Epitome of Music and Art
Powered by 20 drivers and a 5-way crossover, the Epitome blends the airy sparkle of electrostatics with the precision of balanced armatures for a natural, realistic soundscape. Its metallic finish shifts like a starry night sky.
20-Driver Configuration
Epitome pairs 8 electrostatic and 12 balanced armature drivers per side, blending EST airiness with BA precision across the entire frequency range. Its 20-driver architecture is supported by premium through-hole components and a complex 5-way crossover, delivering smooth transitions, unified tonality, and a natural, detailed soundstage, whether you’re exploring layered orchestral pieces or intimate vocals.
4 Dual EST Drivers | 10Hz-20kHz
Sonion EST units add airiness, spatial openness, and ultra-high extension.
1 Dual High-Frequency Knowles BA Driver | 6kHz-12kHz
Smoothly bridges the high and ultra-high ranges for natural transitions.
2 Dual Sonion Mid-High BA Drivers | 3kHz-6kHz
Enhance clarity, instrument separation, and upper-mid presence.
2 Dual Sonion Mid BA Drivers | 400Hz-3kHz
Deliver rich, expressive vocal performance and natural mids.
1 Dual Sonion Low-Frequency BA Driver | 20Hz-400Hz
Provides tight, dynamic bass with clean control.

Shimmering With a Flowing Brilliance
Epitome features 3D-printed shells with a three-dimensional appearance on the top panel. Under different lighting angles, the shell exhibits a gradient flickering effect, appearing like meteors streaking across the sky.
Copper Cable with Interchangeable Plug System
Epitome utilizes 0.78 2-pin earpiece plugs, compatible with all cables of the same interface. It comes with a 5N mono crystal Copper litz structure cable and features a replaceable plug system. Standard connectors include 4.4mm, 3.5mm and USB-C, which provide ideal sound whether single-ended, balanced or directly plugged into a smartphone.

New Alloy Cable
Before the launch of Epitome, a new alloy was created that consists of a special silver plated wire, which offers excellent sound performance. Since it has not undergone full durability testing, iBasso decided to offer it as a complimentary gift along with the standard cable. (This is not a warranty part.)
