Zealth Audio Loudspeakers With Crossfire Imaging

The Sound: By Adam Labarg AudioReview.com

So how did they sound with my amplifier tweaks, surprisingly damn good. What they excelled at was staging and openness. I have to completely agree with Doug, they do possess a planar like quality. On Kind of Blue by Miles Davis the saxophones that are panned into the left and right channels lacked any since of beaming like they do off so many sub $1000 speakers. The drums panned on the right didn't sound like they were coming out of box. The accompanying piano was life sized and saxophone, and Mile's trumpet in the middle sounded spatially like a planar would portray. They had life, depth, and a real wall of sound quality. The bottom end, though not as deep as one might like for a speaker with a 8" woofer, no port on these babies, was clean, tight and didn't have any booming shelf. The sound was cohesive but not in a way that you'd understand if you've never heard a planar. The level of detail was completely on pair with competitors in a sub $1000 speaker but the midrange had a vast openness to it. The Zealth's are like facing a wall of sound and being consumed by it. Complete escapism.

I had to give the speaker back before I had a chance to try them in standard mode or just as a single speaker. But if anyone has had a chance to run them in either of these fashions please use the comment box below to let us know your thoughts.

Overall I'm stunned at the marvel of these speakers and their price point. Sure at this price point there are a lot of gives and takes. But these speakers do an amazing job at casing a three dimensional stage, a balanced sound, a fair amount of detail and flesh to the music, and overall a good time listening to them. Please contact Kevin if you are interested in hearing these speakers or owning a pair yourself.

Since this Review we at Zealth Audio decided to give the customers what they want and have now installed a 3" rear port in the speakers to give you more bass then before.
