| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup What's up Zu guys?Just thought I'd sum up some thoughts on the excellent Melody AN845 amplifier I was able to demo for several weeks. Its not a soupy, syrupy type affair (such as Cary 805) that has dripping vocals. The Melody has a much more moder... | |

| Dynaudio Confidence C1 Pass X250.5 worked superb on mine | |
| Magico S1 - Dynamics and Amplifier Suggestions you probably need to upgrade to larger Magicos. one review online even posts that the S1 must be down considerably in output at 32hz where they are rated. also, being sealed box going to take some getting used to vs your ported Revels. | |
| What is the best OTL out there? Einstein is another good one. | |
| Quicksilver amps an appropriate match for Wilson Sophia? Bombaywalla- the Sophia 3 was measured by JA at 88.3dbs, actually higher than its specified 87dbs. Its impedance curve doesn't look particularly demanding either.I ran my old Sophias with a BAT-VK75SE and it was a superb combo. I've never heard a ... | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Chakster- I would just wait and save for a true Druid V. | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup interesting, Spirit. i'm considering the Event 2s with speakon connectors currently. why do you consider it the weak link? i would think the opposit. | |
| 2-Way Advice: Magico S1,YG Carmal,Diablo Utopia since Andrew Jones has left TAD, I wouldn't be inclined to purchase a pair unless signficantly discounted, used. |
