Specific Specs to Recommend a Bookshelf Speaker
Zu audio cube may be a choice. Easy load, efficient with a large 10" frd which is excellent with voices. Sealed design. Generous 60day return policy. 
Ultimate sub?
6 moons like the new Zu Submission...... 
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?
The network is a cap and 2 resistors with Event cabling. I agree that Audyn and Clarity MR are 95% of Duelund but at 10% of the cost....... I quizzed Sean over them and he said to stick with Clarity unless going to Duelund....... In the DruidV My ... 
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?
Zu recommend the ClarityMR over the Audyn with the DruidV but the Duelund wins. Would upgrading the cap to Duelund in the Def 4 without upgrading the 2 resistors be of benefit as they are between the Cap and Radian? If it was me then Duelund resis... 
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?
I upgraded my 2 Mini Method amps to the new def 4 hypex versions, they are 400w as Phil says and sound far better than the old 120w ones. Bass is deeper and faster with way more headroom BUT the PEQ functions are far better allowing superior integ... 
black cat digital cable

Metrum Octave Mod and cable suggestion
RS Components 75ohm, they sent me a few for some reason. I can post 1 to you if you PM me your address.

I've had some extensive conversations with Sean regarding caps for the Druid mk5 upgrade. Clarity Cap MR is his favourite value for money cap with the Radian, very close to Duelund in the mk5 configuration. I had Mundorf SIO caps in my network alr... 
Metrum Octave Mod and cable suggestion
Do you have the details of the lundhl and where to buy it? How does it sound? I noticed an improvement with the chassis NBC connector to my metrum, be nice to improve it more if possible. 
Best Pre/Amp or Integrated for Zu Essence
Ask Sean at Zu........ He gives good honest advice on amps 
Compare Between Few Dacs
I replaced the spdif input rca for a true 75ohm bnc on my Metrum, 5 min job. It is worth it. I however use a JKMK3 which is Bnc out and a Blackcat Silverstar didital IC which is also bnc. Metrum is very nice, it replaced a W4S in my system. Bill i... 
Metrum Octave versus Eastern Electric DAC
I'd imagine a 75 ohm RCA chassis plug would be the same, maybe harder to source tho? In my case the Metrum is preceded by a Jkmk3 (bnc out) so keeping it all bnc was logical. The Silverstar has those adapters for RCA but it's more secure and direc... 
Metrum Octave versus Eastern Electric DAC
Black cat Silverstar75 is great value. I converted my metrum to BnC..... Simple and reversible. Worth doing as the RCA on the Metrum is generic and not 75ohm so will always be the weak link. 
Which speakers should I get. $500-$1000
Zu Omen...... On the Dirty weekend sale they have running now. 
Best speaker for Manley itube Stingray?
I have the Mahis with Zu....... Great combo
