Who are these crazy people?
>>01-19-11: Tgrisham"I love this idea. It reminds me of the days of sitting in a dorm room with close friends and deciding which album to put on, then listening to all of it."<<I tell me teenage sons about how we used to do that, when ... 
Speaker cable made in USA?
Zu Audio Mission cables, should be close to $300 depending on length. 
Sonist
Funny - I was cruising old posts and noticed that all 3 who liked the Sonoists and responded to Bogiedr ended up with some sort of Zu. 
ZU OMEN speakers 12ohms??
>>01-09-11: Cwazz"Can we get back to the original question ,,,and has any bought the Omens yet and have a review of them?"<<I bought the Omens and have probably less than 100 hours on them, so too soon to do an in-depth review. I drive... 
Maggies with Tubes?
I usually ignore those with cut and dry no nonsense answers that apply to everyone and every situation. 
integrated SET amp for $1000
Well, kinda hard to answer "how hard" but I have had electronics Bench tech type jobs years ago so I've soldered a lot of things in my day. I think it would be difficult but do-able for someone with zero experience in electronics or soldering, but... 
integrated SET amp for $1000
I have Zu Omens and Tekton Katz Meow (not the current model). Can't go wrong with either Lore or Omen IMO.Sounds like a great choice in amps as well. Good Luck!! 
What are the best live acts?
I saw Big Head Todd and the Monsters a few weeks ago. I've got a couple of his albums but not really a fan.He puts on one heck of a show. Lots of energy.

">>01-07-11: SystembuilderI was looking at the quad esl's and people say they wont play loud but how loud is loud? Is more of a question of House party loud or just rocking out?"<<Drop $35 or whatever on a Radio Shack meter and you'll ... 
integrated SET amp for $1000
Take a look at tubeaudiolab.com. Min may be able to make you what you want. I built the one you see in my system, got the case and parts from Min.Sounds nice to me, but I can't comment too much on how it compares to other 2A3s, 300bs, etc.

01-05-11: Phaelon"one reason older tube amps are so desirable is that the output transformers in tube amps take forever - years - to fully break in. This is one large advantage five to ten year old amps have over new ones."It's not unusual for me ... 
Best Towers Under $1500 for beginner system
I also own the Zu Omens (I am still auditioning them), and I would recommend for a beginner system for 2 reasons: 1. They do a lot of different music well, so as you get into this hobby and undoubtedly discover new music the Zus will not slow you ... 
Fun Little Project for improving Dynamics
I just bought Zu Omens - 60 day money back. I'll keep them or not on how they sound. If I looked at specs only I certainly would not have look at Zu (I've not seen Omen specs, but Druids with similar driver look terrible). They sound pretty good, ... 
New Zu Mission cable
Also take a look at the Zu logo on the bottom of the speakers. It used to be a Zu in a circle (it is on my Omens that I got just last week). Now the logo you see when you first open their site is on the bottom of the speakers (in the pictures at l...
