Terminals
The loudspeakers in Jamos D 5 line are equipped with gold-plated screw terminals which will accept very heavy stripped wire.
Ask your local Jamo dealer for advice on the choice of cable.
In general, the longer the cable required, the better quality should be used to avoid signal loss in the cable itself. In terms of sound
reproduction it is therefore an advantage to keep the cables as short as possible; you should, ideally, make sure that the cables used to
connect the speakers are the same length.
Connect the loudspeaker cables as follows:
1. Turn off the amplifier
2. Carefully remove approx. 10 mm of the insulating
material beware not to damage the conductors!
3. Twist the conductor ends
4. Turn the terminal screws counter-clockwise until the
conductors can easily fit into the holes
5. Turn the terminal screws clockwise until the cables are
firmly secured in the terminals.
NOTE!
Make sure that the + and wires do not touch each other,
as a short-circuit could damage the amplifiers output
section.
PLACING
Most loudspeakers currently on the market need to be
placed min. 0.5 - 1 m from the back wall for correct
frequency response in the bass range and to prevent
reflections from the back wall in the upper tone ranges.
With the D 5 series, Jamo has met with the attitude that
few people will want a loud-speaker standing right in the
middle of no-where. The bass reproduction has been tuned
to being placed close to the back wall, and the deep cabinet
prevents reflections in the upper tone ranges. Also, the
high, narrow cabinet is easy to place in the drawing room.

USE OF SPIKES
It is recommended to use the spikes provided. These ensure
that, regardless of the base, the loudspeaker will stand
steady with a good mechanical contact to the base.
If the base is hard (for instance wood or stone), the rubber
feet provided may be mounted.
NOTE:
When spikes have been mounted, the loudspeaker should
never be pulled or pushed over the floor as this will ruin
carpets as well as floor tiles.
