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!
Hi 👋, I am new to your music room, They look amazing, I can’t wait to hear them, through my recently rebuilt transmission line, loudspeaker cabinets, with Seal driver unit, PHIL FROM THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOULIN FRANCE,
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!
Wow! Finally someone in Jacksonville that carries Focal products. Are you guys done with the showrooms? Looking forward to stopping by and checking it out if it's all completed.
Looks like I will driving three hours from Clearwater to visit my Navy vet buddy, and check out the Grande. He will probably f... with me saying: that I'm too deaf from my Marine Corps days.
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.
Nice pal. I have a pair,too. Mine I wired up with transparent gen 6 magnum opus cablings, especially, two pair of Magnum Opus. And Boulder 3000 aeries preamplifier 3010 and 3050.
In a recent conversation we had with Jeff (Boulder,) he described the Grande Utopia's as one of the best speakers in the world. We know Boulder voicing is done with the Grande Utopia's, so there a big vote of confidence!
@@jackhuang1434 Not at all Jack, we are agreeing with you! Jeff's enthusiasm about the GU's is what convinced us to take the plunge! I'm happy to have your comments here!
@@bryanguest2807 I think that that is just a human condition, and any group of passionate people formed around a shared interest could boast the same! 🙂
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.
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.

I can’t imagine owning these and I have a beautiful system myself. This is the pinnacle
A Masterpiece! both visually and aurally...
Wow the level of finish on these is spectacular, I would love to listen to a few of my favourite albums through these beauties.
Beautiful finish!
OMG!!! Oh Lottery Gods, wherefore art thou!! I would not hesitate!
We’ll put in a good word for you when we pray tonight!
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!
These are for Sure Pretty and have a Superior Quality Crossover adjusting Built in , Very Nice! THEY ARE MONSTEROUSLY COOL!

Nice set up boys and not one of you was wearing gloves?!?
Absolute perfection in every way. They command attention.
Very nice, must come up and see you guys in the future. -DS/Naples Fl.
We'd love for you to visit!
Stunning.
Un vrai déménagement pour ces enceintes de prestige 😊
Man They are beautiful
I’m very happy with my JBL HDI 3800’s, but these Focals are just 😍

Woof. Stunning. I better subscribe, please carry on!
Thank you, Dana!
These vs Sonus Faber Aida ii or Magico M9?
magnifico.❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥

Hi Juan! Our showroom is ready! We're located at 3110 Beach Blvd, come on by!
Looks like I will driving three hours from Clearwater to visit my Navy vet buddy, and check out the Grande. He will probably f... with me saying: that I'm too deaf from my Marine Corps days.
Ha! Lunch is on us.
How many drivers you need - Yes!
If only! But my wife foolishly wants to blow our money on a HOUSE! smh
You should tell her a home is where the heart is, and your heart is with these 6’7” speakers!
Beasts!
How does this work do you get them on consignment or do you have to pay for them and hopefully sell them

How much it's cost....
what song at 1:40?
А, вот как надо ценный груз выгружать из машины😳
А у нас скидывают на покрышку от трактора
Sweet
Cool
Are the Grand Utopia's as bright as the lower priced Focal speakers?
Por favor, guantes finos para manipular los altavoces 😢
End game. You can go no further.

@@houseofstereojax say what ever you want, I am just happy that you have a pair, too. You don't have to be hot about it.

@@houseofstereojax great pick appearance. Congratulations 🎉
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!
Definitely not worth the price, but super cool speakers either way.
Hope for you your room is acoustically treated! Otherwise you wont hear your 200k. A 15k Speaker would probably sound better in a well treated room
Costs more than my house lol
Way too small for $280,000 per pair. At least other $250,000 speakers are bigger than these.
But they don't sound anywhere as good as the Focal!!!
Cosmos...
why shit music for this video ?????
You guys are making me sick. You dhould be using gloves to handle these unbelievable giants.
We agree! After the polish-up, nobody is allowed to touch them without gloves!
Brutal annoying music
Sorry Smood, that's a DRM-free track that we added in place of silence. When we do some listening videos, we promise to pick better tunes.
Being an Audiophile has nothing to do with actually enjoying music, we mostly judge other peoples purchases and complain about our wife

They sound bright and ear fatigue at the show. Not for me.
