FINALLY! Affordable HIFI Loudspeaker. Jamo C97 II Tower Speaker Review
Is Jamo’s C97 II loudspeaker the best budget hifi and home theater speaker? It may not be perfect, but this tower speaker might just have enough high end audio performance to make even audiophiles happy. Jamo C97 II are a great addition to the perfect home theater setup. These tower speakers will fit right in with any audiophile’s HiFi system. Those on a more modest budget will not be disappointed in these beautifully designed loudspeakers.

The Fluance Signature towers are my pick they are phenomenal for the $799 per pair price tag (and even more impressive if you score a amazon warehouse deal. Best set of towers I've heard both used a new for the cost.

@JosephTongret 4 года назад

Emotiva Airmotiv series. My Primary setup has Revel F208's. Extremely linear measuring, wide dispersion, fantastic sounding speakers. My secondary setup I rotate speakers pretty regularly. The Emotiva T1's have been the most surprising to me for their modest asking price. I actually have been using the T1's through the majority of the quarantine, and that's saying something!

@vmrobles 4 года назад

I have a pair of the Onkyo SKF 4800’s. I think that for the $300 price tag they are amazing. Very warm sounding with plenty of bass. Steve Guttenberg, the Audiophiliac himself reviewed them in 2013 for CNET. I don’t feel they get enough love. The matching center and surround speakers are unfortunately not sold in the US.

I'm on a quest to build a home theater system on a budget. These speakers for $1,000 is perfect! Problem is that they are now $689 each 😞. Same thing happened with the Pioneers I was looking at. You reviewed them at $99 each, and when I go look them up to buy them the price had increased to $179.99 each. It looks like the products you give very high praise to gets the price bumped up due to an increase in sales. Your reviews affect the industry my friend. I'm not complaining, well maybe I am a little lol. Keep it up brother!

@jjjcmo 3 года назад

I recently purchased a pair of these Jamo’s and I have not been disappointed. They replaced my beloved 43 year old original Advent Loudspeakers, which are still working great. But difference between the old and new speakers is quite noticeable. Voices have more immediacy and live performances now sound “live”, as opposed to sounding like recordings of live performances. Bass IS improved if the towers can be placed in corners of the room. As Andrew says, the Jamo’s will play well with all levels of amplifiers, but where they really shine is making budget and/or mid range equipment sound better!

As a new subscriber I must say I really enjoy your presentation style Andrew. Smooth, relaxed, knowledgeable and all without 5 infuriating jump cuts per sentence! I'm just wondering if you could expand on 5:40 a little. I always thought the idea of Hi *Fi* was to get as close to the artist's vision as possible, i.e. reproduce the master tape faithfully. Hi *fidelity* - being *true* to the master. The fact designers introduce their own sound seems to fly in the face of this. I'd love to hear your thoughts if you have time : - )

Thanks to this review, I was looking for a new speaker to upgrade from my 10 year old Jamo C-807's to the next level. Your Monitor audio Silver comparison is bang on. Not having the ability to audition due to where i live, I wanted to retain Jamo's concert series signature sound plus take it to the next level. I ended in ordering the Monitor audio Gold 300 5g, and it does just that. Couldn't be more happier.

Yes! Floorstanding versus bookshelves!

I got me some Jamo S 626 speakers and I absolutely love them. The S 622 speakers paired as rear channels is a massive upgrade for my room. honestly I feel like that audiolab 8300A amp I mentioned really made the high end sound better on my jamo speakers and those look like the same tweeters, and it packs so much punch in the base on the 8" side firing woofers. I love the side firing woofer design, it's hard to find I feel like.

@mun_l2727 Год назад

I bought the C97-II in 2021 after watching Andrew's review & paired it up with Audiolab 6000a recommended by Tarun (Kristi said the Audiolab can un-suck most speakers, I tend to agree). The Audiolab amp produced full range, seamless, coherent, presence sound as Andrew mentioned. In addition, the bass extension is improved. The treble can be sibilant only if the recording is that way, otherwise the silk dome tweeter is revealing. So, no more chasing down a rabbit hole for a while. Still keeping my old Boston CR8 and Yamaha RXV385 receiver in other room.

I’ve been a fan of Jamo for a couple of years and I think they are a hidden gem here in the US. I have the C97s which have the same specs just different color schemes. And this review articulates perfectly how I feel about my pair. When I was shopping, my budget was $2000. When it was all said and done, I kept coming back to these which cost me $500 for the pair. Been very happy. Both for Music and Movies. The only thing I don’t agree with is that, I really don’t feel the need for sub. But it can’t hurt to have it.

@MrWslindsay 4 года назад

Just received a pair. Definitely a nice budget floor stander. Not broken in yet but it's been a fun speaker so far. I thought these were going to be fatiguing like the studio line's tweeters. This was definitely not the case in my experience. And the bass, while not the most defined is definitely there. It extends quite well for the dual six's which was a surprise. It's definitely a colored sound but relaxed. They sound better with the grills off but when they are on I compensate with a touch of treble. The soundstage is nice and wide as well. I also purchased the C9 center channel and it blends well with panning and timbre. I think these will be great for an everyday home theater/music experience. I do recommend getting them away from the wall. In my house the bass tends to get a little thick but every room has its own effect. That being said I think anyone would enjoy these. And the price I got them for through Slickdeals and Adorama was quite the steal. Thanks Andrew for exposing these Jamo towers to the masses

Hi! First of all, I new on the channel and I have to say that it's really amazing! I just started to study about home theaters, and your channel is an awesome source of knowledge, and more importantly than that: you explain in a way that people with no background can understand - you guys are doing a great job. I have a question about a combination with the C97 II. Would it be a good idea to assemble a 5.1 home theater based on the following items: - C97's loudspeakers - C9 CEN II Center speaker - C 9 SUR II Surrounds - Dolby Atmos ATM 50 - One C 910 SUB Subwoofer - Sony STR-DN1080 Maybe this could even be an idea for a full-fledged video 😁 Thanks and keep up with the amazing work!

Personally I have some experience with an older model of this brand, and you described exactly my experience with my old ones, and you were listening to the new ones. Your description is exactly like my experience, the only difference being made by the mids driver, which in my case was from a 2.5way floorstanding with bigger drivers compared to the new model. It's absolutely incredible, INCREDIBLE sound and I can tell you it's comparable with a higher end models of speakers in my home. Thank you again, Andrew! And keep up the good work.

Like your reviews and they are so detailed. Im new to hi fi and after so many reviews I'm now confused what to buy for 2000$ speakers+av receiver. Even somebody told me to buy Tannoy platinum f6 speakers....help me and save me some time please 😅😅😫 keep up great work from you and your wife. Best regards from Croatia

Really good review as always!! Watching your videos from France 🇫🇷. Such a perfect appreciation doesn't really exist here... Would you test the brand " Elipson " in America 🇺🇸 ? Such a real esthetic and legendary good sounding loud speakers 🔊!!! Thanks again for the quality and objectivity of your videos 📹 !!!

Andrew, Thanks for the excellent review! My old, inexpensive system (I think my speaker is KEF iQ7, with a Denon AVR 3805 receiver) lack of the imaging and definition. Will the C97 a good upgrade? How does it compare with KEF LS50 + sub? Will a Emotiva BasX PT-100/A-300 pair a good match with it? (or I would need the Technics SU-G700 that you like :)

Jamo C series is amazing. They sound much more expensive than they are

Two reasons I subscribed 1. Your Outtakes are brilliant 2. Your voice sounds SOOO good out of my Studio monitors, (ALl True!)....P.S I would love to know what Mic you use

So they sound as good as they look impressive stuff. Don't remember seeing you this enthusiastic before.

It doesn't happen often, but you can obviously really tell when I'm into something. These are just fun, enjoyable speakers!

Hi Andrew. Its a geat channel you got. I would love for you to dive into a discussion about KEF´s UNIQ road compared to other conventional speaker configurations. Why does not more speaker companies try to get a "single point source" array. Are there too many drawbacks and tough design issues? One thing I also would love to hear a discussion about is the use of side-firing or even backfiring woofer configurations such as the BLADE I/II and Verity speakers.

I hope that tweeter is a little more refined than the one in my c809 - it's a bit messy/"grainy" at almost any volume. I actually added a coating to the rear side of the dome, and it helped calm that down a little. Sounds more soft like a Dynaudio now.

Hi Andrew & Christie. i watch this channel on a regular basis with great joy, as you not only reviewing gear, but also talks of the esthetic and looks on various components, and the many ways to set-up a system (thumbs up). The acknowledge of feels & looks, when we talking HI-FI is often understated? Who doesen't love the feel of a nice volume knob, or the nice finish on a speaker design? It all matters in the end, and i'm pretty sure this counts for all of us? But after you implemented the fairly new rack in your livingroom, i wonder if the length of the rack is limiting you, in terms of speaker placement and space between the speakers? If you wanted to put a pair of speakers closer to each other, don't you then have a problem? Me myself use to have a pretty long rack, and found it to be a problem with various speaker set-up, as i couldn't always get the right distance between them? So it's just an observation over time, i would like you to address :-) Cheers from Denmark (stay safe).

Thanks for the outakes, they were worth a good chuckle. I'd love to see your take on some dipole speakers. Maybe something like the Magnepan LRS (don't think I've seen those on your channel). Keep up the great work, I love your more down to earth take on hifi.

Noted! I was a Maggie owner for years so I'm familiar with their sound. Will have to reach out to them and see what we can work out!

@funkadelik97 4 года назад

@ufarkingicehole 3 года назад

I'm in search for something better and I'm struggling. Martin Logan motion 60s, Maybe Tekton double impacts, etc but all are Tripple the price.

@Timmicillo 3 года назад

I really want to buy these because of the aesthetics and sound but why don't they make a matching Atmos module??? Guess I'm going with the Kef Q series instead...
