| Another Zu Thread Hi Ron:That's interesting, as I also find that the further away I sit from the Druids the better integrated the sound.Thanks for your thoughtful posts on placement and room interaction!Regards,Max | |
| Another Zu Thread Hi Warren:I've got 9 of the 1" Apoints (without threaded bolt) and discs, but I'm using them elsewhere in the system. I tried a different approach and it seems to work for me, that's all I'm sayin'. Perhaps I'll get around to trying the Apoints un... | |
| Another Zu Thread Another trick that has worked fairly well for me in terms of tuning the downward bass port is placing a 11"x11"x3/4" piece of maple under each Druid. I tried fiddling with the spikes provided by Zu, but I can't seem to get them screwed in far enou... | |
| Integrated amp up grade? Hi Warren:Nice to see that you have moved to tubes and Zus. Great combination! I've had Druids with the Yamamoto A-08 for the past 18 months and diggin' it.Mastersound has a distributor in Canada, TriCell in the Toronto area: http://www.tricell-en... | |
| Any thoughts on the CD "trimmer" My understanding is that one source of light the AudioDesk lathe trimming is meant to address are reflections from the laser bouncing around inside the CD transport, as well as any stray light from the outside (since many trays are not hermeticall... | |
| Cartridge Advice Sought Marty,Thanks for the advice, good food for thought. I've done a bit of research on other 'tables and some that I've drooled over are models in the lower half of the range of brands like Acoustic Signature and Clearaudio.Stefan, thanks for your inp... | |
| Cartridge Advice Sought Hi Marty,Thanks for your post. Could you elaborate on why you feel the ProJect gear is the weak point? I'd also be interested in any suggestions of table/arm combos.Thanks.Max | |
| Analog point of entry... I just got back into vinyl playback about a month ago. Here's what I acquired for a total of about $1,200 US:- ProJect RPM-5 turntable with 9c tonearm (carbon fibre tube), comes with phono cable;- Clearaudio Aurum Classic Wood moving magnet cartri... | |
| One-box 1x Oversampling CD Player Gmood1,Thanks again for your help! | |
| One-box 1x Oversampling CD Player Thanks for the responses so far!Gmood1, I'm still using the Anthem CD-1 with upgrades, including SuperClock. I would prefer to stick with a one-box player, but if I go with separates the Shigaraki DAC would be on my shortlist of non-oversampling u... | |
| Anyone heard Zu Druid speakers? Driven by a 2Wpc SET 45-based tube amp in my relatively small listening room, the Druids are a revelation in terms of detail and coherency across the frequency range. They will also play plenty loud enough. True, they will not give you the last oc... | |
| 6 Moons Reviews Zu Cable Definition Speaker While it does seem that Srajan's reference gear changes on a somewhat frequent basis, he's usually pretty upfront about his motivations and desires.I've had my Druids (they were Runes until I had them upgraded back in April) for almost two years a... | |
| DK Design Group X-Dream - wow Guys, I wasn't bashing the speakers. I just feel that the reviewer, IMHO, did not really perform due diligence on behalf of the readers of PF. I simply posited a rhetorical question, given the lack of any comparisons with other gear, about whether... | |
| 7/7 London Robm321,Thanks and good point about no WoT threads.Regards. | |
| DK Design Group X-Dream - wow Um, most of my post above was meant to be a tongue-in-cheek, lighthearted poke at the reviewer and PF for having posted the X-Dream piece as a review when it would probably have been in the Features or Factory Tour section of other review publicat... |
