What do you need to know? Zu Audio have been making brilliant speakers for years.

Full range drivers, nearly, and without cross-overs they go particularly well with valve amps.

The article is a bit dated, it came out in June, however the speakers althought at the lower end of their price range look great.

At 999 dollars I'd buy a pair tomorrow if they were readily available.

Thanks.

I never hear about it before.

And also I hear that full range speaker is not good enough for audiophiles

Thanks for the info

Do you have access to Zu speakers for a demo, utomo? If so, I'd be interested to hear your thoughts. For me, the closest dealer is in Ingolstadt, Germany, a 800 km one way drive... Not very realistic, is it? :?

There seems to be a dealer in Manchester.

Yep - Audio Counsel. However, they are now on the outskirts of the borough of Oldham in Diggle rather than their previous address in Cheadle. I have popped in there and they seem a very nice, very accomodating company.

Audiophilliac? Sounds like some kind of disease.

It is. Normally seen in sane people going out and spending vasts sums of money for no logical reason.

Full-range drivers: great in theory, usually not so great in practice.
