Kudos Titan T88 and Olive

Posted by: davidf on 14 January 2019

I will shortly being getting a home demo of the Titan`s .  I have a very large room (30ftx20ft with very high cathedral ceilings to 16ft).  My current speakers are Focal 1038be`s.  I use CDS2, 01 tuner, 52/135s.  I have been told that my current electronics will easily drive the Titans.

I am looking forward to the demo.  Any thoughts on these Titans?   David

Having listened to all the Titans at various times, I have really enjoyed all of them. For me, the 808s were hugely better than the 707 and smaller models, though. But then, I am one of those who cannot abide the sound of any Focals I’ve heard, so if you like yours, perhaps you will see things differently. Good luck, hope you enjoy them.

Thanks but I’m looking at the 88’s- the predecessor to the 808’s

I was a little distracted when writing that last post, I might add that I did hear the 88s too, although it wasn’t a proper long listen, and it was a different room and system, I’d say they are still great performers in a similar mould to the 808s.
