Acoustic Zen Adagio, How Good Are They?


Just read the glowing review in TAS. Has enyone heard these and if so is all the positive press justified?

I read somewhere (maybe on this thread?) that the Adagios have been modified to "focus the sound toward the tweeter."

Has anyone heard both versions to comment on the difference? Also, how would a buyer know whether he was buying the "original" or "revised" model?
Read somewhere that AZ is working on a sub for the Adagios. Anyone heard the sub or have have any info on them? Sounds like the monitors and sub might be the ultimate setup for these.
It was strange that there were no Adagios at the RMAF, or at least I could find none. What I heard at the Audio Zen suite was a very poor sounding larger speaker. It was so bad I could not stay in the room to ask anything about it.

The Red Dragon room had what I think was their speaker. It too was dreadful.

Last year the Adagios with the Red Dragons were the best sound IMHO. This year I spent no more time in either than I could.
Rja, As far as I know the sub is available, when I bought my Adagios there was some info with it, with a picture. It is called the Allegro, available in the same colours, I believe for $3000. 1000watt amp, 92db sensitivity, Frequency 19 to 100hz+- 3db, H 18", W 29", D 19". Personally, the Adagios have enough base for my needs.
