Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?

Hi Morgan. I have your kind of hearing issues, and highs that tend to the edgy, like produced by many "detailed" audiophile speakers, are hard on me. I got a bit of this when I heard the otherwise very nice Soul Superfly, and when I was seriously considering the Omen Def, Sean (who is very helpful), said he could address it with a modestly priced cap upgrade. I'm now very intrigued by the Def 4; I hope they bring them to RMAF.

I agree with Phil about Def 4 vs Def 2 break-in. With the cavear that my Def 4s had more than the usual break-in and play time before I received them in October, they have changed very little since then. By contrast the Def 2s evolved over the course of 9-10 months. . . if not longer.

Ok, now I'm convinced the Def4s are the way to go , a matter more serious than sound quality, which finish to choose - one must be happy, but ensure one's girlfriend is even happier!
Seriously, Sean and now Gerrit and Christian are on the case and will be sending me samples for ghost black, true matte black, charcoal, cosmic carbon and gloss black. Def4 (and other Zu owners) please pass comments - my Def2s are Nextel grey, but I fancy another grey or black finish this time around, so far I'm veering towards paying the premium for gloss black.

Spiritofmusic,
Congratulations! I believe you are going to be very happy with them.

I have the gloss black. To me it is the most sophisticated of the black finishes. You should also consider whether to leave the aluminum natural or have it anodized.
