Zu Soul Superfly


I just ordered a pair of the new Zu speakers on a whim. I was going to wait for information, but the fact that they threw in the free superfly upgrades to the first 30 people got me.

From a similar thread it sounds like some of you guys have heard the speaker despite information only being released today. I'm wondering what you can share about it?

Also, I am really hoping it works with a Firstwatt F1 amplifier. Can anyone comment as to that? I know the Druid's and Essences worked OK.

I too wonder whether to order the Omen at 999 or the Sould for 500 more? At this moment their pricing and line is very confusing.
Have had the Soul Superfly for a few weeks now. It's just what I was looking for, a Druid++.
Gopher,

I see that the Dynaco and the F1J are both up for sale. What did you end up settling on for your Superflys?
Roscoeiii,

I saw your message on AC and was going to respond after tonights events (just got out of Roger Waters doing "The Wall" at Nassau Collisium--amazing).

I haven't actually settled on anything yet. I've been talking quite a bit with Phil behind the scenes about potential upgrades and had resolved to purchase a Chinese EL156 integrated when I stumbled upon an Atma-sphere S-30 within my budget.

I figured due to the fact that the integrated is available all day every day at the same price while S-30s barely ever come up used, I would give it a whirl.

I had just finished resolving not to buy an amp with exposed tubes, but somehow convinced myself that if I do like this solution I can rig something up to keep my kid and pets away.... it will probably look terrible, but next weeks listening sessions should be interesting.
An S-30 here really caught my attention too. Incredible amps. And always nice to see Ralph from Atamasphere on these boards. Had the pleasure of meeting him in the Twin Cities. I hope to have an S-30 someday.
