Wall mount: 

The rear wall “amplifies” low frequencies and the floor 
actually gives a dip in approximately the same range due 

to the first floor reflection reaching the ear in opposite 

phase with the direct sound from the speaker. 

The speaker can be used as full range. In this case the 

subwoofer should be adjusted to blend in seamlessly in 
order to suit the room and personal preferences. However, 

D 400 is intended for crossover at 80 or 100 Hz – again 

depending on the room. 

 

 
The resonance frequency of the tweeter is as low as 600 Hz. The x-over to the mid-woofer 

is set at 1.7kHz but due to the excellent low frequency extension we use a low Q 2

nd

 order 

filter to roll it off downwards. So, actually it plays down to 1 kHz.  Thereby, we secured a 

seamless integration between the drivers, and avoided potential phase errors caused by 

high order filtering. 
 

 

 

D 430

 

D 430

 is a 2 way bass reflex system featuring a 6½” woofer and a 1” DCD 

tweeter. 

This compact bookshelf speaker can be placed on a bookshelf – or on the 

designated D 4FS stand – providing a very stable placing at the correct 

listening height. 

The D 4FS can be placed either by using the adjustable 
spikes securing a good mechanical coupling to the floor 

independent of floor materials or, if you prefer to 

decouple it from the floor, by using the enclosed rubber 

absorbers. The design and choice of material for the 

rubber absorbers (PUR 80 Shore A) was made to match 
exactly the D 4 speakers. 

 

The D 430/D 450/D 4CEN all feature Jamos Convex Tapered Vent. This high 

flow bass reflex port design ensures less turbulence and allows 5 dB higher SPL before port 

noise occurs – which means that in practical life, port noise is eliminated! 
 

The D 430 features gold plated bi-wiring/amping terminals – giving you all possibilities of 

“fine-tuning” the sound by using cables that suit exactly your equipment, your room and 

personal preferences.
