For sale, Acoustic Zen
Adagio speakers. 

The design with a tweeter
between the bigger drivers, although not new, seems to be back in vogue. See
the latest designs by Zu and Focal, for example. It also seems that a bit more
sophistication is added with an the two wide range drivers at an angle.

The design is also said to
be tube friendly, since impedance remains quite stable. I don't have high power
tube amps, but to my surprise I had good results driving these speakers with a
6wpch and a 2 wpch amp (Yamamoto with 45s output tubes). This is against all
the rules, but it was actually my preferred setting. Not loud, of course.
Acoustic Zen recommends 50 wpch, though.

I no longer have space for
floorstanding speakers and hence the sale. Keeping the same amp and the rest of
this set up but using single driver monitors that will probably have to be
placed above the new furniture.

The look great but they
have a couple of cosmetic imperfections (you can see them in the pics). No
issues in terms of how they work.  Those are only actually two marks on
one side of one speaker that I can think of now. Speakers already boxed so I can't
hunt for any other scratch. Finish of the speakers is outstanding. As rigid as
I've seen any piece of furnishing, and the color and coating are also very
nice. These are pearl, some sort of metallic gray with a glossy translucent
coating on top. Reflections are sharp as you may see in the pics.

Spikes and original
packaging included. Shipping can be expensive as they are heavy, so count
around $200 for that (I will charge actual price, insured). They will travel
inside a "sock", in factory double boxes. I can't see how shipping
can go wrong, but they will go insured in any case. I have a pdf copy of the
owner's manual that I will share as it has useful information for unpacking and
placement. 

Let me know if you have
any questions. I travel often so I may not be able to respond immediately, but
I will do my best.

Thanks for looking.

Questions for the seller
Hi! Question: How old are these? And do you have the serial numbers? I can use those to determine age if you don't know.
Hi; thanks for your interest. Serial number: AZ 0563A, AZ0563B. I included two pics (unfortunately I can´t rotate them, as with the rest of the pics). I am not sure how old they are unfortunately. I bought them a year ago here on Audiogon.
Hello - you stated the recommended minimum wattage @50wpc. What is the max watt handling capacity? What color are these speakers? In some pics they look grey and others they look blue and cherry. Thank you
Hi. The manual says power handling to be 50-200 watts. As for color, they are "pearl" gray. The shapes and other colors you see in the pics are just reflections.
