Zu Soul Superfly

I just ordered a pair of the new Zu speakers on a whim. I was going to wait for information, but the fact that they threw in the free superfly upgrades to the first 30 people got me.

From a similar thread it sounds like some of you guys have heard the speaker despite information only being released today. I'm wondering what you can share about it?

Also, I am really hoping it works with a Firstwatt F1 amplifier. Can anyone comment as to that? I know the Druid's and Essences worked OK.

Got email from Zu. $1000 speaker coming.

Is that all they said? Because you've piqued the curiosity of my rather limited budget.

Maybe that $1,000 speaker comes packaged with the Superfly for $3,500 total?

I got the email too. Non-plodded as I have my order in for Superfly but... could it just be a slightly more organised version of the Superfly release for the.... Soul. The baths add up - originally pitched @ £1,800 and now with $800 off. Same differential as Superfly.

Or...

i bought soul superfly. wanted a second system in the spare room. maybe i should have waited for sub-$1000 zu speaker, would have been more sensible choice - financially.

Superfly price is as it was. Zu has a code problem on the web site that they, for whatever reason, haven't been able to fix.

The new speaker should be startling for the $1000 entry price, but it doesn't undermine Soul or Soul Superfly. They'll continue to be worth their price differential over the new entry model. Sean and Adam have a long-standing objective to deliver a truly Zu-worthy affordable dorm speaker. It looks like they've hit enough breakthroughs in their supply chain to make it happen without giving up the Zu FRD. We get details next week.
