Zu Druid IV - the real deal?

i just got done setting up my brand new pair of Zu Druid IVs. they just arrived this afternoon. i am speechless. my girlfriend is too, and quite frankly she could not give a damn about what kind of speakers i have. i bought these speakers without having heard them before. i was just curious.

right out of the box they are remarkable, and i can only expect that they are going to get better. music simply floats out of them effortlessly. wow. i can't even describe it.

now get this; i have them hooked up to a $799 Denon 2803 a/v receiver. $25 Audio Quest interconnects and cheap speaker cable. this is my second system, which i use mainly for watching TV. in the other room i have what would be considered an "audiophile" grade system. i can only imagine what these Druids are going to sound like if i give them a spin in there.

oh yeah; i have a REL storm sub woofer filling in the low end.

Funny these Zu's get about 80% "greatets thiong since AC power" and other 20% hate them.Had one guy say he went to dealership after not getting them to sound OK and he and his buddy just couldn't get them to soundecentt at all.Don't think I have seen this passion exceptt in all positive reviews of Plinius where it's not a product it's a cult movement.Butt some just don't cotton which makes me want to here them all the more.6moons.com editor took $10K pair to replace his $22K Avategarde horns which is quite something.When i get scratch might take dive just wonder when they will fill the $2,800 to $10K gap in their line.If anybody can explain in basics terms why all the hub bub I'd like to know.
Enjoy those who (and hate those who do-some aspects of scociety arestill free).
