Design

The Concert Series was designed with one aim in mind: to bring the live concert experience into homes, with all of the dynamics and live performance characteristics intact. Even though it is small, the C 803 is engineered to sound big - which is the first thing you notice when you hear it. It has been designed with Jamos unique convex tapered vent, which reduces unwanted port turbulence and almost eliminates port noise.

The entire C 80 family is characterised by its genuinely authentic acoustics. The Concert series always conveys highly detailed and beautifully resonant sound across the entire frequency spectrum. The C 803 adds to these impressive performance credentials a smaller, but equally impressive look, either in dramatic black ash or in dark apple.

Whether you are looking for the ideal cinematic or the perfect musical experience, the C803 bookshelf loudspeaker makes an outstanding choice for the budget-minded.

Technology

The C 803 is a feature-packed 2-way bass reflex speaker that uses a 7-inch woofer and a 1-inch decoupled tweeter to deliver remarkably accurate sound, tailored to its smaller, bookshelf sized cabinet.

The speakers in the C80 series share a number of attributes. They all feature tweeters with DTT and WaveGuide, with woofers and midrange units that use Hard Conical Cone and Centre-Plug technology. Furthermore, they all come with an Active Impedance Correction system, which neutralises the magnetic field around the pole piece, to reduce distortion by up to 50%.

The more compact Jamo C803 floor-standing loudspeaker is packed with high-performance features:
 

• Decoupled Tweeter Technology (DTT) reduces vibration to keep high frequencies clear and accurate

• A convex tapered vent to minimise port noise and sound coloration

• Wave Guide for increased sound control to maximise speaker placement

• The Hard Conical Cone (HCC) allows midrange to handle higher frequencies without distortion

• A center plug replaces the traditional dust cap to increase power handling and stabilise sound reproduction

• Active Impedance Control reduces distortion for a clearer midrange

The C 803 bookshelf speaker delivers big audio performance from an elegant, compact cabinet.
