A legendary loudspeaker maker returns – as new product reveal date set

Jamo launch revealed.
Quick Summary

Following its sale from Klipsch owner, Jamo was acquired by new owners in 2024 – and work has been underway behind the scenes to relaunch the brand.

The date for that is now set: with Jamo's new product range due to be revealed at the Vienna High-End show in early June this year.

The Danish loudspeaker-maker will retain some production in its homeland, too, delivering that Scandinavian flair in a new, modernised form.

For many audiophiles, Jamo was a loudspeaker maker that really resonated. Founded in the late 1960s, it was once the largest European speaker manufacturer.

Times change, of course, and just a couple of years back, Jamo was a casualty of its then-owner selling its brands in an acquisition that saw the Danish speaker-maker temporarily disappear.

Well, now Jamo is officially back under new ownership – and has set a return date to show off new products, coinciding with the Vienna High-End Show in early June this year.

Jamo hasn't abandoned its Danish roots under its new Chinese owners either, with some product manufacturing set to continue in the brand's original homeland.

Jamo's return marks a new, modernised focus – with a "renewed focus on design, craftsmanship and the people behind the brand," per the official press release.

Now under the ownership of Cinemaster and Rayleigh Lab – which acquired Jamo back in 2024 – the next phase of what's been going on behind the scenes is almost ready to be revealed.

The promise is for a revival that "places its heritage at the centre of its philosophy," while "embracing contemporary materials, technologies and creative talent from across Europe."

Cinemaster CEO, Xiaodong Yang, has previously worked within the Jamo brand, so understands the brand's origins and strengths. This partnership could therefore sound an interesting new future – as we'll get to see at Vienna High-End.

The reveal will detail that "traditional high-fidelity systems to modern connected solutions and lifestyle products" will all be part of the brand's contemporary new designs.

If Jamo is to compete with many of the speaker-makers of today, then surely it'll be working on powered all-in-one solutions, similar to Cambridge Audio's L/R speaker range. We'll know more come June, so stay tuned.
