Are Zu Druids really good HE speakers?

Indeed. An in home audition is the only way to know. We'll see. Anyone have a
pair of Druids and live near SE Michigan that wouldn't mind me stopping over for
a demo? Thanks all,

A friend invited me to listen to his new Druids. He was thrilled. He felt he was finally "there". The smile on his face was as wide as the couch he was sitting on. His eyes beamed with joy and excitement. He was dumping his $10,000 speakers in favor of these tall, thin, black wonderboxes. I believe he felt he finally attained audio nirvanna. BUT ... I didn't get it. Their sound had punch, but no weight. I did not find them musical at all. They had clarity but no depth. No ring. Almost as if you took a driver and hung it on a pole. It sounded like it was spitting out the correct frequencies, but they were dry as the desert. No tonal lushness at all. So I just smiled, tapped my toe to the "music", and made a hasty exit. Tarzan no like.

I'll chime in on the side of the Druid-lovers. I've had mine for ~3 months, and my wife often has to pry me away from them to get on with the rest of my life. I start to listen to one song, and the next thing I know, it's 4 hours later. I run them with modified Flying Mole digital amps, and they sound great!

Tvad,
Yikes! Good point. No harm intended toward unamed audio bud. I (me, I) just didn't get it. Perhaps I was experiencing an abnormally earwaxey kind of day. Yeah, that's it.
