  OK...ONE LAST SPEAKER QUESTION cash cash
before i write the chegue,i gotta' ask all in the know:the sound difference between VSA DB-99 and Zu Definition????? i know by all reports these are very close in all repects like value and performance,but total different sound.i am leaning to the Zu side of the fence.cost is almost the same,so that's not a factor.the drive amp will be a VAC 30/30 Sig.3 [front end is Sonic Frontier--getting old but still works.]Zu said they can burn them for 14 days so the sound should be almost complete out of the box.what to do???????

I'm driving my Def Pros with a Red Wine Clari-T on top and a Pass Aleph 30 on the woofers. Very nice. Yesterday I ordered Vinnie's Signature 30 amp which I expect to be a giant improvement. Apparently I'm not the only one who knows about this new unit. It's only been available for a few weeks and there is already a waiting list.
As for your VAC amp, I'd have to guess it is pretty near the ideal product to be driving Definitions. I have no experience with it myself but I can recall universal rave reviews running for years on that amp with the only limitation being power output which should certainly not be a problem with your new speakers. Congratulations.
