Beschrijving: deze jamo s 808 sub subwoofer in het wit is een compacte en stijlvolle toevoeging aan elke home cinema set. Ondanks zijn bescheiden formaat levert hij een verrassend diepe en krachtige b
Jamo’s compact subwoofers have a solid reputation for adding easy, room-friendly bass without taking over a setup. At €150, this one lands above the recent used median of €75 and above the 75th percentile of €130, so it reads as ambitious rather than a bargain.
That said, if it’s clean and fully working, there’s real value here: these are straightforward, practical subs for a living-room or home-cinema system, and the white finish can be harder to find. At this price, I’d want confirmation of driver health, amp function, and whether the original cable or accessories are included, since a few missing bits can quickly erode the appeal.

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.
