No more Zu Dirty Weekends replacement suggestions

Hi -

There is a pair of the Zu Omen floor standers in the ads.  One up the line from the DWs.

The dirty weekend pops up frequently for sale on the preowned sites...they are almost always in good shape and they almost always sell quickly.  Here is a link...but you will need to check at least every day and be prepared to act quickly.

If you don't want to go preowned, there  are many, many options in the $1200 range.  Here are two decent choices and a couple reviews and sound demos you can listen to with headphones to get a rough idea of the sound.

Good luck!

Thank you for the suggestions! I will do both keep an eye out for preowned and research your suggestions. Thank you again!

I would actually go Tekton Loir Reference with the tweeter upgrade.   

Zu is no longer going to offer DW's? Zu sold a lot, you may be able to find a good deal on a used pair. 

Thank you for the suggestions. No Zu put out a memo saying basically they were not profitable for them. 

I own Zu’s and for that style of music might look elsewhere.  Used Monitor Audio or Focal maybe?  

It seems like rap is an odd genre of music to sound good w/ Zu speakers but may be wrong. I would think that a speakers w/ a more authoritative dynamic bass would be a better choice.

I wondered about something in the klipsch line. His interest was peaked when he went speaker shopping with me for magnepans 3.7i’s. When. He found out they had. The LRS he just anout ordered them. I explained to him that I beleive he would eventually be disappointed with the LRS’s with some of his music. Plus space would be a bit of a concern.
