Missed you by two hours. Joe, it will happen for you. There's got to be someone in the Big Apple with these babies or close to Philly....
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
