Jamo R 907: Flagship Sound, Smaller Size

INDIANAPOLIS (July 31, 2008)— A smaller, more affordable version of the Jamo R 909, the new R 907 tower speaker is also designed for the true audiophile—but designed to work brilliantly where space is at a premium. Like the R 909, the R 907 features dipolar engineering, which means that sound is distributed from both the front and the back of the speaker. The reflected audio from the rear adds ambiance and gives the impression of a much larger room—in other words, a more lifelike, live performance sound.

When the R 909 was introduced, customers and critics alike were truly amazed by the capabilities of this beautiful dipolar design. Finally, a radically different type of speaker that delivers music as it should be heard – live in your living room!

One problem became apparent – not all audio-connoisseurs had a listening room capable of meeting the demands of the unique open construction design of this dipolar giant.

The Jamo development team was given a mission: to “translate” the design and the acoustic characteristics of the R 909 into a new, less space-demanding speaker system. Mission accomplished – the Jamo R 907. With the same authority as its bigger brother, the R 907’s sound quality is very open and dynamic with extremely low distortion throughout the entire range, a highly-detailed midrange with optimal voice reproduction, and a firm, powerful and punchy bass unmatched by any mass-produced dipolar speaker.

Ultimate audio

Jamo R 909 and its little brother, R 907, are beautifully shaped sculptures with superior power handling and sound. With their exceptionally refined sound they are, without a doubt, designed exclusively for the increasing number of people who prefer high-end speakers that deliver perfect two-channel sound.
