6 Moons Reviews Zu Cable Definition Speaker He rents a place. No matter where he got the money, he clearly isn't made of it. | |
6 Moons Reviews Zu Cable Definition Speaker The main drivers cover 40 hz to 25 khz and are covered by your main amps. The internal amplifiers power only the sub drivers on the back from 40 hz downward to 16 hz. So, they are atypical powered speakers.I got the Druids before Srajan and own th... | |
6 Moons Reviews Zu Cable Definition Speaker Srajan's turned over a new leaf. Check out his "Realsizing" series and any of the latest series on the lo-power, hi-eff phenomenon. The basic premise is "how can I minimize $$ without losing the musical message." He dumped his $5k Audiopax preamp ... | |
6 Moons Reviews Zu Cable Definition Speaker The Druids are utterly amazing. They are the most lifelike speaker I've ever heard. The peakiness typical of many hi-eff speakers is MIA - they're flat as a pancake but with HUGE dynamics. I traded in my Gallos for them and to me, no contest - the... | |
Anyone heard Zu Druid speakers? I own the Druids. I echo 213cobra's observation - Srajan's review sounds like something I would write if I could write. | |
Anyone heard Zu Druid speakers? They utterly trounce my former Gallo Ref. 3's. Srajan's description matches mine and several other owners' to a T.They play anything and everything, at any volume without losing composure. I've played them at 105 db in my house on a 6-watt amp wit... | |
Fostex based speakers: Cain Abby or Omega Super3R Excellent comparison. | |
From Avantgarde to a conventional speaker? 101 db efficient, single driver + supertweeter. 40 hz - 20 khz, even response.These are neutrally dynamic and cover the range except the first octave with style. They have pop WAY beyond any multi-way I've heard.Interestingly, Avantgard-owner Sraj... | |
Fostex based speakers: Cain Abby or Omega Super3R I'm in Seattle. Call Sean at Zu (owner, usually answers phone!). He'll check out their database and try to connect you with someone in your area.If you can get here, I'll sure entertain. You bring the beer! :) These are truly Special, but I've got... | |
Fostex based speakers: Cain Abby or Omega Super3R Right on! They're awesome. They won't change character with break in, but their strengths will increase and they will become more transparent and lifelike. | |
Omega Super 3 or Axiom M22Ti on Sonic Impact T-Amp I used the TNT audio "Big Fun Box" as the baseline and added every tweak I could find. They are good enough that I couldn't stand listening to my Gallos anymore and sold them immediately.These are weakest in blazing guitar music, which I don't lis... | |
Omega Super 3 or Axiom M22Ti on Sonic Impact T-Amp I haven't heard either speaker. However, I currently own the Clari-T amp, based on the same chip, and two pairs of speakers that are exceptional with it.Get the Omega 3's. Here's why - What's great about this amp is a combination of a) the amp; an... | |
Cain Abby vs Reference 3a De Capo i Speaking of speakers, Srajan has bought a pair of my favorite speakers and will be reviewing them soon. He's gonna review them with my (and Gmoon1's) favorite amp if he can. Can you say "ultimate fidelity"? Can you say $3,300 for amp and speakers?... | |
Cain Abby vs Reference 3a De Capo i The disagreement between Gliderguider and Gmood1 is almost entirely a matter of taste. If you're looking for utmost extension at either end, the Abbys ain't gonna get it. If you like to rock and play it loud, it's no contest.For transient response... | |
Cain Abby vs Reference 3a De Capo i I think the single-driver + supertweeter is the key to ultimate greatness. Properly executed, single drivers have very little holding them back, plus they allow superior but lower powered amps. Throw in a pair of subs and you lack for nothing, plu... |
