Like The Shape

I bought this because I like the shape of it. It saves a lot of floor space. But for sound, I wasn't that impressed compared to the usual square subwoofer. I mean it sounds good, but it lacks the deep bass sound that a square unit has. But if you are looking for something that sounds decent and saves you some space, then this is what you need.

Great Purchase Decision

The Jamo S 808 exceeded my expectations. I replaced an old 12? subwoofer with this 8? speaker and this product delivered the deep base I demand. The combination of audio quality and price point made this purchase an exceptional value.

Great Little Sub

Was pretty surprised how good it sounds for such a small package. Ended up replacing one huge 12" sub with two 8", and really like the sound, overall better.

Cost-effective!

This sub is both attractive and effective, which is a shock considering how affordable it is. We put it under our couch for now for added bass during movies, but may move it to a corner if the soundstage is lacking. I'm far from an audiophile, but this sub added a good balance to bass for our system.

Subwoofer that can

Pretty good base, more than enough for my sizeable room. Packs a thump! I have it connected to sound bar with included cable. Auto mode seems to work fine. Note though that size is pretty big, good part is it is not deep and saves on floor space.

Great subwoofer

Nice and compact design and very clean aesthetic which I really like. And most importantly, it provides nice clean bass without any sort of hum.

Great

Excellent product at an excellent price. The output is great, and it's a lot more visually appealing and less obtrusive than most other subwoofers. However, for my specific application, it's hidden behind my elevated, corner tv setup resting on top of a few shelf brackets I installed on the wall. It's slim profile makes it very versatile in terms of placement. I was going to buy a subwoofer labeled as wall-mountable, But found this Jamo to be more practical since the woofer fires outward, and the controls would be accessible since they are on the bottom of the unit.

Good- but watch for damage

This thing is great- paired with Wharfedale diamond 11.2s. Gets more than loud enough for my office setup. For the price, it’s a no-brainer. Took off a star because it arrived with cosmetic damage.

Slim, with lots of body

Bought two at the price Adorama was offering. What a deal! These slim form factor subs pack a punch, and fill the room with nice low frequencies. I wish the they crossed over at a lower freq., but alas at 8inch, these really do shine.

Would get another one

It is very low profile, looks good, and is wife approved! Only downside is the manual doesn't describe all the buttons on the back. Oh well.

Very good bass!

Punchy and deep. Makes all the difference on Atmos material and films like Transformers 3. Very tight bass definition. Mateches my 709's perrfectly.

Budget bass booster

I bought this subwoofer with less expectations. It actually beat my expectations. I wanted a narrow woofer for to space issues. Nice thing, it came with the needed wire to connect to your reciever. In my previous purchase of expensive subwoofer (Klipsch), I didn't get the cable. This is a nice gesture. Overall I am happy to raise the bass and I could see the audio difference. I am using this in my living room for daily TV watching. On a side note, this woofer got minor scratches on shipping, which adorama addressed with partial refund

Great sounding compact sub!

This narrow profiled Jamo sub fits discreetly in my medium size LR and blended superbly sonically with my NHT super zeroes. Very happy with this purchase. It's good look is a bonus.

Great price, feel and style

This is perfect for a smaller family room and provides a good feel for the space. It has adjustments on the device itself and the color scheme blends easily with most decor.

Powerful Punch in a Sleek Design

Recently remodeled our media room and wanted surround sound but didn't have the space for large speakers. The Jamo S 808 SUB 100W 8" Subwoofer was the perfect choice. It's slim and sleek with the power, RCA connector and volume controls all located on the bottom of the unit. This helps hid all the wires and allows you to place the speaker closer to a wall or furniture. The sound is very impressive and full which is surprising given the 8" speaker. Easy to setup and connect to my receiver and looks great. It's setup with 2 pairs of Jamo 8.5CS 8" 2-Way In-Ceiling Speakers for front and rear sound. The combination is outstanding and I'm ver pleased with my purchase as well as the service from Adorama.

Great value

Best bang for the buck. I love the size and how easy it is to find a space for. Better than the sub it replaced.

Very nice for the price, just wish it was a little smaller

I still wish I could get a subwoofer that's a bit smaller for less than many hundreds of dollars for my small apartment but so far I'm very happy with this subwoofer. I would recommend getting a proper subwoofer cable instead of the RCA cable that comes with it because that definitely improved performance. I wish the settings weren't on the bottom, that gets a bit tiresome for adjustments. I use this turned down extremely low just so I can hear the basslines on my records at a normal listening volume and it has quite a kick. I can't imagine if I turned it up all the way.

Size doesn’t matter

I have a floating shelf in the living room and I had to compromise with the size of the subwoofer. I found this to be able to fit under neath it and the sounds is great for the size. It has comes in a modern style.

Sub with versatile shape

This sub is a nice size and shape that makes is versatile to place in a number of places. Pretty full sound with a wide range for cross-over frequency selection. it lacks punch, but given the size, it has an acceptable trade-off. I purchased this sub on sale, which made it a good value.

I bought one then another...

Its good and compact. Does the job nicely, little feedback when the receiver is powered off, but its easy to turn on and off the power to the sub when not in use.

Jamo S 808 SUB "Jams!"

Great subwoofer. I have a JBL stereo system and my subwoofer went out. Didn't want to spend a whole lot of $$ so I saw this deal and bought it. Great buy. Sounds excellent with my system. Family said "Wow".

Compact performer

Excellent performance out of such a compact subwoofer. Its slim shape enables more flexible placement in our living room and it looks pretty sharp to boot so it's wife-approved.
