| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today Congrats @travisg! I’m sure that finish looks awesome! I’m pretty limited in my listening time this week due to work too. Sounds like we’ll have a couple people here firing up the DW6 this weekend. What gear will you be running them with... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today @fendersrule I’m probably realistically around 100hrs at this point so it’s why I’d def qualify my review as early. Most of my playback falls with peaks in low 80s so not high intensity. looking forward to see and hearing what you think. And... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today I have found these to be less fussy about placement than the bottom loading design of the DW/Omen. I have my left speaker a similar distance from both back and side wall and it sounds great. I don’t have anything impeding it against wall until s... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today Hell yeah! Congrats! These are fun speakers than wanna be turned up and party. That integrated should make some pretty music. These drivers are well known to do well with all kinds of equipment. Very interested to hear what you think of the pai... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today I think better but a little less forgiving. I’m learning that speakers all have trade offs. I think these are making some mad smart ones for the price. I’m just being totally honest and this is an early review but my brain is a little confused... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today I think in short @fendersrule you’re going to be happy. These have a very live sound. I think they need to be carefully paired with equipment driving them…you mentioned your friend driving them with tubes. Paired with appropriately laid back gear... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today @fendersrule I appreciate the feedback and input. I am definitely a regular person not a pro. I’ve been hanging around these forums just reading since about 2016. I finally feel like I have enough experience to not sound like a compete idiot.... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today Well hello from the US! It’s a bit of a small world as my good friend who owns the studio my Zu Omen MKII live at was in the latest season of Alt for Sverige. Sucks it makes taking the dive for a pair of Zu a pain and expensive. I will have t... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today I actually wanted the Klipsch Forte IV and have “settled” for these Zu DW6. While I’ve heard the Forte IV I haven’t done an extended trial as I’m not ready for that jump financially yet. But if you didn’t like those speakers you may not enjoy Zu.... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today The drivers made for Zu based on PA speakers from Eminence, but they are custom and heavily modified. They certainly don’t sound like the few affordable PA systems I’ve known intimately. | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today While you can certainly tell between poorly recorded and well recorded music, this speaker doesn’t punish bad recording the way some hifi speakers I’ve listened to do. Poorly recorded music can still be very enjoyable through these speakers. I... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today I’m also very interested to hear what people think of the new design. Sounds like a decent sized batch of the DW6 are going out Friday of this week. | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today So I’ve spent the better part of the day with these and here are my initial impressions. Again my system Sonos Port to Schiit Bifrost Multibit to Arcam SA20. Crutchfield speaker cables and OSD interconnects. I have the satin black with the Su... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today Will do. I’m planning on doing a lot of listening this weekend. The Superfly comes with 200hrs of break in and I’m using them with other well worn in equipment. I wish I had my Omen MKII in the same space to AB but unfortunately they’re at a budd... | |
| Zu Dirty Weekend 6 went on sale today Zu DW6 Superfly in the house. Very brief initial impressions…Still have that awesome Zu house sound but they’re definitely more detailed and nuanced than my Omen MKII. They already sound better than the KLH model 5s that are going back (my mo... |
