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 had the threaded glider 3/8"-16 (1 inch long) for my Souls.

I exchanged it when I sold the Souls in favor of the Cone/Spike Decoupling Glider which does the same thing, but is universal with other spiked speakers.
Has anyone here heard the new nanotech HO driver in the Soul Superfly MK.1-B? Really curious to know how it sounds in comparison to the driver in the Zu Omen.
I couldn't compare it to the Omen, but I heard the nanotecs in a Superfly this past Saturday and it was pretty stunning. It was fed by a cherry amp which is an 'unusual' pairing for a 101db speaker at 700wpc, but it was a great match.

The resulting sound was more transparent, refined and dynamic then I recalled my Superflys being. The stage was also far bigger than I remembered. I got a taste of what the Def 4s could do at that same meet, but truthfully, upstairs the nano'ed Souls were more impressive for the coin.

On a side note, I'm returning to team zu! Tomorrow morning I'm picking up a Piano Black pair of Definition 2s which I plan to install nanotec drivers in. Speaking to Sean it appears they are far easier to place then the Soul Superflys and can get very close to my front wall which is a HUGE plus for me. Can't wait!!
Have mine 12" from the front wall with great results. You are in for a sweet ride.

Upgrade the super tweeter then buy the new Zu amp for the subs and do a little reinforcement of the box and presto you have MK3.

Oh forgot, rewire with Stage 3 Concepts wire for a better speaker than the Def4 LOL.
