Got this set to replace a Energy 5.1 Take Classic about 4 months ago. Extremely impressed. I still use the Energy's sub with the Jamo's. Dialog is clear even at low volumes, music, games and movies sound great. I have these in an oversized room and they easily fill the room with sound without becoming distorted at higher volume.
Only negatives are the speakers are a bit large (compared to the Energy set), it doesn't come with a dedicated sub (although the speakers themselves have nice bass response). and Jamo seems to be discontinuing some of the accessories like the attachable Atmos speakers.
Sony Core series speakers cost quite a bit more though
Just got the center for $50 at best buy open box. online I see the bookshelves excellent for $90 I think all it takes is a good deal like amazon did a few months back. So yes more expensive but I think worth it

How much better are these (when paired with the atmos speakers and a matching sub) compared to the this Monoprice set[monoprice.com]?
Also this is the best price I found for speaker wire 500' 14 gauge for $73: https://www.ebay.com/itm/23489382...SwS6hkEUlB
They used to have 100' for $14 when you bought 4+ but that deal ended.

I bought the white set on the last deal that was $4 more and they are very good speakers! You're going to need a sub with them, but cross the mains at 80hz and you're still getting punchy bass out of them. My amplifier runs hotter with these, I am going to say that they are considerable less than 8ohm, probably 6ohm.

Do you need that much wire? Are you going to be running it through the walls?
You probably don't need 14 gauge.
got 3 cheap bt 5.1 amps from aliexpress for $7 a pop, some cheap 24v psus, broke these up into 3 sets of cheap bt speakers, spent less than $200 total for 3 sets of pretty decent living room and workshop speakers

I found this review helpful when I was researching this set.

You might consider this, much less expensive.

I have 2 runs at around 70' and one run at about 50' I am also setting up another room in the future that will likely have similar lengths.
They also have 100' rolls for $24 which is cheaper than that 16 gauge from Amazon: https://www.ebay.com/itm/39439210...SwEi
