***SOLD***
First owner Epos Elan 15 speakers (including ST15 stands) for sale in excellent condition. If you're not familiar with Epos, they are a British designed speaker and sound very similar to Harbeth, but at a fraction of the price. Fit and finish are excellent and do some things better than the Harbeth Compact 7 IMO. I've owned the Compact 7's, and they are wonderful speakers, but can be a bit laid back and warm sounding. The Elan 15 has no listening fatigue, has that magical midrange, but is not as laid back and more "live" sounding. They are an excellent match with Creek electronics, but work well with anything over 20wpc.) These are a steal at my asking price.
