Discover Octavio's story
Octavio was born in two apartments in Lille.
The two founders, David and Victor, had old vintage audio systems that their parents had left them, but which were no longer compatible with their way of listening to music: via streaming platforms.
Rather than throw away these old systems they were very attached to, they decided to find an alternative solution. What if the right idea was simply to update them, rather than replace them?
After months of prototyping and a successful Kickstarter campaign, Octavio Stream was born.
Today, more than 3,000 customers around the world have upgraded their installations with Octavio technology.
Octavio is above all a team of music lovers with a common desire: to make the world of high fidelity accessible and democratic.

Birth of the Project
Still music students at the University of Lille, David and Victor, the founders of Octavio, are both faced with the same problem. They have Hi-Fi systems that sound perfect, but which are no longer compatible with their way of listening to music.They have two alternatives: replace their current system with a high-end connected speaker or upgrade their installation.
Replacing an existing system is ecological nonsense, and their student budget at the time prevents them from upgrading to audiophile gear.
So why not create the solution?

Release of Octavio Stream
After 3 years of R&D and a difficult year of production during the pandemic, Octavio Stream is born thanks to a participative financing campaign.Octavio Stream allows to give life to an existing installation, while taking into account the audiophile needs of the customers and the environmental issues of the project. The product is marketed at 199 euros, a price that seemed and still seems to us the fairest possible.
The first users are conquered, the press surprised and the requests for distribution accumulate...
The project is launched and the product validated.

Octavio Amp release
Following the success of our first product, the team expands and the company becomes more structured. The idea of a second product quickly materializes at the request of many customers and users. The conception of Octavio Amp is therefore natural and completes the brand's offer.In order to meet the needs of customers who only have passive speakers, Octavio Amp is the ideal product. A compact and connected product par excellence, it uses the Octavio technology and builds on the success of our first product.
Available in many stores in France and abroad, Octavio Amp has also seduced the press and hundreds of customers.

This speaker is a concentrate of technology and represents the spirit of the brand, between modernity and Hi-Fi heritage.
