ZU OMEN speakers 12ohms??

I don't care what amp you use the Omen's are excellent speakers.They arrived the end of November I broke them in with a tubes and ran them all day everyday for 5 weeks then switched over to a Musical Fidelity A-5 proving that there's nothing like headroom. Yes these speakers play loud or soft. I might consider and upgrade to the Super Fly or Omen Def if someone can prove to me that it's justified.

Really clever marketing on Zu's part to offer them at $999.00 with a no questions asked return policy. Although Music Direct here in Chicago sells them for $999.00 regular price! So anyone considering a purchase should buy from MD not Zu and save $500.00 bucks and the return policy is still in place.

Have you tried a pair of the Zu's yet? You can't bet the deal Zu offers for trying their speakers, remember you can buy the Omens cheaper from Music Direct in Chicago than from Zu and with the same return policy in place. The answer to your question...which speakers have I compared them to well I'm "Old School" I like the Klipsch Heresy's and La Scala's. Lately I've been using a Class A solid state amp, but I've also got a VTL ST85 that really sounds nice with the Zu's. As for a pre I usually use a Placette passive. By the way the room treatment looks pretty cool what exactly is that product, and was it easy to find?

Good luck with your new speakers I'm sure they will be very pleasing.I'm not familiar with the Lore's I'll have to give them a listen soon. The more gear I listen to less seems like more, taking the crossovers out of the design just seems to make more sense, and the simpler Class A circuits that seem to becoming more popular really sound amazing i.e. Nelson Pass's First Watt stuff is just to good. Thanks for the info on the room treatment I will give it a try.
