in Vintage Speakers
I did say I wasn't going to but anymore speakers. Well these came home for free. The guy who sold me my Rectilinear Low Boy IIIs remembered that I had an interest in what he thought was a make of Ohm Brand speakers. They are not my friends over on AK say they are EPI M-201s in kinda the same style as the Bose 601s w/ the top and front firing woofers. Very bass heavy w/ an adjust for the tweeter. My room needs adjusting now.qs4gqvffiwjd.jpg

    They are superb speakers.
    Their creator, Win Burhoe, still makes - last I knew, at any rate - an only slightly modernized version.

    OK not identical but still an implementation of the "Burhoe module" -- which was a good thing :)

    So do they sound better with sneakers or sandals?

    By the ghosting it looks like they could also come w/ another woofer
    and some kind of pot...

    Nice pickup!

    I forgot to put out there that the 2 top logos were missing. Human Speakers both wanted $14.00 for a set and $14.00 for shipping something that weighs maybe an 1/8th of an oz. I forgot to ask Doc Hardy the man w/ many East Coast speaker chachkis namely Logos but I already got a good deal on E-Bay much less than Human Speakers wanted or shipped which is even heavier than Parts/Express shipping charges.

    FYI/FWI: I do have a pair of EPI logos -- I think you might've given them to me(?!) :)
