EPI 200

Little is documented about the EPI 200 beyond a series of advertisements that ran in the late 1970s. What survives suggests this model was EPI's attempt to bridge the "East Coast Sound" (accurate, wide dispersion) with the "West Coast Sound". That is a marketing pitch, not a documented engineering brief, but the company repeated it across several publications.

Those ads ran in HiFI-Stereo (August 1977, p.89) and High Fidelity (October 1977, p.96). They claimed the Model 200 delivered "Linear Sound" from 34 Hz to 20,000 Hz, and that a 30-watt receiver could drive it adequately. Dispersion was described as superb. Nobody can confirm from the available record whether these were measured specs or ad copy. No independent review of the 200 appears in the period literature archived here.

No service manual, schematic, or owner's documentation has surfaced in the Archive's research. The 200 likely shared driver technology with other EPI models of the era (the company was known for its 1-inch phenolic-ring tweeter and acoustic suspension designs), but that is inference, not fact. If you own a pair, the Archive would welcome scans or photos.
