Osborne Loudspeakers Owners & Discussion Thread

Not using the Eos Reference Elite but did demo them back to back with the Eos Reference and the Titans.... I went with the Titans as they did everything just so much better, not that either of the Eos models were bad but the Titans were producing a certain something that no standmount speaker should be capable of. I run mine about 35cms out from the rear wall, so pretty close to the suggested. 20-30cm and they, like the Eos, have a very wide sweet spot, with no toe in required. I cannot comment on how they might perform with the LM805 but I can tell you that combined with C -
Looked at the Vinyl, most of what I wanted was either Out of Stock or still a bit expensive, ended up with 17 CD's for under $80 though so very happy with that.

I had never thought too much of this album compared to the other Steely Dan recordings I have. However, listening to in on my current set up for the first time has drawn me into it like never before.

So I am at about the 3 month stage now and everything is well and truly run in. And a little tube rolling has occurred too, courtesy of the the classifieds here. First up was the 12AX7/ECC83 with the stock JJ ECC83S being replaced by a Brimar 12AX7 long black plate and this immediately gave the impression a veil had been lifted from in front of the speakers. And just this week the supplied Electro Harmonix 12AU7’s made way to a pair of mid sixties Mullards. Wow! There is now a level of detail, crispness, subtle nuances in voices and instruments that has blown me away. Not to menti -
Slipping into Saturday arvo. Beautifully dynamic recording on this, perfect for testing out the new to me 60’s vintage Mullard 12au7’s.

Can’t go past a bit of Jackson Browne on a Thursday evening.

Probably completely unrelated, but could the interference be caused by something else somewhere? I recently changed my phono stage and had a similar (but not identical) humming/buzzing/static sound issue..... after a lot of head scratching, hair pulling and changing over of connections etc it turned out the be the Powerline LAN setup I had running. Replaced the Powerline adapters with a Mesh Wifi throughout the house and problem solved.

Sure have, 1953 12ax7 black long plate thanks to @MoveD.

Osborn Titans made here in Melbourne, great sound and the finish on them puts most other furniture to shame. Also Osborne speaker cable and RCA interconnect. -

Picked these Titans up from Greg a couple of months ago, along with an amp and phono stage. Pat Cummins bowling the Indian captain in the reflection!
