Question about Druids

Since Zu has such a liberal home audition policy, why would anyone who just bought a pair that is "not even broken in", sell them for a 1K loss? Why not just take advantage of the return option and pay the shipping back to the factory? This makes no sense to me. Any ideas?

When you speculate "air" you have quite a large room for negotiable prices so there's no loss dude...

P.S. Druids once long time ago were one of my favourite tale heroes

Gentelmen, I never had the pleasure of hearing the Zu's. Did the performance prompt the rapid return of the speakers, to include the $1k loss?

I think this must be the ad that provoked this thread. I also think that Ozzy62 asks a valid question and that the comment about discounts (which might be true for all I know) remains unsubstantiated.

Only the seller knows his real reason for taking such a hit.....maybe one of us should ask him. I'll do it.

Six months to break a speaker in? I think it's the users ears that are being "broken in"....

My position on this has always been that the longer the "required break in period," the more of a chance that the owner will become accustomed to the sound of the speaker. It's the ears that are breaking in after 50 hours, not the drivers....
