully lay the speaker on its side on a soft, clean surface to avoid scratching the cabinet. Attach the four stabilizer feet to the bottom of each speaker using the provided screws. Ensure they are securely fastened. Note: Some users have reported difficulty with screw insertion; apply gentle, even pressure. Do not overtighten.

2. Speaker Placement

For optimal sound, place the floorstanding speakers on a firm, level surface. Position them equidistant from your primary listening position, forming an equilateral triangle. Experiment with the distance from walls to fine-tune bass response and soundstage. The front-firing tube port allows for greater flexibility in placement compared to rear-ported designs.

3. Connecting to an Amplifier/Receiver

The S 807 speakers feature dual binding posts for main audio input and additional terminals for Dolby Atmos height modules (if used). Use high-quality speaker wire to connect the speakers to your amplifier or receiver. Ensure correct polarity: connect the positive (+) terminal on the speaker to the positive (+) terminal on the amplifier, and the negative (-) terminal on the speaker to the negative (-) terminal on the amplifier.

  • Main Input: Connect your amplifier's main left/right output to the "MAIN" terminals on the back of each speaker.
  • Dolby Atmos Integration: The S 807 is designed for seamless integration with Jamo S 8 ATM Dolby Atmos elevation speakers. These modules connect directly to the "HEIGHT" terminals atop the S 807 cabinet, with wiring routed internally to the main speaker's rear terminals, avoiding visible wires.

Operating Instructions

Once properly connected, your Jamo S 807 speakers are ready for use. Ensure your amplifier/receiver is powered on and set to the correct input source. Start with a low volume level and gradually increase it to your desired listening level.

  • Volume Control: Adjust the volume using your amplifier or receiver's controls.
  • Source Selection: Select your audio source (e.g., CD player, streaming device, TV) via your amplifier.
  • Dolby Atmos (Optional): If using S 8 ATM modules, ensure your receiver is configured for Dolby Atmos and the height channels are properly calibrated.

The integrated WaveGuide acoustic technology focuses high-frequency sound, providing clear and dynamic audio reproduction. The dual 5-inch polyfiber woofers deliver balanced low-end frequencies.

Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and performance of your Jamo S 807 speakers, follow these guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Dust the speaker cabinets with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, lightly dampen the cloth with water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Grilles: The fabric grilles can be gently removed for cleaning or for a different aesthetic. Handle them carefully to avoid damage.
  • Environment: Avoid placing speakers in direct sunlight, near heat sources, or in areas with high humidity.
  • Driver Protection: Avoid touching the speaker drivers (tweeter and woofers) directly, as this can cause damage.
