All new Jamo Studio 7

The Jamo Studio 7 Range

We are very excited to announce the new Jamo Studio 7 range, raising the bar for consumer quality. With its undeniably Scandinavian look, we can assure you that visual satisfaction is not all the Studio7 brings to the table, you can expect unrivalled sound quality as well. The range owes its name to the distinctive 7° tilt. To give you an exceptional combination of both aesthetics and audio performance that is unmatched in its class, our engineers chose top-tier components that were expertly voiced and tested with many hours of listening. Featuring Jamo's proprietary technologies, Studio 7 speakers let you enjoy your favourite music and movies with a sound quality as pure as the Scandinavian air. 

With its minimalist aesthetic, clean lines, and meticulous attention to detail, the Studio 7 series is a textbook example of form following function and ushers in a new era of performance for Jamo. Brimming with technical innovation, Jamo has created a timeless speaker design that would grace any home. Inspired by nature, the Studio 7 series is a tribute to its two founders, Preben Jacobsen and Julius Mortensen.

Crystal Clear Highs

An all-new 1-inch tweeter featuring a copper faraday ring which increases sensitivity and reduces nonlinear distortion carries out the high-frequency duties. The tweeter and surround are made from fabric and exhibit excellent distortion characteristics and wide bandwidth for a non-fatiguing yet detailed sound. The High Frequency waveguide was optimised using Jamo’s exclusive COMSOL software model. The Danish maker validates the waveguide and tweeter performance through countless hours of real-world testing to ensure consistency, reliability, and performance even at high sound pressure levels for extended periods.

7° Tilted cabinet

Seven really is the magic number for the new Studio 7. To ensure a coherent sound stage, we have time-aligned the acoustic centres of the drive units by tilting the cabinet back and mounting it on a plinth that houses the speaker crossover. This implementation helps minimise the timing anomalies that can occur in a more traditional enclosure.

Reducing Diffraction

When a speaker driver produces sound, energy spreads across the speaker’s baffle towards the edge of the cabinet. If that energy hits a hard cabinet edge, a smaller version of this energy reflects towards the driver, causing a time-shifted low-level signal that can corrupt the sound of the driver leading to distortion. To help prevent colouring of the driver’s signal, Jamo rounds the cabinet edge, meaning the energy gently dissipates naturally.

Natural Bass

The bass drivers feature embossed paper cones, high strength motor assemblies incorporating aluminium inductance shorting rings that enhance power handling and lower distortion. The aluminium shorting ring lowers distortion for clean, dynamic bass and increases power handling as the aluminium ring acts as a heat sink. The embossed paper cone with “Thor’s Hammer” detailing increases the rigidity to improve the transient response for that snappy yet natural bass.

Quiet cabinet for increased resolution

The Jamo Studio speakers’ cabinet walls are thicker (15mm MDF with 18mm Front baffle) and critically braced to ensure a low degree of « self-noise ». This design allows you to hear more low-level detail and increases resolution when playing at any output level compared to competing products in their class. In short, you get to hear more of what you want and less of what you don’t.

High-quality crossover

Jamo houses the crossover in its sealed plinth to minimise the possibility of any interaction between the large bass driver magnet and the inductors in the crossover. The Studio 7 design also pays particular attention to the topology and component selection. Using Mylar and non-polarised electrolytic capacitors, along with iron and air core inductors and 25W resistors, perfectly blends the speaker drivers delivering the highest level of transparency throughout the audio band.

Two colours inspired by Nordic nature

Jamo chose the Studio 7 range’s colours from the chromatic palette of Scandinavian landscapes. Norwegian fjords inspire the dark blue, while the grey finish channels the hue of fog hanging over a Finnish forest. Studio 7’s signature Blue Fjord brings an emotional touch to your interior, whilst Grey Cloud integrates seamlessly into the modern home. The Jamo Studio 7 will enhance your living space no matter which colour you choose.
