Pls share your experience with Zu Soul or Zu in general


I've ordered a set of Zu audio's Soul speakers. I am thoroughly excited although I don't expect to see them until June.

In fact I've gone gung-ho on the Zu philosophy,  buying on e-bay old stock Zu interconnects, mains, and speaker wire with their proprietary ZuB3 connector.

I'd really like to hear - good or bad - other people's impressions about Zu Soul and Zu in general.

I’ve listened to the Defs and Soul many times, many different front ends (mostly tubes), and I’ve rarely come away satisfied. Nearly all the time experienced ear-piercing sound to varying degrees. In fact, only twice have I heard them sound good, both times when they were set up by a person named Ron (forget last name) who had some kind of association with the company. Yet still not enough to get me to buy a pair. Yes, they are "fast", an attribute of which their owners are very proud. But they’ve never drawn me into the music or performers. To my ears they are more of the tizz-boom flavor of sound.
