Полочная акустика — Jamo mini MKII

The mini MKII is the smallest active speaker pair in the Jamo C700 family, described by the Danish brand as almost as small as an A6 page. It was announced on 4 November 2025 alongside the larger C705PA MKII, with a launch price of USD 349 or EUR 349 per pair and AUD 699 in Australia. Packed, the pair weighs 4.1 kg in a carton of 354 x 223 x 280 mm. Jamo positions it for desks, TV sets and gaming corners where a compact footprint matters more than deep bass extension.

Key specs that matter

Inside each small ported cabinet are two drivers - a 78 mm woofer and a 20 mm tweeter, crossed over at 2,500 Hz. Jamo quotes a bandwidth of 100 Hz to 20 kHz within 3 dB and a sensitivity of 82 dB at 2.83 V and 1 m. A Class D amplifier delivers 2 x 35 W. Each speaker measures 160 mm high, 100 mm wide and 135 mm deep, and the net weight of the pair is 3.3 kg. Standby consumption is below 0.5 W.

Engineering and use context

Fiberglass forms the woofer cone, a material Jamo picked for fast transient response and low distortion. The tweeter uses a high-density NdFeB magnet and sits in what Jamo calls a Micro Horn WaveGuide. Bluetooth 5.3 streaming supports SBC and AAC - a newer radio version than the 5.0 module in the C705PA MKII, though without aptX - and wired inputs include USB audio, a 3.5 mm jack and HDMI TV ARC, so a laptop, a phone and a television can be connected at the same time. Power comes from an included external 18 V DC supply rated for 100 to 120 V at 60 Hz or 220 to 240 V at 50 Hz. The box contains grilles, a remote control, a power cord, a cable linking the two speakers and pads. Six finishes are offered - black, white, yellow, eucalyptus and pink in high gloss, plus matte white.

Pairing

The limited bass extension reflects the small cabinet and driver, so the stereo RCA subwoofer output, working from 20 Hz to 220 Hz, is the main path for extending the system with an active subwoofer. With its modest power and low sensitivity, the pair fits near-field listening at a desk or beside a monitor more than filling a large room. HDMI ARC makes the pair a compact alternative to a soundbar for a bedroom TV, and USB audio lets a computer feed the speakers without a separate DAC. There is no RCA or optical input, so a CD player or turntable needs to use the analogue jack.

Alternatives

The Jamo C705PA MKII steps up in size, pairing a 105 mm woofer and 2 x 45 W of Class D amplification.
