2023 started with a bang with the first hifi event organised by YY Audio and Reference Audio Singapore over the weekend of 14th and 15th January. This Gryphon EOS 2 Speakers launch event was held in The Concorde Hotel, Kuala Lumpur where 3 different set ups was showcased. The main set up featured the EOS 2 speakers in which kept me entertained for 1 hour solid. The EOS 2 was matched with top end Gryphon equipment such the Ethos CD Player, Antileon EVO Stereo power amp, Essence pre amp.
We also had the pleasure to listen to Rune Skov, Gryphon Global Sales Director briefing of what the EOS 2 is all about Another marvelous piece of engineering translated into a mesmerizing performance of musicality. Have a listen to the Chit Chat with Rune and Han to know more about the speakers and also the future plan for Gryphon in Malaysia.

How would I describe the EOS 2 performance? I purposely sat at the very rear of the room to see how these relatively small-ish floorstanders performs in this large room. Rated at 89 dB sensitivity, the EOS had no issue to fill up the room while maintaining its musicality, fluidity without any signs of strain nor stress. One can enjoy the music regardless where you are seated in the listening room.
The overall performance leans towards good clarity and details. really sweet and melodious highs with no signs of high pitched signals. These are complimented by subtle but impactful bass response.
Priced at Euro 22,000 a pair, it is one of well engineered speakers. Each aspect of the speaker designs serves a purpose to the overall big and lively sound delivered during the session.
