Best SS amp for Zu Druid Mk IV speakers


Down-sizing and want low cost Solid State option that I can leave on all the time - I know its sad
saffy
The Definition is rewired by putting the drivers in series rather than parallel. It should not be all that expensive. Your Bel Canto will have an easier time with the high impedance- it should sound better with more extension- low impedances are not easy for tubes or transistors- they both sound better driving high impedances.

So this is a very good argument for the First Watt as well, which IMO is almost the only game in town if you want transistors for this speaker, or any other high efficiency speaker for that matter.
Im using a Nuforce IA-7 with my Druids, and am very happy with the results. THe Nuforce hasd great control over the bass.
Atmashphere, what about the dB level? Figure my Definitions are putting out 116db, now. Will I get a higher spl? Thanks again.
Hi (Bill) Audiofeil. I know you are a Zu dealer and wonder why you haven't answered my questions regarding the Zu products, particulary since I emailed you on the aside. Anyway how 'bout this one? Will Zu mod my Defs to Atmasphere's recommendation? How much will it cost? I would love to have an answer to my original question, as well. thanks again.
best,

Ralph, what is given up by high-efficiency, high-impedance speakers? I figure something must give, otherwise why would many well-known high-end speaker manufacturers make speakers that drop down to 2 or 3 ohms with efficiencies in the 80s? I've read where you like the Coincindent Speakers.
Frequency Response: 30hz - 30khz
Impedance:8 ohms ( min. 7.9 - max. 10 ohms )
Sensitivity: 92 db - 1w @ 1m

How can they have these kind of specs when you've got near top of the line Aerials, Wilson, Avalon, etc. with low impedance dips and lower efficiencies?
