CM Eos Review...
From the original Analog Industries archive. Some links and images from that era no longer resolve.
CM gave Eos a glowing review, and the entire text, with some new audio samples on the second page, is on the Music Radar site. Go forth.
Interestingly, they prefer the plate to the hall. I’m curious as to how many people here agree with that assessment. When we were designing it, I was all about the Superhall algo. That’s what we asked Sean to make, and what we spent the most time on. The plate wasn’t an afterthought or anything; it got the same love and attention, but it was definitely not the raison d’étre for the plug-in in the first place. The goal was to make an Enoesque/Buddian reverb, since such a thing didn’t really exist.

I use Superhall a lot when I'm going for a real effect, and not a subtle way to put some air around samples.
Actually my favorite AD chain -- which I have to force myself not to use too often -- is Dubstation16->Fluid->Eos, with 70% regen in dubstation, slow mod in Fluid, and Hall with long decay and medium modulation. Whatever you play into it turns into a big fluffy bed of sound you can sink into.
I like both, but I think I agree with them about the Plate. Certainly, I use it much more often.
Superhall was the reason I bought it, but damn you can get some great Seefeel style kicks with the plate.
simply depends on what the reviewer ate on that day.
i will get eos soon.....the freeze function will get abused over here....

The Eos algorithms are like my children. I loves them all!
(I have some opinions, but will wait for other people to chime in, as I am kinda biased...)
Superhall is the lushest; it's the one that pulls you in. I'm finding I use the plates a lot too, though.
Looks like Robert Rich is using Eos :

it's entry #69
@chaircrusher: Dude, would it be possible to hear a sample of that?
i'm 50/50 between plate2 and superhall. the plate gets lots of drum verb use and superhall is my go-to end-of-vocal-phrase-bloom-into-a-cloud-of-audio-yum.
I love the superhall! great job w/ this one!
