Frequently Asked Questions - 3A2 JAMO

What does the package of the JAMO I/O 3A2 speaker contain?

The package includes two speakers, two pre-assembled brackets, four port plugs, four thumbscrews, eight screw caps, four covers, a hex key and the user manual.

How to attach the wall bracket for the JAMO 3A2 speaker?

Use four screws suitable for the wall material (not supplied). The bracket can be oriented horizontally or vertically. Adjust the tilt after placing the speaker in the curved bracket, then tighten the thumbscrews. Cover them with the supplied covers.

How to set the power tap on the 70/100 V transformer?

A switch located near the terminals allows selecting the power per speaker: 10 W, 5 W, 2.5 W or 1.25 W. Choose the value suited to your installation.

Can I paint the JAMO 3A2 speaker?

Yes, it is recommended to spray paint before assembly. Remove the grille and protect the front baffle. Apply several thin coats to avoid drips. Reattach the grille after drying.

How to remove the grille of the speaker?

The grille is carefully removed by hand. It is attached by pegs. To access the drivers or insert the port plugs, simply lift it off.

What are the sensitivity and impedance of this speaker?

Sensitivity is 88 dB (2.83 V / 1 m) and nominal impedance is 8 ohms.

How to connect the speaker wires?

Strip the wires 12 mm, twist the strands. Loosen the terminals by turning counterclockwise, insert the positive wire (red) into the red terminal and the negative (black) into the black terminal, then tighten clockwise.

Can the speaker be used outdoors?

Yes, but if the front is directly exposed to rain, you must seal the resonance vents with the supplied port plugs to prevent flooding of the drivers. High humidity has no effect.

What to do if I want to repair the speaker or claim warranty?

Contact your authorized Jamo dealer. The warranty covers manufacturing defects upon presentation of the receipt and a readable serial number. Never send the product without prior agreement.

What are the dimensions and weight of a JAMO 3A2 speaker?

Each speaker measures 290 x 200 x 209 mm (11.4 x 7.9 x 8.2 inches) and weighs 3.2 kg (6.9 lb).

Package content

Speaker (2)

Port plug "i" (4)

Allen wrench (1)

Assembled bracket (2)

Thumb screw "j" (4)

Manual (1)

Screw plug "g" (8)

Covers "k" (4)

Bracket

The brackets comes pre-assembled. If disassembling the bracket for painting, re-assemble it as follow: Place the curved bracket (a) between the wall bracket (b) and wall bracket cover (c) as shown in fig. 1. Insert two 1'' allen bolts (d) through wall bracket into wall bracket cover and tighten with the supplied allen wrench. Insert two 1/2'' allen bolts (e) into each side of wall bracket and tighten towards curved bracket.

Fig. 1

Mounting of bracket

The bracket can be mounted for horizontal or vertical placement of the speaker. Mount the bracket with four screws (not included) appropriate for the surface the bracket is mounted to (wood, brick, concrete or other). Take into account the weight of the speaker (specifications on back). A hole (f) in the middle of the bracket allows for running the speaker wire through the bracket if so desired. Cover the screws with four screw plugs (g) fig. 2.

Mounting of port plugs

If the front of the speaker is exposed to rain directly entering the bass reflex ports (under the grill), the ports should be closed to avoid filling the speaker with water. High moisture is not a problem. Remove the grill (h) from the speaker and insert two port plugs (i) into the bass ports. Re-install the grill. The speaker will reproduce less bass with the ports closed.

Connecting speaker wires

Loosen speaker terminals by turning counter clockwise. Strip 12'' / 12 mm in-sulation off each wire. Twist strands on each wire to form "solid" wire.

Insert one wire into each terminal and tighten terminal by turning clockwise. Make sure positive (+) is to red terminal and negative (-) to black terminal for correct phasing.

Adjustment of I/O 3T

This model is for 70V or 100V line installation. This is mainly used in commercial installations with many speakers and requires an amplifier with matching transformer outputs. A switch located next to the terminals al-lows for adjustments of the level of the speaker in 10W, 5W, 2.5W and 1.25W settings. Adjust the switch to the desired level on each speaker.

Mounting of speaker

Place the speaker inside the curved bracket as shown in fig. 2 and insert thumb screws (j) through each end of the curved bracket into the speaker.

Adjust the speaker to the desired angle and tighten the thumb screws. In-stall the covers (k) over the thumb screws. The curved bracket can be ad-justed in the wall bracket by loosening the two 12 Allen bolts (e) and re-tighten them after adjustment.

Fig. 2

Painting

The speaker and bracket can be painted. Spray painting is recommended. Paint all parts before assembling. Remove the grill from the speaker before painting and cover the front baffle (l) of the speaker. Apply many thin coats instead of a few thick coats to avoid the paint running or clogging the grill holes. Re-install grill after painting.
