ANY EXPERIANCE WITH PASS LABS AND MONTANA EPS2?

Hi Bill. I've got an old house with crazy warped floors, so the EPS2's spiking system is a must, or they'd be the leaning towers of speaker. I have Herbie's sliders under them, so tweaking placement is easy. That's all the tweaking I've tried. Bass fuller closer to boundaries, but I agree that the deeps are not their special strength.(Suspended floor may be costing me some lows?) I also agree that the smoothness makes a tradeoff; as I say, I don't find them to be detail monsters, though I hear a lot of detail. But I do find them incredibly listenable. Matters of taste here of course: I carefully auditioned the GMA Eos, relative to the speakers Shakey traded his EPS2s for, and found the highs fatiguing (dealer set up may have been an issue). In short I find the EPS2s design compromises tilted more to "Mmmmmm" than "wow," but if your ears run that way, they could really be the speaker for you.

I had the following system for a few years:

-Hovland HP-100
-Pass X350.5
-EPS2

It was a great system with the Pass delivering enough current for extended, tight bass. Dont miss out, killer combo.

I have listened to JDoris's system several times and the Pass and the EPS2s are a great combo. Very smooth with female vocals and the speakers don't have to be pushed with a large amp to sound great.
