Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?

Charles1dad ,
In this case you're probably correct. But In all fairness to the more expensive gear, the Zu Defs are very amp friendly speakers. They would sound great with just about anything driving them right?

Markpao,
Yes the Zu is amp 'friendly' but that does`nt mean all amps will sound equally good with them. I`d think the Def IV has enough resolving ability to sort out the attributes of individual amplifiers.

Keithr has tried a fair share of amps,so for the Quad II amp to stand out reflects on it`s sonic performance even though competing with more expensive amps.The Quad is a simple circuir-straight forward design with good implementation, Often the less complex components sound bwtter.

By the way, I guess this would be a good a place as any to announce that I am the proud new owner of the Def 3. I've had them in my home for a few weeks now. Haven't had the chance to do much critical listening yet, but am loving what I hear so far.
They replaced my longtime (23 years) Klipshorns, do to an upcoming (downsize) retirement move. I was also running a sub with the Khorns, but there's no room for that in my new place either. So considering my 6 watt SET amp, and no room for a sub, I decided on the Def 3's

Can anyone comment on the level of difficulty in setting up the Def 4 speakers? I was a Soul Superfly owner and lover and when positioned just right, they were pretty exceptional in my shared living room. As my needs for that room evolved (along with furniture layout) I had an extremely difficult time coaxing the potential from them and ultimately gave up trying, intending to re-visit Zu when I sell my condo and have a larger space.

I'm still in the same room, but the temptation of trying the Def 4s is strong... Any insight?

Agear- I'm pretty much settled on tube right now. I've had Mcintosh and FirstWatt, so well aware of the best of SS type designs w/ Zu, which I'm sure ASR is in the same league as.

My room is a bit of a bear and eats bass, so that has led me to P/P amps in general--SET hasn't worked out in my room.
