Eggleston Oso Speakers Unveiling and Setup
Lady, look in the camera!
Enjoying your walk throughs, hi from Australia 🇦🇺 👍🏻
I've heard of that Pathos. But 308 lbs! I will not complain about my McIntosh monos any more (91.5 lbs each). Being Class A, how much heat does it generate? I'd imagine ventilation is important.
Great looking rooms and products. Thanks for sharing.
I can only imagine what his insurance premiums cost.
Beautiful shop. Excellent brands. Wishing you lots of success!
Well, sadly your setup is completely rookie (not gear). Any trained audio professional would not setup a system in this manner.
What would you do differently? I'm asking to learn.
😂
Imagine growing up listening to conrad johnson😅😅. Lucky son of a gun
Real nice shop. Thanks fo the tour.
Your dad was into conrad johnson! Lucky you. Way to go dad
amazing sound
Only an idiot would include a DAC in an amp like this.
Awesome video Joe, thanks!
Great video and showcase for the brands and products. =)
Very impressed. Excellent variety of equipment. You have something from every price range. Quality is outstanding as well.
Amazing video. You really have a great store with some of the best brands in the world. Especially T+A, which to me make the best stuff out there. I personally own the PA3100HV with the PS3000HV driving Focal Scala Evo and I wouldn’t trade this system for anything else out there.
Thanks Paul, I'm glad to see your comments, and equally happy to hear that you are enjoying the Scalas with T+A. The Focal/T+A combination feels like one of the best kept secrets in Hi-Fi. Those T+A M 40 HV monoblocks absolutely kill it with the Grande Utopias, and the A 3000 HV and PA 3100 HV work exceptionally well with the Scalas, Maestros and Stellas (I monoblocked the A 3000 HV)
What, what, what, no Stax head phones? Shame on you! 🤭
Dude 😮very very COOL 😎
Thank you Carmine!
You hooked me with the Stenheim Reference and Focal Grande Utopia. I guess I'll be visiting my old buddy who lives in Jacksonville sometime soon. The three hour drive from Clearwater to your store will surely be worthwhile. I'm actually interested in the Viva amps. Please don't tell Mike at Suncoast. He takes cheating customers very personal, just kidding.
Hey David, hope you guys are ok from the flooding! Please come visit! No shop can stock every brand, so we are happy to show off the items that might not be found down south.
Great video, interested in sourcing your acoustic treatments . Information pls.
Thank you for reaching out! We have a number of products to manage your room from a number of brands, with designs to fit every aesthetic. The best thing to do is email us a photo of your room and system to sales@houseofstereo.com and then call us at (904) 642-6677 to discuss.
Great presentation
Thanks!
Just boxes 📦 no panels & subs 😮
We can't fit it all of our products into the video, and we are kicking ourselves that we left out the Electrocompaniet separates and integrateds, as well as the REL No 31's and the Muraudio panels. Look for us to cover some of that in an upcoming video.
are you guys copy new york?
We have a lot of clients in New York and make trips up there every couple months. How can we help?
Thanks for sharing. Incredible.
Thank you! It is definitely a labor of love and we are pretty proud of it!
Great video Joe! Audio Group Denmark always has amazing sound at Axpona. Glad to see a great dealership in Florida carrying the line.
Thank you! Please come visit anytime! We'll buy lunch!
@@houseofstereojax I definitely will if get to your part of Florida. I did enjoy some Whiskey in your Axpona room about two years ago listening to Whiskey and you on your Wolf system.
NICE! My first audiophile system Hegel H90, Focal Electra 1008BE’s, Sound Anchor stands, Node 2i, Cardas speaker cables, Audioquest power conditioner. Loved “I kind of unlearned my preference for separates with the H590.”
Congrats! Looks fantastic! Love Triangle and Denmark Audio Group. My only suggestion would be to switch the Access Forte to an Aavik U280 integrated to drive the Borresen Silver 05. The Access leaves a lot to be desired. Holy Moly…PATHOS! Beautiful amps. I could tell how excited you are in that high end room. Is that a Rogers integrated tube amp on the middle shelf in the front of the store? Jeezus… on top of all that went before…A dedicated Focal and Naim room with Grand Utopias!
Don't worry, the Silver Supremes are driven by a P-580 most days. We move equipment around the shop every day to do demo's for people wanting to hear specific combinations, and that is just where things ended up that day. Thank you for the complements!
I’m flying over from Australia and moving in
If you can grill, the invitation is open!
Just one small detail. The Grado company is pronounced like...GRAYDOH . Nice video, btw.
Yep, we know Mrs. Grado, who lives here in Jacksonville now. I find that when you are in the thick of it it’s easy to misspeak!
I agree with the skepticism. Joe Parvey is a struggling shop owner who refused to service the $7,500 server I bought from him, among other gear and cables, because I didn’t buy a piece of gear from him after that, even though he didn’t have it in stock, audition it for me, offer a price, or a trade, and was never there when I came on to listen. Buyer beware.
I saw and heard these loudspeakers as part of the Denmark Audio Group's display at High End Munich 2023. Honestly, they sounded exceptionally good, but being Borresen my immediate thought was 'way out of my price range'. When I saw the price, placed on a small white card alongside the bottom of the speakers on the floor, I was confused ... €10,000? Surely not? I asked the Borresen representative who was running the demonstration and he confirmed the price as exactly that figure. Really nice loudspeakers from a great designer (Michael Borresen) who previously ran Raidho loudspeakers. If and when I need to replace my existing speakers, this model is certainly on my list of contenders. Mind you, the price has gone up since 2023. I think even Borresen itself was overwhelmed with the great response to this 'entry level' loudspeaker. In a word, beautiful!
Overpriced rubbish
Good amp pairings and don't say the Forte line. I don't like how they don't have balanced inputs for those who already have good external dacs.
I actually have your old personal Me1’s. Have you ever used any Isoaccoustics Gaii for the stands on a solid floor? Do you recommend them or something or just have them sitting on floor. Great set of speakers. I am using a Hegel H590 to drive them with two Rel T7x in a small room.😊
Do you have them in white?
Sure looks like a Stella Utopia EM EVO rather than a Grande Utopia EM EVO, which has 5 drivers, is taller and weight well over 500 lbs.
If you keep watching, you’ll see us install the top driver!
everyone's shilling for Borrenensen this week/month. All the audiophile vlogs are reviewing everything Borrenensen and claiming that they are the latest, greatest thing ever. It's very, very strange that they are ALL reviewing the entire Borrenensen line of equipment, all at the same time. Sounds to me like Borrenensen is paying everyone to review and rave about their equipment. Audiophiles are notoriously finicky and seldom agree on the time of day, let alone anything more substantial. I think they're all being paid by Borrenensen to review and praise their equipment right now.
I shared your sentiment completely. I figured here is just another “flavor of the month” product/brand with reviewers probably being paid or receiving free gear as compensation. Though that may be true, I finally heard these in person and they do indeed compete with speakers around twice the price. I wouldn’t say they sound like $150K, but they are definitely up there with the $20K/pair stuff I’ve heard.
The speaker is on my shortlist after listening to it at an audio file event here in Costa Mesa a few months ago. All of my effort now is going into trying to par it with the right power amp. Hegel or Griffon are on my short list but there are others. We never got to see the back of the speakers. In general, how much more is it going to run for the cables, the power supply, the amp, etc.
Nice set up boys and not one of you was wearing gloves?!? Absolute perfection in every way. They command attention.
The flat baffle with square edges is more likely to compromise the image due to diffraction effects than are adding a few more parts in the crossover ;)
Rubbish
Claims a guy who is apparently either deaf or has never heard them. Lol
Costs more than my house lol
Bart saved the Day 😊
Look but don’t touch guy!
why shit music for this video ?????
That's simply not true about thicker aluminium having more damping. Just look at how thick a bell is and how much it resonates to know that this statement is totally misleading !! Why are they using paper diaphragms in their drivers and not aluminium ??
LOL Thicker the metal the less vibration [bell width determines note]. Paper cones for a natural tone.
@@saint6563 The thickness of a church bell at its thickest part (the "sound bow") is usually one thirteenth its diameter.
Bell's are made of bronze if I'm not mistaken.
@@nudebaboon4874 Yes bronze is a metal like aluminium ;)
Great video review. Love seeing Jasmin getting more involved.
They sound fantastic 🎶
Stunning.
My Focal N1s are hanging their heads in shame behind me as I watch this 🤣🤣 They look great. I can't believe how big they are! They dwarf the orange N2/3s you have in the room!!!!
Don’t feel that way! Your N1’s share DNA with these speakers, and sound as good as they do thanks to the Utopia line!
