Phil, the longer the better, I have precisely $Nada in the savings account for Defs V.

Well Phil, as you know I've made great strides w my Defs IV, fascinated to extrapolate where the Druids V to VI impvts you'll be commenting on might extend to future Defs V.

Eagerly awaiting Phil's review of the Druids VI. What he doesn't know about Zu sound, esp comparisons, is not worth knowing.Phil, bated breath and all that.

Hi Phil, count me as a second person v interested in your thoughts on Druid VI.I'm now a decade long customer of Zu, firstly the Def 2 in 2008, followed by the Def 4 in 2012, and Duelunds/Lundahls upgrade in 2016.Now I've upgraded my room and powe... 
Zu Soul Supreme Recap -- Owners, what are your preferred system pairings with them?
Big thumbs up for Nat Audio tube gear from Serbia, on my Zu Definitions 4 spkrs.70W SE2SE 211s have replaced 35W Audion Black Shadow 845s, plus the Utopia tube pre.Have never looked back.

Mlsstl,  I'm a prog rock fan as well as Zu acolyte, so you're mentioning all the BEST things.The BEST genre, thru the BEST spkrs, sounds the BEST ever.Now, are we done? LOL

Dentdog, I can categorically acknowledge your sentiments. I'm truly getting that "after midnight" sound 24/7.And with the move to a more acoustically even and sympathetic space, the Def4s have never sounded better.

Kdude, that's the most pointless comment I've seen on a forum in a long time.

Noromance, I love my valves too (running Nat Audio Utopia pre and 70W 211s SE2SE monos), but I feel I’m missing nothing w the SS Straingauge.It can lack warmth w the stock DC 24V wall warts, but using my Peter Downs bespoke psu to the cart energis...

Hi Noromance, I had a big delay in reinstalling my analog as I first got my dedicated listening space built, and second, accidentally tripped my Straingauge necessitating a 4 month repair delay.Ive always known the stock psus on the Salvation tt s...

Parsons, that’s excellent news. There’s always a danger that if a new product sounds more “nuanced”, “refined”, “accurate” etc, it may lose its joie de vivre, immersiveness, heft, drive.It sounds like the VIs are not falling prey to improved SQ at...
