Een set epos es-14 speakers; een cult speaker. 2 Weg speakers met reflex-poort buiten een elco voor de tweeter heeft deze speaker verder géén scheidingsfilter. 8 Ohm; leeftijd 1991; gewicht per speake
€450 is good value for an ES14 if the pair is complete and working properly; older guidance puts clean used examples around £150–£300 depending on condition and stands, which translates to roughly €175–€350, so this ask is a little above that but still reasonable for a respected pair in unknown condition. The original ES14 launched at about $1395/pair, and it has long been regarded as a serious musical speaker rather than a budget curiosity.
What you’re buying is the ES14’s big strength: that vivid, coherent midrange and spacious, emotionally engaging presentation that made it a cult classic. It can sound a bit polite up top and is picky about placement and partnering, so I’d want confirmation of driver health, cone surrounds, and whether any stands are included, but at €450 it still looks like a worthwhile audition for a listener who values midrange realism and scale over modern slickness.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
EPOS Loudspeakers traces its origins to 1983, when British engineer Robin Marshall founded the brand in England, drawing on his BBC experience and prior work at Monitor Audio to pioneer unconventional speaker designs that challenged traditional hi-fi norms. The company changed hands multiple times—acquired by Mordaunt-Short in 1988, then passing to Creek Audio founder Michael Creek in 1999—before German designer Karl-Heinz Fink of FinkTeam purchased it in 2020. Fink, a respected figure in loudspeaker consultancy, revived EPOS with a commitment to updating Marshall's innovative philosophy using modern materials and techniques.
EPOS specializes exclusively in loudspeakers, earning acclaim for compact, high-performance models like the iconic ES-14 from its early days. The 2022 relaunch introduced the ES-14N, a faithful yet redesigned evolution of that classic, emphasizing precise cabinetry and driver integration. Unlike brands venturing into amplifiers, DACs, or headphones, EPOS remains laser-focused on speakers that serve as the system's sonic hub.
Positioned as a niche high-end boutique revival, EPOS commands a cult following among discerning audiophiles who value its heritage of transparency and musicality over mass-market appeal. Under Fink's stewardship, it bridges vintage British ingenuity with German precision, appealing to collectors and serious listeners seeking refined, unconventional performance in a crowded market.
