| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup The ability to customize the finish including "silver" vs black trim is outstanding. My pair are piano black with silver trim. I have seen others in a medium gray (or natural wood) with black trim. | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup A beautiful pair. And I agree with you. Zu Def4s cannot be accused of being lean. | |
| Best redbook cd-only player ? Ancient Audio makes three CDPs in different price ranges. I have the Lektor Prime that I like a lot. | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup I agree about the Positive-Feedback review of the Def 4s. Hard to read and did not say much of substance. While probably less widely read, the Audio Beat review was much better.http://www.theaudiobeat.com/equipment/zu_definition_iv.htmOf course, n... | |
| "Not paypal" Paypal is OK (expensive, but OK) if things go well. However, they are worthless if you have a dispute. There is also a Paypal check service which is much less expensive, but takes several days; I have used it on occasion. | |
| ZU speakers and Classical Music I listen to classical music about half the time, and my Zu Def 4s are great - from solo to chamber to voice to full scale orchestra. | |
| Best Bookshelf speaker 1300.00 budget Try to find a pair of Celestion SL700s. | |
| Speaker recommendations, budget $10-15K Zu Def 4s can be customized in almost any painted or veneered finish, and the metal trim can be "silver" or anodized black. The bass is outstanding and (in my room) flat to 16hz. The footprint is 12x12, but they are 50" tall. Another option is Aud... | |
| 45 Type Push/Pull My only experience is with SETs. However, 300b SETs are much more tube dependent than 45 or 2a3 SETs. . . so much so that it is hard to make general comments about 300b SETs without mentioning the type of tube used. | |
| 45 Type Push/Pull Deja Vu Audio makes 45PP | |
| Modern day female jazz recommendations Holly Cole and for someone more obscure Youn Sun Nah (especially her CD Voyages) | |
| Prefered 300B tubes for Canary Amplifiers Not sure how many watts are dissipated. I will try to find out. When I once asked Jarek (the amp designer) and Keiko (from Amtrans in Japan) the question of 300b longevity, they were non-commital. However, 40,000 hours!?! At this rate, my first pa... | |
| Prefered 300B tubes for Canary Amplifiers Can anyone estimate the longevity of a 300b in a "typical" SET? | |
| Speakers made with unusual cabinet material I have a pair of Celestion SL700s with aerolam cabinets; they are really good, rather light, and have their own stands. It is a shame that Celestion did not continue the line. | |
| Prefered 300B tubes for Canary Amplifiers I have only listened to the white base Takatsuki TA-300b. As far as I know, the black base replaced the white base versions; and the white base TA-300b are no longer made. I have gotten different answers about the differences between them and woul... |
