Request to hear Zu speakers
Hello.
For the past year or so, I have stayed out of the discussions regarding Zu speakers.
In 2004, I attended their demo in Easton, PA. The Zu guys were some of the nicest, most fun and real people I have ever encountered in audio. I had my issues with the sonics, which I greatly attributed to room acoustics. And, they were most amenable to my suggestions, such as firing the speakers out of a corner of the large room. Still, it was a new speaker, so I allowed a lot of leeway. I put my faith into Zu being a young, energetic, and dynamic company who would find their way.
In 2005, I heard the speakers again. This time at Audiogon dealer Quest For Sound. Again, I feel the need to compliment the folks at Zu for being such good people. But, again, I had some major issues with the sound of the speakers. It could have been the room, it could have been break - in, it could have been the weather...
I would like to request someone who is an owner, and, obviously a believer, of these speakers, be they Druid or Definition, to allow me a thorough listen. Not that my opinion means any more than any other, but I normally take a definite stand on equipment. I don't want to say much more until I have given the speaker a totally fair shake, given the regard I hold the ownership of the company in.
Is there anyone who lives in within a two hour radius of Philadelphia who is willing to take me up on my request?
Thank you,
Joe
