Great review. Because of you’re review, I just bought the 809s 5.0 pack. Comes with the S 83 center , S 803 bookshelf speakers. All for 400 bucks. Can’t wait to hear them !
So glad you liked these! Great review! I just bought a surround system for my Brother-in-law (they just moved into a very nice home in Kentucky...it's his 1st EVER surround system!) and here's what the setup is: Jamo S 807 Towers for the Fronts, Micca MB42 Center, Klipsch SUB-100 10-incher, and a Sherwood RD-6500 AV Receiver, and it sounds fantastic! And all for about $525!! if you can believe it! One really doesn't need to spend a fortune for a great system! 😊😄🤩 Love your channel!
I love mine. But, every time I would look at the base feet, I drove me nuts. So, I replaced them with some quality ones. Now they look like a million dollars.
Great review. Just picked up a pair of these to replace my vintage Sansui 4 way floor speakers. Where did you get that awesome huge lava lamp? Thanks. S
I can get a pair right now brand new - $211.00. Should I?? Hard to say no at that price. I just got the Jamo C81 center channel new for only $48.00! I couldn't say no for the price.
nice review. funny, it is the Atmos toppers that drew me to the S809 towers. I also like that they are taller than my Infinity Primus 262 I've had for 20 years. would do the front+center+atmos (all in black) as I already have a sub. I'd love to do a speaker build from parts-express, but this jamo route might be more economical
Hi, just a quick tip. When you are mastering your video prior to release, please take a few minutes to learn how to remove white noise hiss from the audio track, even free tools have really great software for removing this. WIll definitely improve your production quality. Cheers.
That's a really tough choice. I haven't heard the emotivas but I heard they're really good. I'm also a fan of folded ribbon tweeters giveb that I own GoldenEar speakers. I would say go with the emotivas but be weary that they're a 4ohm speaker and you'll need an amp that can handle 4ohm loads.
@@Upscaled_HT thank you for your comment and honest opinion. I thought so too. I probably will go with the emovtia. I thought they also might be better built quality.
No to keep bothering you about speakers just wanted to pick your brain one more time. I also have my eye on the jbl stage 170 . Since the emotive went up $100 I’m kinda stepping back from them now. So which of those you think would be the better sound and built quality? Thanks
I'm trying to decide between a home Theatre set of the Jamo S 8 series and the Polk Audio XT series. I'm torn! the Jamos look so cool, especially if I get them in white!
I was thinking of getting the Jamo S 809 HCS 5.0, with Jamo S 8 ATM 100W for a 5.1.2 (i already have Jamo SUB 210 DA active sub), and for AVR i was thinking of getting one of : Yamaha RX-V6A/Denon x3700h/Onkyo TX-Z50. Any thoughts ? Thanks!
@@Upscaled_HT Thank you for the quick reply! The only problem is the Onkyo is the only one you can't even preorder here in Italy 😥. The Yamaha is priced at around 800 € ( ~900$ ) while the Denon is almost 1400 € ( ~1600$ ), both on preorder only now.
@@Mjaybird I completely understand but I think just the towers alone cost the same or about the same. Might as well get the package and sell the bookshelves and the center.
I understand what you're saying but there are some limitations to how successfully that can be done. For one, the quality of the microphone recording the speakers, then you have the quality of the device where you're watching the video (Most likely a phone), and finally you have RUclips's video and audio compression. Creators also stay away from this because music that anyone would want to listen to is copyrighted, which would cause the video to be demonetized. This leaves only copyright free tracks most likely provided by RUclips. I'll do some experimenting on my end to see if I can come up with a solution. Crutchfield actually implemented a program called SpeakerCompare which is a "Patented Virtual Audio™ technology for auditioning speakers online." You should check it out with your best set of headphones though. www.crutchfield.com/S-51BhMlMZSCA/speakercompare/default.aspx

I saw that deal pop up after ordered my set. That's an amazing deal.
@@Upscaled_HT Where is this deal? Is it still available?
@@dimbachallenge i found em for 359 with free shipping for the whole set
@@dimbachallenge it would be around more than double the price in India.

It’s a amazing how a good system is so accessible these days.
Your intro alone made me subscribe . Well played
Thank you!
Excellent presentation! Great evaluation!
Thank you!
Thanks for this in-depth review
Glad it helped you out!
I have the S 807 Towers and love 'em! (Great review by the way)
Cool, thanks!
I love mine. But, every time I would look at the base feet, I drove me nuts. So, I replaced them with some quality ones. Now they look like a million dollars.
hello, is it worth buying the s809 over the s807 if I am only using them 95% of the time for movies an set to small in my receiver?
I would say you probably don’t need the 809s but if the premium to get the 809s isn’t much I would go for them.
Great review. Just picked up a pair of these to replace my vintage Sansui 4 way floor speakers. Where did you get that awesome huge lava lamp? Thanks. S
I bought directly from www.lavalamp.com/.
I can get a pair right now brand new - $211.00. Should I?? Hard to say no at that price. I just got the Jamo C81 center channel new for only $48.00! I couldn't say no for the price.
I think it really can’t be beat honestly. That’s bookshelf speaker pricing.
Is there any other brand/model of subwoofer besides Jamo S810 and C910/C912 to complement these speakers?
nice review. funny, it is the Atmos toppers that drew me to the S809 towers. I also like that they are taller than my Infinity Primus 262 I've had for 20 years. would do the front+center+atmos (all in black) as I already have a sub.

Great speakers! The atmos modules are definitely a very nice addition making it really easy to upgrade your home theater.
wf-34 klipsch? I own these. Original retail was$1500 each. Do they compare? They look very similar...
I would say the Klipsch are still better for sure.
Do you think Denon AVR-S660H receiver will be enough to drive them?
It should power them with no problem. They're pretty efficient speakers.

Thanks for the tip. I try to only record when the HVAC is not running.
I got a whole 5.1 set from adormara for $500 pretty happy about it
Great deal! Enjoy.
I’m having a hard decision to pick between these or emotiva t0+ what do you think? On best sounding ?

I just bought 2 with a sub and they were delivered by UPS all smashed up in the box.
Definitely call the seller.
According to the reviews on Adorama they don't come with the wires or any means of connecting to the TV
These are passive speakers. You need speaker wire and some kind of amplifier to power them. Any av receiver would work nicely.
@@Upscaled_HT yeah there's a receiver I'm considering. Thanks
Just got a pair of those in the walnut finish for $330 shipped. Replacing my old JBL single driver towers.
Solid set of speakers for the money for sure!
Any thoughts on crossover setting? I spoke with someone at Klipsch who recommended 100hz all around due to the speakers being 5inch. Thought?
I think 80hz would be appropriate. I had them set to 60 and they worked good.
How does the s706 stand to these ?
Good review. I am looking at the s809 to replace my Polk t50
Definitely will be a solid upgrade.
@@Upscaled_HT I have a denon s760h receiver and I like my Polk t50 but heard the Jamo s809 are more lively and sound better
@@Mjaybird They're definitely a more premium speaker and you can get the whole set of 5 speakers for $400 on adorama.
@@Upscaled_HT I just want the towers. I have PSB b4 bookshelf speakers I am happy with as rear speakers
@@Mjaybird I completely understand but I think just the towers alone cost the same or about the same. Might as well get the package and sell the bookshelves and the center.
Hahaha. Great intro
Thank you!
A sub is a must 2 is better 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
I always recommend a sub if possible definitely, especially for a home theater setup.
What av receiver do u recommend to drive my jamos 809s speakers 🤔
@@therockakaada6109 Honestly any receiver from a good brand would drive them well.
it blows my mind people do reviews on products and dont even demonstrate what they sound like lol

You can't hear how a speaker sounds or see how a display looks by watching a video.
worst "review" of listening experience i ever heard. like asking a random woman on the street. wow
Thanks for the feedback. Check out Andrew Robinson’s review of the speakers. You’ll probably like it more.
What an fn joke
