| Another Zu Thread OP - Original PosterI will probably try some beefed up spikes at some point. | |
| Another Zu Thread We're the smallest cheerleading squad on the planet and just like a cheerleading squad, we're undermining our energies by focusing on that boy "Spike".This is a discussion for way down the road, like when the OP actually has the speakers. FWIW, I'... | |
| Another Zu Thread Having owned the Druids, Def. 1.5's and now Def. Pros, I can say these are all really different speakers. The Druids are mellower sounding than the other two but also less revealing. All can fill a large room with a handfull of watts. If you're a ... | |
| Single-driver speakers for 2W 45 SET monoblocks I had some Dared monos - but they were 300Bs. They didn't last a week, sounding muffled and mushy. I've heard others say that some of the Dareds are very nice and maybe yours are better.My aural memory is fading with the Druids since I haven't hea... | |
| Single-driver speakers for 2W 45 SET monoblocks What do you not like/not like about the Druids? I would speculate there are very few, if any, choices in that price range that would do significantly better across the board. The main difficulty is finding balanced sound in a 100+ db package is re... | |
| Gallo Reference 3.1 vs Zu Druid Having owned both, I would choose the Druids over the Gallos ten times out of ten. They sound like music to me where the Gallos sound like HiFi.You could hardly have chosen two more different sounding speakers. | |
| Best Bass Amp Strategy for Zu Def Pro Well, I've spent some time tweaking the K2 and it's a winner in this context. It's way overkill in the power department but it's quick, tuneful, and extremely strong. I've turned it down 10 db, based on a TacT corrected curve, to get it balanced. ... | |
| Tact Pre Amps The XP is a far superior piece, and I've owned the 2.0s, 2.2X, and XP. All processing is done in real time instead of waiting eons for a laptop to do it. And, TacT is actively involved in R&D and improving the functionality. | |
| Zu tone or Druid or which Omega ? The implication would be that these are "professional use" speakers that should be carpeted on the outside to prevent scuffing when treated like luggage and don't wake up without 1,000 watt amps and below 100 db. The comment was simply thoughtless... | |
| Zu tone or Druid or which Omega ? . . . If you want Rave speakers,then go with Zu. . .Zu has used their speakers in a club environment, but don't be fooled that these are rave speakers. They are harmonically dense, very dynamic, and unfatiguing.They are absolutely designed for sma... | |
| Best Bass Amp Strategy for Zu Def Pro I just plugged a new (used) Crown K2 into the subs last night and Wow. I can't say for sure whether I like the sound better but it sure is different. Plucking of bass strings has never been evident in my room before but it sure was last night.Over... | |
| Zu tone or Druid or which Omega ? Have you listened to single driver speakers before? Yes, the Druids/Tones are not technically single drivers but they share far more in common with SDs than conventional speakers.I'm sold on the Zu concept and have owned three of their models. I h... | |
| Tact Pre Amps 2.2XP If I were a manufacturer showing my wares, I don't think I'd use a TacT. The main reason is that you'd be showing a "corrected" sound which wouldn't be duplicated in a listener's home, unless they also used a TacT.Some might say that the room is a... | |
| Tact Pre Amps 2.2XP The XP has WAY more functionality than a 2.0s. I've owned the 2.0s, the 2.2X, and the 2.2XP. The XP has processors so fast that ALL corrections are done instantaneously.You don't have to use a laptop, but with the XP connected to the laptop you ca... | |
| Anybody heard the Lessloss DAC? Well, I've got one coming my way.More to be revealed . . . |
