| Acoustic Zen Crescendos- Any Owners Out There? Jeff,My tastes run the gamut- in some semblance of 'airtime':Rock / pop 40%Blues 30%50's / 60's Jazz 20%World/Ethnic/Anything goes 10%What I EMPHATICALLY don't listen to are so-called audiophile recordings. | |
| Acoustic Zen Crescendos- Any Owners Out There? I am most definitely not experiencing one note bass. In fact, the bass of the Crescendos seems more articulate than my previous speakers, Monitor Audio GS 60's. I am hesitant to post any type of full review just yet for several reasons. The speake... | |
| Acoustic Zen Crescendos- Any Owners Out There? Well then...It seems that I am one of a select few that have gone and ordered the Crescendos, and will have to take great care in reporting on their sound...To be continued next week- delivery is scheduled for Tuesday. | |
| Hafler preamps - good, not so good, and history? I guess I should also add that I owned the Adcom 565, and it had none of the issues I talked about regarding the Hafler preamps. I recently sold the 565 and at 14 years old, still had no switch or other noise. | |
| Hafler preamps - good, not so good, and history? I have had a Hafler preamp, amps (DH... & DH...), and I loved the sound, but would never buy a Hafler preamp now.After a short period (1 year and on), every Hafler preamp in my circle of friends ( 3 or 4 of us) developed noisy, damn near explo... | |
| Who OWNS Zu Audio Speakers- Especially Definition So... I got my Definition 2's on Dec.23. I wanted to wait until they had some hours on them before commenting. I'll start off by saying that break-in is a major factor with these. The Zu website says as much, but I always figure that's just a ploy... | |
| Who OWNS Zu Audio Speakers- Especially Definition I just got the tracking number yesterday, so the Definitions are on their way. I will post my impressions after a week or two, and compare them to my current Monitor Audio GS60's plus REL Britannia B2 sub. | |
| Who OWNS Zu Audio Speakers- Especially Definition I went to the Zu website, and it looks like they raised the price of the Definitions to $11,000 from $9,999. I'm glad I ordered when I did... | |
| Who OWNS Zu Audio Speakers- Especially Definition Keith,No, I have not received them. I placed the order on October 29th, so I would have expected them by now. As far as I know, they have not even shipped yet. I just sent an email to follow up on their progress. Jim | |
| Who OWNS Zu Audio Speakers- Especially Definition Sprink,This is of interest to me too- when I started this post, I should have included the fact that most often I am closer than 8 feet from the speakers, and most of my listening is done off axis anyway. If I sit 'audiophile style', I can be the ... | |

| thoughts on NAD M3 I had an M3 for a year. The best way I can describe it is this: It sounds very good, will play very loudly without strain, and has many setup options(input level matching, sub out jacks, etc.).But... It just lags a split second behind in its timin... | |
| Juicy Music Blueberry vs Audio Research LS26 or ? I'm running the pimped out 6H30 'DR' tubes. These are as good as it gets from what I can tell... The 6h30 tube does not have a deep NOS bench from which to choose. When I switched from the stock Sovteks to the DR version, the noise issue was about... |
