Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?


Comparisons with the 1.5s and the others that came before? Getting the itch; again......

I've had some extensive conversations with Sean regarding caps for the Druid mk5 upgrade. Clarity Cap MR is his favourite value for money cap with the Radian, very close to Duelund in the mk5 configuration. I had Mundorf SIO caps in my network already........... He said change them.
I upgraded my 2 Mini Method amps to the new def 4 hypex versions, they are 400w as Phil says and sound far better than the old 120w ones. Bass is deeper and faster with way more headroom BUT the PEQ functions are far better allowing superior integration with the mains.
Zu recommend the ClarityMR over the Audyn with the DruidV but the Duelund wins.

Would upgrading the cap to Duelund in the Def 4 without upgrading the 2 resistors be of benefit as they are between the Cap and Radian? If it was me then Duelund resistors would be used throughout.
The network is a cap and 2 resistors with Event cabling.

I agree that Audyn and Clarity MR are 95% of Duelund but at 10% of the cost....... I quizzed Sean over them and he said to stick with Clarity unless going to Duelund....... In the DruidV

My point is however....... $500 cap linked to a $10 resistor before the tweeter...... The upgraded networks do not have Duelund resistors.

I'm not saying it doesn't sound good but it could sound better using $50 worth of resistors.
