Jamo 10 inch In-Ceiling LCR Speaker - 600 Series (IC 610 LCR)

Price is per speaker.

Design

The IC 610 LCR is a 3-way in-ceiling speaker. Part of our new 600 line, these speakers are based on the best materials and the most advanced technologies available. With this unique speaker, you can create a great surround sound experience, emanating from above.

The IC 610 LCR’s distinctive shape and advanced technology make it the perfect choice for front, center or rear channels in a first-class home theater solution.

With its paintable magnetic grille, the IC 610 LCR is designed to blend seamlessly into the ceiling—so all you notice is the remarkably detailed, great sound.

Technology

The IC 610 LCR delivers rich bass in an in-ceiling speaker from its 10-inch honeycomb woofer, crisp vocals from the 1.5-inch silk dome midrange and crystal clear reproduction of high frequencies from the 1-inch DTT silk dome tweeter.

The Jamo IC 610 LCR in-ceiling loudspeaker is packed with high-performance features:

• DTT (Decoupled tweeter Technology) to eliminate unwanted vibration that colors sound.
• HCC (Hard Conical Cone) technology for clear, detailed sound with virtually no distortion.
• WaveGuide tweeter faceplate design controls sound pattern for open, dynamic sound.
• Center plug to replace traditional dust cap, for cooler, more stable sound reproduction.
• A paintable magnetic grille to blend invisibly in any room.
• Adjustable impedance level allows you to adjust your speaker to the amplifier.

The IC 610 LCR provides all the performance you want in a home theater speaker, with the subtlety that lets it be heard, but not seen.

Jamo Tech Talk

Centre Plug
The Centre-Plug replaces the traditional dust cap, making the cone both lighter and more responsive, while also cooling the voice-coil resulting in higher power handling and a stable sound reproduction when playing loud. The design produces increased power-handling capabilities along with a more uniform, precise and dynamic reproduction of sound.

The Centre-Plug also prevents potential break-up points where the dust cap would have been glued to the cone. In addition, it prevents over- and under-pressure behind the dust cap when the cone moves back and forth. The advantage is more dynamic and precise sound reproduction.

DTT
DTT (Decoupled Tweeter Technology) is a mounting system specially developed by Jamo. One of the biggest challenges when designing speakers is preventing unwanted cabinet vibrations from clouding or colouring the sound. High frequencies are particularly susceptible. This problem is solved using the ingenious Jamo DTT.

By decoupling the tweeter from the rest of the loudspeaker, vibrations transmitted from the front baffle to the tweeter are reduced by more than 20dB, resulting in an uncommonly detailed and realistic reproduction of high frequencies.

HCC (Hard Conical Cone)
The HCC technology (Hard Conical Cone) enables the driver to reach far beyond midrange frequencies before any significant cone break-ups occur. The material’s rigidity and the cone’s conical shape ensures the unit creates clear and detailed sound with very little distortion, even at high sound pressures. This combines with the natural rubber suspension, which effectively prevents vibrations from travelling back to the diaphragm; the result is a very well-controlled diaphragm that operates vwithout break-ups up to 4kHz -well beyond its working range.

WaveGuide
WaveGuide is the unique way Jamo has shaped the tweeter’s faceplate. The result is a controlled sound pattern with a more open and dynamic reproduction of sound. WaveGuide makes it easier to position the speakers in the room.

Another big challenge is to secure a uniform dispersion pattern in the treble and midrange frequencies. In general, the dispersion is getting narrower as the frequencies get higher. Consequently in the area where the mid/woofer and the tweeter should integrate smoothly, the mid/woofer has a narrow dispersion and the tweeter has a wide dispersion. This problem is solved with the Jamo WaveGuide. The completely smooth design of the WaveGuide also reduces diffractions to an absolute minimum. Finally, the WaveGuide increases treble output in the lower treble range, which means the tweeter needs less power for the same SPL. So, power handling is improved and distortion is reduced.
