Deze set is vervangen door duurdere high end speakers en daardoor overbodig geworden. Er is zuinig met deze set omgegaan en gezien de eigenaar niet van harde muziek houdt is er ook nooit hard mee gedr
The timing matters a bit here: this is an older Jamo floorstander, but the design still has a following and there’s no obvious replacement-model pressure making it irrelevant. At €100, the ask looks fair to good versus recent used examples around €59–€130, with €100 sitting comfortably in the middle rather than feeling stretched.
What keeps it interesting is the easy, relaxed Jamo house sound and the fact that these are still practical full-size speakers for stereo or home theater duty. If they’re complete and cosmetically decent, €100 is a sensible buy; the real checks are simple ones on age-related wear, driver condition, and intact grilles, since the value here comes from clean working condition more than rarity.

Jamo traces its roots to 1968 in the small Danish village of Glingor, northern Jutland, where carpenter Preben Jakobsen and his partner Mortensen launched the brand from a modest workshop. Named from the founders' surnames, Jamo quickly expanded, building its first factory by 1970 and debuting at the 1973 IFA exhibition. Danish design principles—emphasizing simplicity, elegance, and precision engineering—propelled it from humble beginnings to Europe's largest speaker manufacturer, blending Scandinavian aesthetics with breakthrough audio technologies.
The brand has long specialized in loudspeakers, from iconic hi-fi models to pioneering home theater systems, earning a milestone as the first in the EMEA region to achieve THX certification in 1991 with its THX ONE setup. While speakers remain its hallmark, Jamo's portfolio has evolved to encompass high-fidelity systems, connected solutions, and lifestyle products, always prioritizing performance-driven sound.
Positioned as a mid-tier powerhouse with premium aspirations, Jamo dominated the European market through the 1990s and 2000s under various ownerships, including Klipsch, before a 2024 acquisition by Chinese firms Cinemaster and Rayleigh Lab. This revival honors its Nordic heritage—retaining some Danish production—while modernizing for today's audiophiles, appealing to discerning buyers seeking value-packed, stylish hi-fi without ultra-high-end prices.
