| What is the best loudspeaker for a small room? I agree with Branislav. Compared to many rooms on this site, this is hardly small. | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? My speaker wires terminate as banana plugs. The connections with the Def 2s were always tenuous. These are more secure. | |
| Top 5 Classical recordings I have classical CDs arranged by composer - ignoring the minor fillers. I have a separate section for CDs that have equally important compositions by more than one composer - arranged by "instrument." For example, I have a section of string music ... | |
| Modest Speakers for Large Room I use Zu Definition 4s. They are above your price point. However, Zu does make others that are less expensive; you might give them a call. Another thought is Lore. Although I have not heard the Lores, the have some similarities with Zu. Zu offers ... | |
| Modest Speakers for Large Room I also have a large space. My only comment is that large spaces can "kill" the sound of speakers that sound great in smaller spaces that are typical of a hi fi shop's listening room. You should try to negotiate an in-home audition. | |
| Top 5 Classical recordings I have been thinking about this thread and have come to the conclusion that it is an almost impossible task. I have more than 1000 classical CDs ranging from Renaissance polyphony to the present. I would, however, make two small contributions. For... | |
| The best acoustic guitar recordings?? A bit obscure, but the Melbourne Guitar Quartet's Toccata is superb | |
| A change of speaker impedance; is it possible? If there are multiple drivers that are wired in series, it is possible to markedly increase the impedance by rewiring them in parallel. Zu Definitions have just such an option. | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? I am with Gopher on this one. . . shiny, gloss, piano black. Somehow when paired with the aluminum trim, it seems elegant rather than "common." | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? Another reason that I nixed Dominance is that I have a single pair of speaker wires that run under my floor - down one wall, through the cellar and up the opposite wall. The electronics are on the opposite side of the room from the speakers. It wo... | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? My Def 4s sit only a couple of inches from the back wall - closer to the back wall than my previous Def 2s that were out about a foot. (Zu positioned both pairs without my input.) Given a 12" square footprint and a near wall position, Def 4s are a... | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? I briefly (very briefly!) flirted with the idea of Dominance before my upgrade to Def 4s. However, Dominance was too visually imposing, the size was simply unacceptable, and I am not that committed to "domestic high fidelity music reproduction." C... | |
| Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3? Although I have neither seen nor heard the Dominance, it is twice the footprint, 25% taller, and 250% the volume of the Def 4s. Not insignificant for real-world applications. | |
| Why did this fix my problem? Thanks! | |
| Zu Soul Superfly When I had Zu Def 2s, I tried 45 (Yamamoto), 2a3 (DeJa Vu Audio), and eventually 300b (Ancient Audio) SETs. In part because I have very long speaker cable runs - probably 50' or so from one side of the room, under the floor through the cellar, and... |
