Just as a question... I’m sure you tried different angles, tilts and room positions for the zu to see if you could eliminate the harshness???


OK,  you have mentioned bass several times so it would seem that the zu must seem bass shy?  My experience has been that sometimes, when highs and lows are not proportionate, things can seem overly bright on some recordings. 


The BP 9060s with their built in subs probably give you the best chance to get the bass where you want it.... which may well reduce some of the perceived harshness. 


I’m  pretty sure the gallos sound good... and better with added subs... but how do you ever get them fixed if there is a problem??
