A 360
Recently refreshed, Jamo’s phenomenally successful A 3 series subwoofer/satellite systems have now been augmented with the launch of a space-saving new combination L/C/R (left/centre/right) speaker that’s purpose-designed to complement flatscreen displays.
The new Jamo A 360, which is finished in black, features six drive units (3 x 90mm bass drivers + 3 x 90mm co-axial midrange drivers with integral 19mm tweeters)and allows users to replace conventional, separate left/right/centre speakers with a single loudspeaker.
A key factor in the A 360’s appeal is that it’s supplied with a unique, tiltable, wall-mounting system. The speaker affixes to a mounting plate that can be screwed horizontally to a wall.
All the speaker connections are made to the speaker enclosure through a single slot which makes for a neater finished appearance.
As mentioned underneath the A 360’s grille lurk six drive units, arranged in a 2.5-way configuration. Yet, despite this formidable array, the slimline A 360 still measures just 92mm (3.6in) deep… the same as the majority of flatscreen displays.
And with a 100-20,000Hz frequency response, along with 100w power handling capacity (short-term), there’s no compromise when it comes to performance either. This is a proper home cinema speaker (complete with vital magnetic shielding), albeit one that’s unusually convenient.
For a 3.1 system all that’s required is a single A 360 plus a subwoofer (there are three in the A 3 range to pick from). For an ultra-convenient 6.1 system just add another A 360 for the rear wall of your listening room. Alternatively, just add individual surround speakers, such as the A 320 or A 340, for a more purist solution (or if you want 7.1 reproduction).
With two satellites, a centre speaker plus three subwoofers already on offer in the A 3 series, the arrival of the A 360 combination LCR loudspeaker expands system-building possibilities even further. This really is a loudspeaker range that has something for everyone…
