Using the Logitech Duet Remote with the Touch
IIRC, the Duet controller is compatible with all Squeezebox products. I know it worked fine with my Touch. 
The Well Tempered Record Player and Denon DL103
I'm listening to my Well Tempered Reference right now with a Zu 103 cartridge and it sounds great. I agree with the others regarding the need for more mass or more compliance.That said, if you re-body your 103 (I remember seeing some aluminum Zu-l... 
Zu Soul Superfly
Zanon, my friend. It seems you're looking for a conflict here ;)I suggest you give Zu a buzz or drop their new CEO a line. They have a long term plan which makes the Omen and Soul's existence alongside the Omen make perfect sense, but its not my p... 
best powercord for atma-sphere amps MA 1
Try a Wywires "Juice" power cord. They are affordable in the relative scheme of things, have yielded phenominal improvments on the componts I've used it with.Atmasphere and VMPS are also going to be using their wiring exclusively at THE SHOW/CES, ... 
Dynavector XV-1s vs. Soundsmith The Voice?
Darkmoebius, In my system the Zu 103 just works a little better synergy wise. It's got a meatier, bolder sound that gives music a little more boogie factor--I'm using a table that is very laid back so its a welcome presentation.With the 103D on my... 
dac for squeezebox touch
No, I have not. My Touch has fed digital to my Minimax from day one. I've never experimented with its analog outs. Also, for some reason coax from my Touch to Minimax sounded inferior to toshlink until I had digital mods done on my Touch. I think ... 
Zu Soul Superfly
No they aren't. Omen: 1500msrp $1000 preorderSoul: 1800msrp $1500 preorder new customer $1400 prior 
Zu Soul Superfly
Zanon,There really isn't anything confusing about it... I think you should re-read a little more carefully.$1800 is msrp. Pre-orders are discounted to $1500 for new Zu customers and to $1400 for existing Zu customers. 
Zu Soul Superfly
Bwp,The choice would be easier if Zu hadn't inverted the discounts. They gave $500 off the cheaper speaker and $300 off the more expensive one. doh! 
Zu Soul Superfly
Anyone notice the Soul is out? And with intro pricing too... http://www.zuaudio.com/loudspeakers/soul.html 
dac for squeezebox touch
I'm rocking the Touch with an EE Minimax DAC and am quite content with the pairing. My suggestion would be be dropping the $750 on the DAC and the remaining budget on digital modifications from Bolder Cable for the Touch. The DAC and mods (along w... 
Dynavector XV-1s vs. Soundsmith The Voice?
Tom,Thanks, but this thread actually came back from the dead. I've got a Zu 103 I'm using on the WTR these days and a Denon 103D sitting as a standby. Aside from liking the sound of both of them, I just don't feel that comfortable with multi-kilob... 
Ray Samuels F-117 Nighthawk MC/MM Phono
Can't say how it mates with the low output Dynas, but it did a fine job with a 20xH I heard in my system and a friends.Right now its making sweet music with a Zu 103 in my listening room. Its one of those items that if you're buying new you can't ... 
Dynavector XV-1s vs. Soundsmith The Voice?
Honestly, the specs meant little to me as I suck at the tech part of the hobby. I wanted a Voice based on my reading of it, linked the audiogon ad to a buddy who told me it would be fine for my arm (based on the specs in ad). Shame for the crack/c... 
Zu Soul Superfly
Glory,The AS s30 is the amplifier I am most curious about and would LOVE to try with my Superflys. From what I've read it sounds like a match made in heaven, but between heat output, exposed tubes (infant and cats) and the fact that it seems to go...
