Frequently Asked Questions - S 52 JAMO

How do I connect the Jamo S 52 center speaker?

Use standard speaker wire with banana plugs or bare wire. Connect the positive (+) terminal of the amp to the red binding post on the speaker, and negative (-) to black. Ensure correct polarity.

Can I use the S 52 as a front left/right speaker?

The S 52 is designed as a center channel. While it can be used as a front speaker, its horizontal driver layout is optimized for dialogue reproduction. For best results, use dedicated left/right speakers.

How should I clean the speaker?

Clean only with a dry cloth. Do not use any liquid cleaners or abrasives, as they may damage the finish. Avoid touching the drivers.

Where should I place the center speaker?

Place the S 52 directly above or below the TV screen, centered with the listening position. Keep it at ear level if possible. Avoid enclosed shelves to prevent bass buildup.

Does the S 52 support bi-wiring?

No, the S 52 has a single set of binding posts for standard single-wiring. Bi-wiring is not supported. Use the supplied jumper plates or a single cable.

What is the impedance of the Jamo S 52?

The impedance is 8 ohms. It is compatible with most AV receivers and amplifiers. Ensure your amplifier can drive 8-ohm loads.

Do I need a subwoofer with the S 52?

While the S 52 can produce moderate bass down to 65 Hz, a subwoofer is recommended for full-range home theater performance, especially for low-frequency effects.

Can I wall-mount the S 52?

Yes, the speaker can be wall-mounted using a compatible bracket. Ensure the bracket supports the weight (11 lbs). Do not attach to drywall without proper anchors.

Is the speaker magnetically shielded?

What warranty comes with the Jamo S 52?
