The Jamo speakers suck.

I wound up buying a set because I was trying to minimize how my space my stuff was taking up and the Jamos are tiny. My current setup is an Onkyo 7 speaker system.

I swapped out the Jamos and the Onkyos to compare and the Onkyos were far and away better; way better mid range and fuller sound. The Jamos will sound tinny and shallow, especially during action sequences.

I guess whether the vol indication is too long is a matter of personal taste. I don’t find it to be either excessively long nor intrusive (it’s a very small black square with the vol level placed at the bottom-right of the screen). I’d say it stays on-screen for about 5 seconds at the longest - not really much longer than the built-in TV indicator, and less annoying.

And I don’t know if it can be disabled.

Overall it is a good receiver, especially for the price.

Thanks!

Bought it last night, can’t wait for it to arrive.

It’s also possible that the wires happen to be the same exact color as the background and blend in so perfectly that they seem like they’re not there. It’s all just a big optical illusion and we’re all falling for it. If that’s the case though, are those chameleon speaker wires included with the speakers?

Good idea for a product! After googling I was saddened that it’s not a thing. My living room would be much better off… Pretty sure I’d start randomly tripping a lot though
