Zu def 4 are they the best speaker made?


I have been a Zu fan for a long time starting with the presence and moving to Definition 3 then to Definition 4.

In my opinion if you like Americana, Rock music
Blues or Bluegrass, then these speakers with the right electronics and room, I really feel like the room matters as much as components.

these speakers lack nothing in my opinion you have great soundstage as well as intimacy and realistic bass.

i have tried a lot of different amps and preamps
But for me as Cobra from this site.  suggested a good 845 amp is a match made in audio heaven!

I'm using a Jhango passive and my 845 is a Larry Moore Monaco with some upgraded parts

Lampizator Dac and transport thru a MacBook Pro with Tidal and it’s simply amazing!!

for vinyl I have a modded table from George Merrill of Memphis Tn, great guy by the way.

and my phono pre is Heed quasar , nothing crazy expensive and I would put it up against anything I have had the pleasure to listen to.

my point is Zu makes a fantastic speaker on top of amazing customer service. But with the right gear they can sound as good as it gets.

i know that’s a bold statement but these speakers are so immediate and life like without any limitations that I can hear but it’s just my opinion.

Check them out for yourself, you may feel the same way.

yes luck midbass is issue, coudn  fixed by add active woofer module
because is cover 20-150hz, and  you can see  gap (if you use any measurement system)  up to 700Hz,   good designed 3 way conventional
speakers is free from this problem , using crosspoint 500-700hz, and
balanced . To avoid this issue  in  high sensitivity LS
based on wide range driver like Zu 10"   i see only one way  to add additional midbass driver to fill this gap , and make is active ( loaded
on separate amp and active crossover) i know is complicated , but
it was made it in  my  Bache audio-002 http://bacheaudio.com/bache-audio-002ab-loudspeakers-v2-stereotimes-com/


I'm sticking with "luck" as it seems more interesting. And to respond to his response, I use 3 way Klipsch Heresy IIIs crossing at 850 and 5000hz with 2 dissimilar REL subs (a 10' front firing and a an 8" down firing) so there is no luck of mid bass.
