Anybody hear the Epiphany Audio 12-12's?

I heard them or the 6s but I think it was the 12 @ the show in NY years ago. I was very very impressed & thought them to be one of the worlds great speakers. Incredibel detail, sound staging & imaging. The only limitatoin was that the subwoofer was not integrated at all. From what I understand the subwoofer was an experimental version. It should be much better now. There is another speaker supposed to be similar but much less expensive called. It is now discontinued but probably can be sourced. The name is the GR Research Alpha LS. Hope this helps.

711smilin, heard them at the first Rocky Mountain Audio Fest when they were showing with Edge Electronics. Carefully listened, I'm a fan of Edge, used to own an NL-10 amp, and thought that the 12-12's were ok at best nothing special. They kinda went into a catagory I call, "just don't get it", which means that after all the hype in the Absolute Sound review, the speakers were not horrible or anything, but just very average at best. I did notice that you better sit in the very small "sweet spot" otherwise you lose the image and high end extension. In my opinion, I would rather own a pair of Soundlabs or a pair of MG-20.1's if your looking for the magic that planar speakers can provide. Finally, have you noticed that after all the fanfare that the Absolute Sound review of the Epiphany caused, nobody else reviewed them and there has been no discussions between audiophiles regarding their performance. Even the Absolute Sound does not have them on their recommanded list of speakers, which is interesting since they raved about them to begin with.

Dgad,

thanks for the opinion....I know you heard the 6-6 plus, but the 12-12 should be great with an additional sub.

Teajay, I dunno, but I hope you are wrong. BTW they were on the list for most wanted in 04
