| Zu Soul Superfly From my talks with Sean, the Omen uses the Druid frd with new phase plug, the Soul the new frd with More attack and faster transients ESP in kick drum areas of bass/mid. The Soul/Omen could be upgraded to almost superply status for $250 yourself i... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly The omen frd is the Druid mk4/08 with the new (essence) phase plug. The soul frd has a 60oz magnet and lighter paper cone..... Is completely different with the same phase plug. Not sure about the omen tweet. The mesh screen protects the dome accor... | |
| Review: Zu Druid Mk IV 2008 Speaker Replace to hi pass cap and resistor with Mundorf sio ala Def2 and the treble comes to life, but still not overdone or bright. Nice review, these speakers sound alive, different to multiple driver/crossover types. The music, especially guitar solos... | |
| Small DAC With Balanced Outs Channel islands Audio VDA2 is balanced out if used with the Harmonic Tech cable. It locks on when a signal is present otherwise is off. I use it with the VAC1 power supply. | |
| What Speakers to use in a bar/restaurant environment Genelec sound great, very clean with huge soundstage. Professional studio stuff though that can get expensive. Mackie also make some nice gear. | |
| Great 16 ohm Full Range loudspeakers Zu Soul superply, 16ohm, 101db efficiency. I haven't heard them but I have other 12ohm Zu speakers which I like. | |
| Zu Soul Superfly Themadmilkman...... I have the Druids and due to the shipping costs to Australia I decided to try to upgrade them rather than ship out new Souls. I contacted Sean and after a few email exchanges he came up with a few ways to improve the Mk4/08 Dri... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly What is the difference in sound between1 and 2 x1uf mundorf silver oils? I have a single mundorf 1uf on my Druid Mk4/08 tweet | |
| Zu Soul Superfly After speaking to Sean he says the new FRD will have more pop in the mid bass but slightly less deep bass than the mk4/08 the combo of lighter cone and stronger motor. Should also have slightly more dynamic scale....... Wider soundstage would also... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly My room is large and L shaped, this is why I'm interested in the wider dispersion of the soul FRD. It measures 6m wide by 9m long with the foot of the L extending a further 6m. 6m is around 20ft. Carpeted with soft furnishings. on One wall is a gl... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly I found Zu varial and especially the Ash digital Ic to really open up the HF, compared to cardas and stereovox. I think as my pre and power amps are tubed maybe it was dark before?For me it had more effect than changing amps? | |
| Zu Soul Superfly gopher......The soul upgrade drivers will cost $400 after $200 back when I return my mk408 frdthe Duelund 10ohm resistors $40as I live in Australia the the shipping cost is $1k and the upgrade to soul after selling Druids wld be another $1k..... I... | |
| What percentage of audiophiles use a sub ? The only way to get real feel in the music is to use subs...... But not the boomy flabby type. A good sub(or2) will effortlessly fill in the lower bass regions, give dynamics and scale but without blowing your ears out.This takes time, the right e... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly I contacted zu about possible upgrades to my Mk408 Druids. Sean said the new soul frd would provide more mid presence at the expense of a liitle bass output. 12 ohms vs 16 ohms means my mundorf 1.0 cap and 12 ohm duelund resistor will need to be c... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly Thanks, given the expense of shipping speaker to Australia it's probably not worth it.... However I may see if Zu would swap the FRD only in the future.....I've also been thinking about remaking the Druid cabinet using some bitumen laminated noise... |
