Full-Range Reference Performance for Real-World Spaces | Available at Trimira Audio
The Gryphon EOS 2 Floorstanding Loudspeaker System is designed to bring Gryphon's high-performance loudspeaker engineering into rooms where a large multi-tower system is impractical.
Designed by Chief Loudspeaker Designer Benno Baun Meldgaard, the EOS 2 combines a 34 mm Beryllium dome tweeter with a 7.5-inch Thin-Ply Carbon Diaphragm (TPCD™) mid-woofer in a compact two-way floorstanding architecture.
Its combination of a sculpted cabinet, Progressive Curved Slope (PCS) crossover, and convertible front/rear porting provides considerable flexibility when positioning the speaker close to room boundaries.
At Trimira Audio, we recommend the EOS 2 for listeners seeking a high-performance full-range floorstander that can deliver substantial bass extension and wide bandwidth without requiring a large listening room.
Key Features & Technological Innovations
Faceted Stealth Enclosure
The EOS 2 uses a sculpted, faceted cabinet design intended to help scatter unwanted acoustic energy and reduce the influence of parallel surfaces.
The relatively compact enclosure is designed to integrate naturally into domestic listening environments.
34 mm Beryllium Dome Tweeter
A large 34 mm Beryllium dome tweeter handles high-frequency reproduction.
Beryllium combines low mass with high stiffness, making it well suited to applications requiring extended bandwidth, rapid transient response, and controlled high-frequency dispersion.
The tweeter is mounted within a specially designed rear chamber intended to control unwanted resonance.
7.5-Inch TPCD™ Mid-Woofer
The EOS 2 uses a 7.5-inch Thin-Ply Carbon Diaphragm (TPCD™) driver for midrange and bass reproduction.
The carbon-fibre diaphragm is designed to provide high stiffness and controlled mechanical behaviour, while an impulse-optimiser ring supports the driver's transient performance.
Convertible Front/Rear Porting
One of the EOS 2's most useful installation features is its configurable porting.
Interchangeable port plugs allow the speaker to operate with:
- Front-firing port
- Rear-firing port
This provides greater flexibility when positioning the loudspeaker close to rear walls.
Progressive Curved Slope Crossover
The PCS crossover uses progressively changing filter slopes designed to provide smooth driver integration within the operating band while increasing attenuation outside the intended passbands.
The crossover is hand assembled as part of Gryphon's emphasis on component matching and signal-path quality.
Near-Wall Placement Flexibility
The EOS 2 is specifically designed to accommodate relatively close placement to rear boundaries.
The convertible port configuration allows the bass alignment to be adapted according to the installation environment.

Real-World Room Integration
The EOS 2 is particularly suited to rooms where speaker positioning is constrained.
Its front/rear port configuration allows the installation to be adapted according to the available rear-wall clearance.
Trimira Audio can assist with:
- Rear-wall spacing
- Front versus rear port configuration
- Toe-in
- Listening distance
- Stereo imaging
- Bass integration
- Room-boundary optimisation
For rooms where speakers must sit relatively close to the rear wall, the convertible porting can provide useful additional flexibility.
Amplifier Matching
With 89 dB sensitivity and a 6-ohm nominal impedance, the EOS 2 is compatible with a broad range of quality amplification.
Its minimum specified impedance of 3.8 ohms should nevertheless be considered when selecting an amplifier, particularly for high listening levels or larger rooms.
Suitable system matching can include:
- Integrated amplifiers
- Dedicated stereo power amplifiers
- High-current Class AB amplification
- Class A amplification
- Gryphon electronics
Trimira Audio can assess amplifier power, current capability, room size, and listening preferences when recommending an appropriate pairing.
Reference Two-Channel System
A typical EOS 2 system can be configured as:
Digital / Analogue Source → Preamplifier → Power Amplifier → Gryphon EOS 2
The speaker's 26 Hz lower-frequency extension allows it to operate as a full-range stereo loudspeaker in many rooms, while a dedicated subwoofer can be incorporated where additional low-frequency output is required.
Installation Considerations
At approximately 30.6 kg per loudspeaker, the EOS 2 is considerably easier to accommodate than Gryphon's larger reference designs.
Its approximately 1.02-metre height also provides a more conventional listening-room footprint.
Trimira Audio can assist with:
- Speaker positioning
- Port configuration
- Toe-in
- Listening-height alignment
- Amplifier matching
- Room acoustics
- Subwoofer integration
