Zu Druid IV - the real deal?

Most people will not put in the time to learn Burn in.. It takes a lot of patience, NOT LISTENING... You do not sit and listen for 15 hours straight and decide to see if something happens. But this much I can Guarantee, TUBES, Capacitors, And even Drivers will change sound character after being under continuous load for a good solid week to 2 weeks straight, then when you shut it down and turn back on it will be pretty stable but still take maybe a half hour to warm back up to the 95% level it was at after the Serious burn in occured for a couple weeks.

There are a lot of backyard mechanics on this site that have heard their system in bursts, for 3 hours here, 2 hours there, another 5 hours over there.. So what, leave em' on and burn in new caps, drivers or tubes and there is Change whether you believe it or not, whether it is for better or worse, normally for better, better soundstage, smoother transient response, things don't sound as artificial.. Kinda how a brand new car the engine does not put out full horsepower and best gas mileage as it will after 3000 to 10,000 miles, it just works. Maybe some don't experience this phenom' Okay so be it, but that would suck for sure.

Do these discussions ever serve this speaker, company, or the audiophile community with anything worthwhile accept the same group of people on one side vs. the other side especially on these products? I do believe that owners have an agenda to protect the silly accusations that this company would sell something to them that is horribly designed, and Zero realistic measurements..

And then the other group of about 4 more people that seem to be ones really wanting to jump in and simply try to have it proven to them they should even consider trying this design and why, and even if it works, must show this on paper as well and it still can't be justified? Then we still have an agenda to just sit and keep repeating the same thing 50 different ways, and then the guys can't believe it anyway? Seems rediculous for both sides at this point does it not? Go listen to music and learn for yourself, remember this stuff is just like the new HDTV's.. LCD is superior at this, Plasma that, DLP the other thing... It all has one more specific end goal, they all want to be the best technology for the best price. Think about that.

By the way I can see why people are compelled to just go at it over this stuff, too much direct personal attacks, and it keeps warrenting some kinda response, Ha I probably should not have writen this, cause now I gotta go into the crossfire!

Skuras, What is the verdict on the new amps and speakers?

Skuras, Good deal... The tubes will be liquid and more laid back, I heard atmospheres on the Druid and the tubes were very sweet, you could always get a small solid state if you want hard dynamics and really rock, there is a difference if you want more edge, cause those speakers can do it. Thanks
