• Epifani Ultra Light Series

Since 1992 the Epifani design team has been working very closely with many of the world’s leading bassists, developing what are regarded as some of today’s fi nest and most rewarding bass amplifi cation systems. We are dedicated to research and development, constantly evolving innovating, and hopefully, inspiring in the process.

All Epifani products are designed to meet the needs of the working & traveling musician. Portability, tone, weight, and size do matter. We focus on real-world needs, and strive to deliver practical products that embody superior form and peerless function. When we design we evaluate every aspect of the project: size, wood type, construction techniques, cabinet tuning, speaker quality, electronic components, weight, versatility etc., but the most important element is the musicality of the fi nished product. The products need to “sing”, and the defi ning moment for us is when our customers experience music without thinking or worrying about their gear - they just play.

In 2001 we introduced our Ultra Light Series speaker cabinets. Combining superior performance and less weight than a traditional bass instrument cabinet, Epifani Ultra Light cabinets have become the standard of excellence in bass cabinet design since their inception just a few short years ago. Made from uncommonly strong, yet lightweight Italian Poplar, the UL Cabinets employ an internal bracing design that would make a traditional cabinet too heavy for one person to handle. This material allows for a sturdier cabinet construction, more precise cabinet tuning, and further reduces sound-damaging

esonance.

Loaded with high performance neodymium drivers built to demanding specifi cations specifi cally for Epifani, the cabinets are tuned to reveal the true nature and nuance of your instrument’s character. Even the crossovers are made from the highest quality components - the best polypropylene capacitors, 18 gauge inductors and sealed 1/4” phono/Neutrix Speakon™ connectors. The cabinets are fi nished in heavy-duty fabric and protected by high-impact plastic corners for years of sustained use and abuse.

The UL Series Heads from Epifani represent an important step in the evolution of professional bass amplifi cation. Utilizing a proprietary class “D” amplifi er, the UL Series Heads were designed for the power, precision and clarity today’s professional bassists demand. The unique, 2-channel pre-amp design allows the user to toggle between two separate foot switchable channels, employ dual instrument inputs and access a foot switchable mid-cut feature for killer slap tone on demand! Other features include a three-band equalizer with sweepable midrange, pre-amp mute and treble shift.
