Zu Audio Essence

Second owner of a pair of wonderful sounding Zu Essence in an absolutely gorgeous Cobalt Blue Automotive Finish by Zu. The optional extra finish by itself was a $1200 option. These speakers are $4000 new from Zu so for $2000 you are getting a $5200 speaker. $3.2K off on a world class speaker! I will also throw in a pair of $80 Emotiva X Series speaker cables (1M) for good measure. These have full range driver with a very smooth silky ribbon tweeter that acoustically tapers off without a crossover. The result is a wonderfully open, live sound that truly disappear in your room. The color on these are a very dark blue that look black, depending on the light as they appear to change color. Paired with my Luxman L-550AII, these absolutely sing. I have owned these for nearly 5 years though they have seen relatively little use (<5 hours a week). Reason for selling is that I am moving and have a child on the way.

These speakers are in great condition and (for the moment) will be for local sale only as they weight 75 lbs each and do not have the original boxes. Please do not hesitate to e-mail if you have questions. Serious inquiries only please.
