Decision between Zu Definition OR VS DB99

For what it's worth Gregm's identification of how the 99's sound from the specs is spot on. Meaty/dynamic and very good sound imaging. I would add that with the 99's rear firing tweeter with ambience control one can adjust for pinpoint or focused imaging to more dispersion with the turn of the dial. Sound stage depth/width/highth are all there. Singer is in the room. I would add "clean" to the descriptor list for the 99s.

Still-- gotta be someone out there who has heard/compared both. How about those who have attended audio shows?

The Druid comes much closer to the performance of the Definitions than an educated guess would allow. Someone wrote not long ago that the Druid provides 75% of the performane for a third of the price. If anything that is an underestimate. The Druid is far better than it appears in pictures. In fact, I suspect it would embarras many vaunted designs by famous manufacturers. My guess is we'll be hearing much more from Zu.
I know nothing about the DB 99 so I can't provide the requested comparison.

Guys,

I own both the Druids & the Definitions. They have a similar "voice" but the Definion has a better (IMHO)presentation of low level detail & micro dynamics, and obviously the bass. The bass from the Definition is so fast & clean. The Druid MK 4 is a little bass shy, but it was never marketed as a full range speaker.

Great customer service & great products!

I am adding a third speaker to the above two, the AG Duos. I am getting a fantastic deal on them and they are pretty much the same price of the above two. How would the Duos compare with the Zu's Definition and VSA DB99.
Thanks

Interesting. Maybe the smaller *sounds* clean, or "faster"?

The differences, such as they may be, can probably show up easily on orchestral music (classical).

I think Ton1313 could help here:
Trying out a piece that requires a full symphony orch -- just to gauge if the bigger speakers allow one to "see" more of the musicians; it doesn't matter if the upchain system is different.

You guys have got me intrigued by these spkrs:)
