Audience PowerChord, Zen Tsunami, AP Oval 10

I have never heard the AZ speakers so I don't know how their bass output is. You might double-check your room placement of the speakers. Sometimes, speakers in the wrong location can cause a bass "suck-out". Electronics, as well as your cabling also play a role in the bass performance. The AP cables do have good bass, but in my system the bass was a little too boomy sounding while the Satori were better balanced for me. I also recall reading in these Audiogon threads that the Adagios require a few hundred hours for the bass drivers to loosen up, so give them some more time, if necessary. The owner/designer of AZ, Robert Lee, 858-487-1988, will take phone calls and gladly answer your questions about his products. If you bought a new Tsunami, allow at least 150 hours of break-in before you do any semi-serious listening.

Thanks Sherod.. I haven't gotten the oval 9 or Tsunami
yet (ordered) but they will be new and in need of break in
as well..

Have you considered that the lean bass you hear is a matter of the Adagios being a poor match with your electronics? If that's the case, the AP 9's aren't going to make the difference in bass you are seeking. Please let us know of your results.

Ive tried all of them.The audience is more superior than
the oval and tsunami pc.IMS the audience has better bass,
clarity,sounstage,transient,and the transparency is where
it shine most,the oval and tsunami they did both sounded
veil IMS.I would say the audience in on onother league.
