MEET EPOS AND FINKTEAM DESIGNER KARL-HEINZ FINK AT UK HIFI SHOW LIVE AT ASCOT

Epos and FinkTeam designer Karl-Heinz Fink will be at The UK Hi-Fi Show Live this weekend.

The Epos ES14N loudspeakers were one of the most anticipated launches at High End Munich earlier this year and now the Epos brand is coming home with their UK debut at the show this weekend.

EPOS ES14N

UK distributor Kog Audio will be demonstrating the new Epos ES14N for the first time in the UK.

The Epos ES14N were very well received at High End Munich 2022

FinkTeam owner, Karl-Heinz Fink, purchased the Epos brand name from Mike Creek in 2020 as he wanted to apply modern thinking to a brand steeped in its past founder, Robin Marshall’s, design philosophy. Not that there was anything wrong with Robin’s thinking, it differed in its day from the thinking of other UK speaker engineers. Karl-Heinz told us “Honestly speaking, I was not really excited to follow some rules that were used in the 1980s. That was when I started my journey in HiFi and hey, I think I learned something in the last 35 years that I wanted to use! So I was close to letting it go when I found an interview with Robin Marshall, made many years after he sold the brand and moved on. Obviously, the interviewer wanted to get confirmation from Robin that all he did was magic. But Robin‘s answer was completely unexpected. Not only did he walk away from loudspeaker development, but he also said clearly that he did the speakers based on the ideas and know-how he had at that time – not more and not less. That sounded like my way…..trying to stretch boundaries and not copying the past. So I made the deal with Mike Creek and this was the beginning of the new Epos story. I was joined on this path by my old friend David Jefferys who had been Sales Director for Epos and Mordaunt-Short when they were both part of TGI plc in the 1990s.”
