I did get a chance to hear them, shortly after they first came out in the UK. That was in exhibition surroundings, however, so make of that what you will. I was struck by how much more enjoyable their presentation was (to me) over the larger Avantgarde arrays, and at the time, I put this down to their coincident driver arrangement.My experience with single-driver designs has probably shaped my expectations in this space, but there seems to be an undeniable gain to be had - to my ears - by considering driver integration as part of the playback system. Obviously not the only consideration, but a crucial one for me, in terms of value as one spends more.
Hopefully, the modular nature of the Zero will allow for some development, or perhaps a Mark 2 or additional offering in this line. There are R-2R DACs being produced now (like Metrum's Transient DAC, for example, or that offered by Soekris) that might suit an implementation here. Or perhaps the BB PCM4104 integration is too integral to the design to be changed. Don't know.
