Let me introduce this with two qualifications. First, the zA2.1 is an electrostatic hybrid, so some might expect this should be posted in the Planar Asylum. I chose not to do that for two reasons, 1) they do not project like a typical dipole (the rear of the cabinet is enclosed) so other than needing an AC connection, room placement will be more similar to non-planar speakers, and 2) likely more Inmates will see a post here than on Planar Asylum and I feel these speakers deserve that exposure. Second, I'm "Mr. A" mentioned in the review who bought a pair. But I have no affiliation with the JansZen Loudspeaker Company other than being a satisfied customer. In fact, I may write my own (briefer) review here once I finish amplifier auditions/selection. My current amps are way overpowered for the Janszens. For now I'll just say that if you heard the zA2.1 at an audio show, such as Newport THE Show, you didn't experience the capability of these exceptional speakers, a point I believe David Janszen would agree with. With all that, click the link to read Roger Gordon's review. "The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing, if you can fake that you've got it made." Groucho |

Not to 30 or 35, so I'm skeptical, whatever meter it was. |
