| Zu Druid 6 >> I didn't write a treatise on a particular speaker claiming it to be the second coming discounting other designs in the process. I didnt start a discussion on the XTAC. See if you see some similarities between your thread and the recent Te... | |
| Zu Druid 6 >> Well these are not typical array speakers and the special amplification is critical. By using drivers and different size you open up a whole series of problems which are avoided by using multiple identical drivers. What I find so interest... | |
| Zu Druid 6 I've had no opportunity to hear the Cube Nenuphar. I'm aware of it. By all accounts, compared to comparable Zu it lacks bass foundation, and it is only93db/w/m efficient, 8db less than Zu. So for a given amp the burst factor will be reduced. On th... | |
| Zu Druid 6 roberthovland@earthlink.net is definitely Bob's email address. Try it again and not it's not a .com, but a .net. Ancient email provider here.If you have further trouble, I'll have Bob email you. | |
| Zu Druid 6 Marc,Bob builds to order and he doesn't have a web site to order from. Email Bob at roberthovland@earthlink.net.Phil | |
| Zu Druid 6 Marc,I agree your vast suspended, older, flexy floor presents a special challenge for bass energy, especially for a down-firing sub arrangement. I don't think sub-bass performance is assured to be better with Class A/B than well-implemented Class ... | |
| Zu Druid 6 A few further random notes:1/ Bob Hovland offers an isolation transformer that improves the sound of amps I've tried with it. The design principle is that if an amp is fed power from a balanced power isolation transformer that is designed to opera... | |
| Zu Druid 6 >>So you read the actual description of these speakers and the white paper?<<Yes, I read the white paper. I agree with most of the diagnostic observations about what's wrong with speaker types to-date. Further, the author's time-domain... | |
| Zu Druid 6 >>So if Druids VI truly break the 35 Hz barrier in room, they may be a better choice for me than Definitions VI, Experiences I or Dominances II.<<Marc,I don't think a Definitions owner will want to give them up for Druid 6. Especially ... | |
| Zu Druid 6 >>Check out the XTAC by Audiomachina and you will see most if not all of your concerns addressed properly and without compromise.<<[Laughing hysterically...] No, that's exactly wrong what I don't want.Phil | |
| Zu Druid 6 >>I have checked and "fatkit83-8" is NOT a seller on EBay. And "Tube Fantasy" produces nothing of audio worth on EBay.<<Funny, he's right there on my eBay app. He doesn't always list his brand name.Phil | |
| Zu Druid 6 Hi Marc,Well, at least you have it now! SET well done is fine down to ~34Hz. It works in Definition deeper because the driver control is handled by the solid state amp. Druid 6 challenges the zero NFB SET bottom end discipline of SET directly cont... | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Just posted a new thread on Druid 6 here. So now you'll know. -Phil | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Getting the Druid 6 FRD into the Def form factor will require a new cabinet interior design, and even the mounting holes for the drivers have to be somewhat different spacing than in Def4. For doing all that it only makes sense to also apply the m... | |
