Zu def 4 are they the best speaker made?
I have been a Zu fan for a long time starting with the presence and moving to Definition 3 then to Definition 4.
In my opinion if you like Americana, Rock music
Blues or Bluegrass, then these speakers with the right electronics and room, I really feel like the room matters as much as components.
these speakers lack nothing in my opinion you have great soundstage as well as intimacy and realistic bass.
i have tried a lot of different amps and preamps
But for me as Cobra from this site. suggested a good 845 amp is a match made in audio heaven!
I'm using a Jhango passive and my 845 is a Larry Moore Monaco with some upgraded parts
Lampizator Dac and transport thru a MacBook Pro with Tidal and it’s simply amazing!!
for vinyl I have a modded table from George Merrill of Memphis Tn, great guy by the way.
and my phono pre is Heed quasar , nothing crazy expensive and I would put it up against anything I have had the pleasure to listen to.
my point is Zu makes a fantastic speaker on top of amazing customer service. But with the right gear they can sound as good as it gets.
i know that’s a bold statement but these speakers are so immediate and life like without any limitations that I can hear but it’s just my opinion.
Check them out for yourself, you may feel the same way.
