The new Jamo DMR 45 digital all-in-one receiver easily lets users create enveloping 5.1-channel surround sound performance using only two speakers and a subwoofer with the Dolby Virtual Surround technology.

This compact 2.1-channel virtual surround receiver delivers 75 watts of power to each speaker and is equipped with an LFE (low frequency effects) output for subwoofer. Additionally, the DMR 45 has a HDMI (1.2a) all-digital interface and built-in video upscaling up to 720p/1080i video resolution, enhances standard DVD-quality on modern flat-screen TVs. The system features an advanced Dolby Digital Decoder and supports a wide range of standard formats, such as DivX, Xvid, WMA, MP3 and JPEG. Also the Jamo DMR 45 integrates a radio tuner with 40 AM/FM presets and a front-panel USB port.

Jamo intoduced this month a new floorstanding speaker, like the S 708 the new S 718 still offers impressive bass with a 10-inch side-mounted woofer.

Highly sensitive (92dB) this 3-way bassreflex column will be easy to drive even with a small amplifier. The S 718 is composed of a 1-inch dome tweeter with horn-loading matched with two 6.5-inch midrange drivers ensures strong and clear vocals and instruments while the massive 10-inch side-mounted woofer delivers the bass. The floorstander is fully equipped for optional bi-wiring and bi-amplification. Furthermore, the easily adjustable spikes ensure that the speakers always stand securely and have a stable contact with the floor.

No price has been announced yet, but as a replacement of the S 708, we think that they will cost a little over 250€/pair.

With the introduction of its flagship dipolar R 909 floorstander over two years ago, Jamo set a new standard for construction and performance in the high-end speaker category. The company plans to build on its success a smaller, more affordable version called the R 907.

Based upon the dipolar principle, meaning the sound from the front of the speaker is out of phase with the sound from the back, the R 907 loads dual 12-inch woofers as opposed to the 15-inch drivers that are featured in the R 909. Overall, the R 907 is approximately 20 percent shorter and 15 percent slimmer than its predecessor. However, its operation is identical in principle. Like its predecessor 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 powerful and punchy bass unmatched by any mass-produced dipolar speaker.

Priced at $8,999 per pair, the Jamo R 907 will be available for purchase through the specialty retail market in February 2008.
