EPI 100's are great! I think they tend to get overshadowed by Dynacos, AR's, Advents, etc. The thing is, EPI's have a MUCH more modern, transparent, and dynamic sound than those, like Dynacos. I can see how this may not jive for someone looking for the popular stereotypical "vintage" sound. A couple of years ago, Stereophile had a small list of vintage gear (about 15 components) that not only sounded good, but also measured well. EPI 100's were on that list.

Good luck with the sale. Cool stuff.

Ditto on the EPI 100!!

They were the first pair of speakers I ever bought based on my uncle's recommendation, and I regret not having them today. I was gifted a pair of the old EPI inverted dome tweeters and was going to get the Human woofers to build a pair, but one of the tweeters got damaged so that fell by the wayside.

Tempting sale, but I'm trying to clear out some of my equipment right now. I will pass it on to a friend that is looking, however.

Good Luck!
