    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!!!!

      That’s a lot of words to put into the mouths of people you don’t know. This really isn’t a constructive comment to foster a discussion, and that’s what we look for in our comment section. The equalizer you refer to is more of a crossover network.

      @houseofstereojax I will agree on your comment 99%! Also never said they were Bad Speakers , but being consistently Told " your system can't compare" because of the Money Factor gets Old, also if you or anyone else want to Have Equalization in a system than that is AWESOME, these Speakers are AWESOME too. I guess my reaction was the product of "CERTAIN" Audiophiles that consistently put Down The People that Can't afford a 300 to 500k System that there is no way my ( mine and 90% of the HiFi ) enthusiasts who Love Awesome sound don't know what they are , doing, Talking about and can't possibly know what Great Sound is. Will remove the first comment so as not to Stir up the Pot!!! Will do it in a bit because apparently all the replies will be gone to, maybe I'll just delete Most of it!

    I’m very happy with my JBL HDI 3800’s, but these Focals are just 😍

    • @houseofstereojax
      @houseofstereojax  Před rokem +2

      The 3800's are a good speaker. We'd be happy to show you around the shop to compare notes. What is nice about Focal is that the sonic character remains the same all the way down the line. Ultimately, the approach and execution in design language (drivers and cabinets) helps to create a brands sonic signature, and the lessons learned from the Utopia line trickle down all the way to Vestia and Theva. Another example of an excellent manufacturer creating specific cabinet and driver design across a product suite is Eggleston Works. Their angular approach to the cabinet makes them instantly recognizable and creates a sense of space and realism that I attribute to all Eggleston models. Come visit!

    How does this work do you get them on consignment or do you have to pay for them and hopefully sell them

    • @houseofstereojax
      @houseofstereojax  Před rokem +1

      There are many ways. We love the opportunity to take things on consignment, but of course it varies depending on the manufacturer and the situation. We’ve made a significant capital investment in building a showroom to serve the North Florida region, and putting a few world class stereo systems together to boot! Stop in if you are nearby. We’ll be having a few opening events that we’ll advertise soon.

      We'd like to invite you down then. In my experience, I have found that poor performance at a show is not indicative of poor performance everywhere. Too many unknown factors, with at most two days of prep time ahead of a show can lead to unexpected results, even from setup experts more skilled than we.

    • @theoracleprodigy
      @theoracleprodigy Před rokem +1

      Focal is one of the few speakers that doesn't roll off the tweeter. So what you hear sounds unnatural compared to most other manufacturers. You can sit off axis from the tweeters which will make them less harsh. Personally I love them.
