Shameless Poll: Pearl vs Ohm vs Zu


Santa Claus drops a pair of speakers under your tree in the middle of the night, what do you choose:

  • Pearl Acoustics Sibelius
  • Ohm Walsh 2000
  • Zu Union Supreme 6
  • Bonus Option: Something from Decware with a Lii Song Driver

Extra credit if you add an amp < $5k to the wishlist.

Danke

@ahillenb Sad to hear you had to sell everything!  I think you are on the tight track with a high efficiency speaker paired with a First Watt (or Pass XA-25?).  I find the U6S to be fairly linear sounding below and above my preferred listening volume which is typically peaking in the mid 80 dBs. I'm sure the room plays a role here too. I would consider talking to Zu about your experience and they might help you decide on which speaker would work best. 

If you go the Lii route, I think you will want a subwoofer or two. 

I will sincerely decline these offers but hand in my wish list to Santa for next Xmas.

In the past 3 months I gifted myself a set of Zu Omen Def Supremes and a Pass Labs XA25 amp. I think I am done, will likely leave these 2 in my will.
