What I love about Kevin's videos- passion, knowledge, and sincerity. He's irreplaceable.

[@CarlVanDoren61]

He's a tool in the worst way 😮

[@erics.4113]

Everyone is replaceable.. just ask your boss 😝

[@SpyderTracks]

@@erics.4113 Urm, Kevin is the boss. He doesn't need replacing, it's one of the best Audio outfits in the US and internationally.

[@SpyderTracks]

Ash, you may not be comfortable in front of the camera but you come across incredibly well, as always, pure passion and low level understanding. Very cool!

[@upscaleaudio]

Ash is the best!

[@paulmorawczynski5994]

Great to see Ash on camera.

[@PabloConcrete]

Thank you Ash for sharing your knowledge and real life experience owning Focal beauties with us! You did great!

[@12rubyrose]

That is such a gorgeous speaker. I own the utopia diablo evo, fantastic speaker . Same finish as these. I'm saving for these. Wonderful introduction too. Thank you Kevin and Ash.

Hi-Fi is a much richer hobby because of Kevin Deal. I was hooked on his personality by the humorous ads he placed in the eighties and the more I read about him the more I thought highly of him. Audio is his life-long passion and it shows. Products like this Utopia Evo still get the man excited and I love the way he explains and conveys that excitement. For him I get the feeling it's not about breaking profit margins, but staying solvent while sharing the art of amazing fidelity and moving it forward. The man is approachable, and in the high-end this isn't always true. Another great video Kevin.

I just got a pair of active ATC speakers with the 12” driver after a long speaker journey. The most amazing sounding speakers I have ever heard. My subjective opinion vs the Focal’s I heard. If you are in the speaker hunt DO NOT miss an opportunity to audition ATC active speakers.

make and model of your shoes ??

[@paulupton7698]

7:25 I always laugh at a pair of loudspeakers with a quoted price of $50,000 a pair is a steal at $40, 000! As long as you have a painted finish! 😂😂😂😂

[@TeressaWI8777]

Great video. For home theater use between watching sports on live tv and watching movies.. would kanta 3s or aria/evo line be most enjoyable and flexible in a very large kitchen/living room with tall ceilings

[@garysmith8455]

Beryllium, I winced when I saw Kevin handling it like a piece of aluminum foil. Isn't that a poisonous material ?? BE CAREFUL Mr. Deal !

[@justadad2304]

Finally, a price I can afford 🤣

[@AN-ce1nd]

My Electra’s are fantastic but once in a while it gets a bit fatiguing

[@danieldavis8963]

Hi AN-ce1ed which model Electra do you have.thanks

[@vincentdragani9888]

Hey Kevin, how about lending me them for a few days for a test drive??

[@sandmanoseven]

Still rocking my 836V a great speakers, but doesn’t touch these.

[@DearSX]

Beautiful speakers, $20k would be a better price.

[@JezJerzy22]

What is name of this TUBE wall lamp? :)

[@upscaleaudio]

I will ask!

[@nirodha35]

Hate the extremely visible screws. You can do that for a 10k speaker but not for this price

[@Novilicious]

This is a really good deal!!! $40 K for this ain’t bad at all!!

[@CarlVanDoren61]

20.7s w 2-Rel Carbon Specials JLA cr-1 active crossover Coda Ts v3 800w@4ohm Sonically better @ $35kish

Waste of money. 💩

[@mpi5850]

Thanks for that little troll.

[@Ma-pz5kl]

useless video if you don t demo the music sound !!!!

[@Stikibits]

A sound demo would be worth far more than all that yapping.

[@engulfaudioable]

Demo from your phone? Sure thing

[@paulupton7698]

Well said 👏

[@justadad2304]

Feel free to setup an appointment, travel to Upscale, and demo them.
