    Default For sale Jamo Concert 8 Speakers

    For sale is my pair of Jamo Concert 8 speakers in cherry finish, these are fantastic standmount speakers and are in excellent conditon, these speakers can play any type of music, and are a very fast speaker. The bass is excellent, reminiscent of a floor stander, in fact these speakers perform very much like a floor stander and for the size of them they disappear very easily.

    I would prefer colelction from Dudley in the West Midlands as they are heavy, they can also be heard on my hifi system. I also have the original boxes and manual.

    I am looking for £495 for them collected, pm me if interested. I would consider sending them out on a courier if need be, a price could be obtained. I will not ship overseas due to the size and weight.

    I would also consider swapping them for a dac of similar value such as a Lavry or Benchmark etc, the dac must have balanced inputs



    Here is a review of them

    http://www.gramophone.net/Issue/Page...Jamo+Concert+8

    here are the specs

    * 2-way bass reflex,
    * 25mm Sonotex Dome tweeter
    * Bass driver 6.5 " SEAS excel

    Ive added a few pictures, when I came to take the pics I noticed that there is a slight mark on the back of one of them, never really noticed it before as they have always been in the room facing the front, this is only a slight cosmetic mark and does not effect the performance of the speakers

    Quick bump

    These are a great speaker and punch well above their weight, a couple of wammers have heard these and have been quite surprised, apparently they also work well with valves

    Im open to reasonable offers too!

    They have a lot of drive I used to own these years back, my first true high end speakers. At this price well worth a punt
