EPI speaker question

[erniejade]

Does anyone know what the model number of this EPI speaker?

I have a chance to pick up a set but I have no idea what the model is beyond EPI.

The Epicure 1. Found it. Thanks for the help!! Do you or anyone know if this speaker is ok without the SPEQ™ (Speaker Placement Equalizer)?
It does not seem like the seller has speq.

Thanks again

Are you sure they're not the model 500? http://www.humanspeakers.com/e/epi500.htm

Nope. That's a pic of the Epicure 1. Check out the top surface, and the badge, at the bottom.

 

[DaCarlson]

Ah, I see. My mistake.

 

[luvvinvinyl]

Np.

 

[erniejade]

any opinions on them? I am going tonight or tomorrow to hear them. It looks like they came with a optional eq but the seller does not have it.
How is the construction of this unit? http://www.humanspeakers.com/e/epicure-1.htm


I will be compairing them my JBL L150 as a reference.

Thanks for the opionions.

I bet they don't compare with those JBL's you got such a great deal on. I'll trade you a Sound Design boombox for them though. Brad

All of the EPIs I've heard have been very sweet sounding, non fatiguing speakers, smooth and well balanced.

 

[erniejade]

Sound Design? Emerson all the way!

I will have to check them out. If they sound better then my L150's..... :tears:

 

[BrocLuno]

Oh they will if they are not in trouble mechanically or have some internal issue? You can live without the eq. But you may start looking for one if you get them. Always nice to be able to "tune" your speaker response

I love my model 500's. I don't know how your model compares, but if there even close and the price is right I would jump on it.
