| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup I was thinking the same thing just moments ago, Charles. Interested in Keithr's listening impressions of the Valvet. | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup While I haven't heard the PX-25, I have used the following amps with the Zu Definitions Mk1.9: Melody M300B, Atma-Sphere M60's, Clayton M200's, Sophia 845 mono's with 205 driver tube, and Cary 805AE. The Melody and Cary sounded dull and lacking in... | |
| Coincident Dragon MK I vs MK II Earnie,I have both the Zu Definition Mk4 and the Druid Mk4-8 ( last model before Druid Mk5 came out late last year). I can speak to the differences between the two as well as the effects of amps. I've had the Coincident Frankenstein Mk2 powering t... | |
| Duelund CAST silver a $50,000 Upgrade? "Sounds like they just pulled the number out of their rear to make it go away.”Germanboxers, that is a very reasonable proposition that’s contradicted by this:http://app.audiogon.com/listings/full-range-dc10audio-instrument-8ps-loudspeaker-for-re... | |
| Duelund CAST silver a $50,000 Upgrade? then why is silver 12 times more $$$ It's not. I suspect your speaker manufacture decided they didn't want to bother with yet one more option that would need to be purchased and tested before responsibly selling. Sounds like they just pulled the ... | |
| Romulus Pandora-- Quintessence Audio in Morton Grove, IL and Tone Studio in Indianapolis, IN.I just received a Pandora with VC for auditioning earlier this week. There's much to like right out of the box, though I suspect significant burn in is required. | |
| Has anyone heard Aesthetix Romulus/Pandora? Bwos, any update? I'm very surprised there have been so few who have tried this DAC, give Jim's pedigree and what appears to be a very well designed product. I should receive mine with volume control in 2 weeks. I'll have 30 days to determine if i... | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Gopher wrote - I owned an Atma-sphere S30 which I used to drive Soul Superflys briefly and it was very transparent with good bass and dynamics, but I found it tonally bleached and too analytical for my tastes. I also welcome and appreciate more bo... | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Charles1dad wrote - Have either of you heard the Melody SET-PSET 845 amps(I believe the Black series)? The driver tube is the 2a3 and an interstae transformer circuit.On paper it looks like a good design.I'm not Phil, nor am I Gopher and I haven't... | |
| Anyone road test the new ARC Ref CD-9?? Does it include analog volume control? Will it be equivalent to the volume control of teh Ref series preamps?Thanks, | |
| CD player with Tube Output or Music Server Why not both? Aesthetix Romulus is the Pandora (DAC with USB and S/PDIF) with a CD transport built in. Haven't heard it yet, but I intend to very soon. | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? Markpao - thanks. It does confirm what I expected...not alot of room for the 3rd spike. Oh wait...there's an aluminum "grating" on the bottom. Is that correct? That would alleviate a fair amount of concern.Thanks. | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? Thanks David...your explanation was helpful. I can't seem to find any images of the bottom of the Def 4's, but what I can see of the sub/plinth from the side it looks like there would be plenty of space in the corners for the 2 spike end, but that... | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? Oops..."neorotic" was a spell error and not a reference to new eroticism. ;-). Please replace with "neurotic" | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? Hi Dave - yeah I was directing the question to you...we've spoke before re. Def4's and other system building/tweaking subjects about 9 months ago.My admittedly neorotic concern is that when I bear-hug the Def's and set them on the spikes my aim is... |
