EPI 70

Not much is documented about the EPI 70 as a standalone home speaker. What survives comes mostly from period advertising for a car speaker, the LS70, which says outright that it was modeled after the EPI 70. Those ads, found in HI-Fi-Stereo-Buyers (September 1978, p.27), list these specifications for the EPI 70:

• Frequency response: 60–20 kHz
• Crossover: 1800 Hz
• Dispersion: Nearly hemispherical in the musical range
• Power handling: over 60 watts per channel (per contemporary claims)

That is all the known data. No production years, original price, dimensions or cabinet details have survived in the public record. The EPI 70 appears to have been a capable , but the rest of its story is missing.
