Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Omens congested suggest they were probably not set up right.The only time I had them sounding congested was when there were no spikes under them, and when they were on spikes but set to low. They are bottom ported and very sensitive tofloor distan... 
Under $500 - Used CDP or DAC/Transport?
Check out the offerings from Emotiva. I have the new XDA 1 pre/dac and it sounds great. They also have their new cdp/transport that would be a great match with it. 
Did anyone hear the Zu room at CES/THE 2011?
Hi Team,I personally was not upset up at all about youropinion on the Zu's. There are a hundred variables to consider as we all know. I have mine singing in my room with just Emotiva gear.Many great speakers out there for sure! BTW.. I agree (some... 
Did anyone hear the Zu room at CES/THE 2011?
Hi Team212,Every ones ears are different, but "uninvolving" would be the farthest from what I would describe Zu as. I have Omen Defsand they are very involving! Rich, open, airy, super dynamic, and most of all musical. My guess is something was up... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Hey Sebrof,I started with the Omen, then got a pair of Omen Defs, and it was "WOW". The Omens on steroids without sacrificing anything. Just more of everything. Then traded them withabout 300 hours for a pair in Ghost black, and now have about80 h... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Ya know, I have to chime in here and say, I to am happy as a clam with my Zu Omen Defs. I am on the same page as Gpoweredwith his Lores!I have heard many systems, and even though I am a speakerW----, I cannot see myself buying another speaker (Unl... 
Best combination of sweetness and dynamics?
Third for Zu! 
What amp are you using with your Zu Essences?
Morganc,Yes, I am using it with a Peachtree Nova as a pre/Dacand the combo is wonderful! I want to maybe try tubessometime, but feel no need at the moment. 
What amp are you using with your Zu Essences?
Hey Phil,That's exactly what I was talking about, thanks! I knew it would not change the tonality but was thinking it may have a little more energy & punch perhaps. I will more than likelyrun the XPA-2 anyway, but was thinking if I did not nee... 
What amp are you using with your Zu Essences?
Thanks Phil & Morgan! I do have a XPA-2 that I was running with my standard Omens and thought it sounded way betterthan (using Peachtree as a pre/dac) just the Peachtree byitself. I guess thats the way I will run the Omen Defs.Also, I was thin... 
What amp are you using with your Zu Essences?
Been reading, and have a pair of Omen Def's on the way, andwonder why no mention of Peachtree as a recommended amp for Zu's as they were what was used at the shows mainly?? 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Gpowered,Sounds like the Lores are super sweet! With these speakers, it's all about set up. I to found 4' off the back wall to be the spot with the Omens. I went with the Omen Defs after all. 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Hi Gpowered, Thanks for the reply. Yes, actually more dynamics (among other things)are what I am hoping for over the standard Omen's not that they need it but if they build it that's what you would want right?The Omens are very refined also and I ... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Thank for the reply's! I had my Omens imaging like crazy, and think that is more a matter of "fine tuning" setup. I will think about the Lore's, but think the Omen Defs are the way to go for me.I have a buddy with the Super Fly's, and he is not 10... 
Zu Omen or Tekton Lore
Zman and Gpowered,Please post any further thoughts when you can. I'm trying to get a handle on how they may sound. I owned (just sold) Omens and loved them so much I am ordering a pair of Omen Defs tomorrow, but even before I sold the Omens, I was...
