| Usless but interesting ....how many of you old timers started with original Large Advents? Large Advents since 1974, stacked with the 25th Anniversary version. Pulled them out last year for Jimmy Smith’s Hammond B-3 and massive pipe organ music. I’m giving my ZU DRUIDs a rest because these are a lot of FUN. The electronics upstream a... | |
| Zu Audio Druid MKIV Speaker Review Mr. Naaggots, you mentioned somewhere that you thought the 12 ohm Mills resistor to be a better match for the Druid IV tweeks when caps are upgraded. Can you elaborate please? | |
| Dynaco ST-70 match with ZU - Druid MK 4 speakers? I use a pair of tricked out Dynaco MKIII monoblocks and modded up PAS to dive the Druids. Beats the big modern ss and SET amps I've used for dynamic presence and bringing the music to life. The power can bring down the house, but the textures at l... | |
| One sub or two or none? Actually, I agree with all of the observations here! On the question of using one or two subs, the room characteristics are important. In my experience, it is not just the presence of low frequency, but the also how the room is pressurized by the ... | |
| Does you wife touch your system? No, it is all too much at this stage...but she lends me her ears to keep the music real! I married her in the '70s for her Frazer "Black Box 1"s, Elac tt, SCA-35, and FM3 which she could operate :-) | |
| KT-88's better than EH ... Audioquest4life,How has the JJ burn-in gone? I am also at a crossroads. (I will be strapping KT88 rertomodded Dynaco MKIIIs into triode or maybe tetrode.) | |
| Zu speakers with Atma-Sphere M60 amplifiers Regarding the use of 60wpc amps (like the Atma-Sphere M-60s), my Druid pair performs very nicely with a pair of Dynaco MKIIIs (re-built and ammended). Overkill, perhaps, but it's like having horsepower under the hood you'll never need. I know, SET... | |
| Microscope for stylus inspection Dweller,Can you tell me where you got your 30X hand held scope?Thanks, | |
| Has anyone modified a Miller & Kreisel subwoofer Yes! Contact the "Electro Mavin" in Athens, TN. He purchased all of Ken Kreisel's last iteration of sub drivers, the "Superfast Deep Bass." They are a direct replacement driver and work well in the V-2b. Check e-bay or do a search.Now, these are s... | |
| Does anyone know the power rating of the M&K V1B ? 100W I believe. The speaker to get is the last one Ken Kreisel developed before the door closed--a guy called "The Electro Mavin" from Athens, TN bought the entire stock and sells 'em on eBay. They are the "Superfast Deep Bass." Efficient, fast, a... | |
| An Advent Guy My stacked walnut cased Large Advents powered by a pair of KT88 tube monoblock amplifiers. The crossover capacitors were inexpensively upgraded (Solen caps) and the stuffing was adjusted. I also put good wire inside. These speakers have been subje... |
