Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?

I believe the cabinents are sourced from China. The reason I say this is because my dealer and I were talking about the "new" Adagio model and he called AZ to inquire when they would be ready. AZ informed him that they had a container in port waiting to clear customs. By the way, the new models have a slanted baffle to reorient the mid-range drivers (ala JMLAB Mini Utopia) to "focus" the sound toward the tweeter. Additionally, they now produce a monitor version of the Adagio with the same driver layout, about half as high with the transmission line exiting the rear of the speaker. New colors includiing a metallic/graphite.

As far as their provenence, I would say that they are designed and assembled in the US with parts sourced from overseas. Cool! Keep up the great work Robert Lee!

how do these speakers compare with the Proac D25 which is similar in price range ?

A question for you Adagio users, any thoughts on supports? I have a carpet on a suspended wooden floor and have the version of spikes with a blunt rounded end, though of course I can change to true spikes. Has anyone experimented with supports for the speaker, not too obtrusive if possible? Additionally, any thoughts on positioning. Ihave mine about 7ft apart straight down the room with no intowing and about 15 inches from bookshelves behind. I think these speakers are so good, they deserve a bit of effort to get the very best out of them.

I can't believe the comment made by Yagbol2!! i have personally been to the factory in san diego and i'm a true witness that the whole line of acoustic zen products are made there!! that is absurd! Yagbol2, if you are ever in the san diego area you should call mr. Lee and i'm pretty sure he can arrange a mind boggling tour!!!!

Yagbol2 your commnets are unbelievable! Word of advice .... if you are not sure, do not say it. It will hunt you forevere !!! I am about an hour from Acoustic ZEn Factory and I have seen those guys making the Adagio. I've seen them making from thier ribbon tweeter to connecting all the crossover. I bought two pairs......
I know I was in San Diego, and not in China.... coz I used yahoo driving instruction!!! My SUV could not fly or swim... so I think I am sure I was in San Diego!!
I encourage you Yagbol2... my friend to visit them.
