Zu Soul Superfly
Gopher:I am merely pointing out that their pricing makes no sense and is very confusing.I am so releived to hear taht they have a long term plan. I hopes to gods it is better than their short term plan.I have no interest in talking to Zu CEO. He r...

Gopher:Yes, you are right! Soul is now $1800 MSRP and Omen is $1500 MSRPThese prices make no sense of course. Is Soul the standard or superfly? Why would anyone get $1500 Omen instead of $1800 Soul? It is laughable. I will laugh as pricing continu...

Are these the same speakers that were $999 recently? was taht a pre-order or a per-pre-order?and i could have swong the $999 price was discount for original $1500 MSRP.I cannot wait to see how Soul (maybe superfly, maybe not superfly) pricing evol...

The Decco/Nova is more than OK if your alternative is receiver. It is big step up from that.The DAC/Preamp section is very good and, if you hear some problem with your system and decide amplifier section is the solution, you have lots of opportuni... 
Need Help Starting from Scratch
Amp on Decco2 or iDecco (or even Nova) is not bad. More importantly, it works well with DAC, pre-amp, and "smooth" vs "sharp" filter. You do not have a big room, you will probably have enough power. And you do not need to worry about testing compo...

Sorry, I miss that$1500 list for omen$1800 list for soul$3500 list for superfly???Make no sense and not a sub $1k speaker in the lot 
Zu Soul Superfly
Hah! So not a single, standard Soul was ever sold for $1800, and may never be sold for $1800. Is funny.So, does Omen have internal foam wedge and also gapped plinth at bottom like Essence? 
Zu Soul Superfly
So, did zu sell a single soul for $1800?They have new CEO. I wonder if he create this problem or will fix it

F1audio: I ran Druids with host of class-d amps, lost patience, and switch to peachtree nova (SS).I also compare nova with HK3490 -- it is poor man Nova.I do not know if it is Sabre Dac vs Burr Brown, or pre-amp stage, or MOSFET vs whatever op amp...

Up on Zu. It is "Omen".Same FRD it looks like. 98 db/w/1m. looks like wide dispersion driver in horn supertweeter -- very strange. no idea how griewe loading is implemented$1500.no idea what pricing for superfly is -- don't think it can be $1800. 
Zu Soul Superfly
Got email from Zu. $1000 speaker coming.

Gopher: Yes, it is exactly this path you describe that I have no interest in getting on. I learn nothing about sound this way.Anyway, I have all solid state+DAC integrated and peachtree nova to test with druid -- i say goodbye to class-d forever! ...
