| Which Zu for you I admire your restraint. I'm you I save for the Druids. Personally own the Def 1V and Omen 1B. | |
| Equipment Rack Having read this entire thread as well as a somewhat similar thread on What's Best Forum I suspect most of us music lovers just want to get some good practical results from our efforts at racking our equipment. Regardless of the method used. and I... | |
| BAT Rex II VS Conrad Johnson ARTSA Have read, not heard, some really good things about Raven Audio Silhouette amps. There is a used pair currently on Agon about to expire. I have looked at a lesser power amp from them for high efficiency speakers. Also, almost bought a pair of Coin... | |
| Preamp recommendation please.. I have purchased 5R4GYS rectifiers for my Mc60s. Two have bitten the dust and a replacement purchased from Upscale arrived shattered in the packing. Three attempts to contact them on their website, once by phone, no answer. | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Have a question? Mark, I am currently running Macintosh MC60s with a dedicated power cord. I have a BPT 3.5 Sig plus on my front end but my amps are across the room. I will need a tech to replace the dedicated cords, no? | |
| First "audiophile" system, now what? Any easy fixes here? Get some Zu Soul Supreme speakers and it will astound you with dynamics and great bass. | |
| looking for ideas on a tube pre amp You Have Atma, Herron and DeHavilland. It's great to have such fine choices in this price range. Either way you are in for a treat.Personally have a Zesto Leto, balanced and transformer coupled with very low output impedance which helps with the l... | |
| Should I buy a Class A Amp. I would either go with the latest Class D or pick up the pair of Mcintosh MC 60s on eBay right now. I have both and although they are a little different in their own way, both are probably more dependable and sound better than a dated Krell/transi... | |

| Bass amp settings for Zu Def 4 rev b Thanks Phil, this will help. Getting the bass just right can really make a difference with the overall presentation. | |
| I have an uber awesome amp, why buy a speaker with a built in woofer sub-woofer amp While onboard powered subs in a speaker can cause problems in optimal speaker location, their voicing, being that the manufacturer has control of that aspect, trumps the separate sub or subs in some senses. One such instance is the ability to inte... | |
| Is Louder always Better? Charles, we have the same speakers, and while I would love to hear your amps alas I can't spring for them right now. Truth is I would love to be satisfied at lower volumes and after coming across a BPT 3.5 Sig Plus some of that has been realized. ... | |
| Desperately needed quality amp stands!! Star Sound. I have Sistrum stands under my amps. Like 'em. | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Throughout this thread arguments on both sides seem to have merit. I will say Ralph's data is the most convincing given that he has measurements to support his viewpoint. It would be interesting to see some data involving the turntable setup wher... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Lewm, the Terminator tonearm actually pivots vertically on two contact points of an underslung carriage. This is joined to a sliding metal inverted V bearing which slides horizontally on a similar inverted arm,separated by a thin cushion of air. A... |
