(PAIR) Jamo Studio Series S801 Bookshelf Speakers

Are they powered? You’ve only shown the back of one speaker and the specs do not mention anything. It’s unclear if the powered models elsewhere are the same as these.

They are passive. NO internal amp. Excellent little speaks!

Thanks. Yes I see now they do not have the “PM” designation.

I bought these last time around for my daughter so I could take back some Focals I had been letting her use. These are absurdly nice for this price, with some high-end features like magnetic grille covers. They are rear ported, but still don’t have huge bass due to their size, like almost all other bookshelf size speakers…yay, physics. But, these have really nice sound…pretty neutral. For the money, I don’t think you could buy a nicer/better speaker.
