Zu Audio Druid Mk 4/08 Speakers

Introduction

High sensitivity speakers have had a following amongst the proponents of low power single ended tube amplifiers for a long time.  Many of these speakers work well with these low power amps, but not necessarily with more typical amplification. Not so with these Zu audio Druids. While I am sure they still are wonderful with low power tube amps, they also deliver with more typical solid-state amplification. The Druid, made by cable and speaker manufacturer Zu Audio in Ogden, Utah, has had a cult following among many audiophiles. I was able to test the latest Mk. 4/08 version, released earlier this year.
