.

After running in you get a tight, tuneful and really well controlled bottom end. These speakers are full of drive and energy, boasting plenty of character, but never producing any aggressive-sounding hard edges, no matter what the musical style. The soft-dome tweeter (and crossover) didn’t exaggerate already harsh and bright recordings there’s nothing worse than a top-end that shrieks. To the contrary, the Epic 2’s are far more refined and even-sounding here, but with excellent clarity, and the ability to present music in an emotional rather than technical manner (which, no matter the style, always suits the music better).

With the Epos Epic 2, Mike Creek has a hit on his hands. It’s the perfect bookshelf speaker for someone who wants the bass and high-level dynamic performance of a floorstander, but either has cost constraints or a spouse who won’t let anything bigger than a bookshelf into the house. And while some costs have been cut in the cosmetics department, the Epic 2 does not look cheap. I believe any Stereophile reader would be proud to have these attractive little beauties in his or her living room. Hats off to Mike Creek, who continues to raise the bar of sound quality per dollar in affordable loudspeakers.

For $799/pair, what you get in the Epos Epic 2 is remarkable.
For starters, I found the Epic 2 very much at home with classical music. This is not to say they’re for classical music only, but you know what I mean. They were lively, but at the same time non fatiguing. It’s a matter of tonal balance, and the Epic 2 nailed it. No edginess, no excessive brightness, no clarity achieved at the expense of brittle sound. I haven’t heard the other models in the Epic series.
Try as hard as I could, I could find nothing at all irritating about the Epic 2: nothing that kept reminding me I was listening to a pair of inexpensive, if not dirt-cheap, speakers. No obvious colorations. No excessive bloom or boominess in the bass. No top-end tizz. The Epic 2 was beautifully balanced, as I said. The pair of them was capable of reproducing a very wide, deep soundstage and precise imaging.
