We have been a Jamo dealer for 6 years. They make speakers ranging from 99.99 to 10k systems. They manufacture over three hundred diffrent modesl of speakers per year. They are a six sigma company commited to quality control. They are the second largest speaker manufacturer in the world (Sales volume, first is harmon int'l). As for the speakers, you ge what you pay for. I have heard their entire line of speakers, some i was impressed other i was not. The E8 series is a good starting point. the D4, D5, and D8 is where it is at. We use the E8 speakers as our entry level speakers. I am currently using the E850's with a velodyne 12" servo. I have had great results. I would suggest listening to them a a Jamo dealer. We also sell KEF, and Polk, two other great speaker brands. The KEF Crestra line has a good bang for the buck.
