Offered is „Vivo VS20 (Audes) Breitbandlautsprecher mit Zu Audio Fullrange“ by Zu Audio as second-hand device from the category „Standing Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 1412741658 ends on 21.11.2026 at 20:07 o'clock.
Timing matters here because this is a discontinued Zu design, so you’re buying into an older but still current-enough flavor rather than waiting for a newer replacement. At €1,500, it’s clearly ambitious versus the local used-market anchor: with recent comparable listings centered at €127, this sits well above even the €495 75th percentile, so it’s only a serious ask if this exact setup has something special going for it.
The appeal is the usual Zu pitch: high sensitivity, easy amplifier matching, lively dynamics, and a big, immediate presentation that many fullrange fans love. If the cabinets, drivers, and any original trim or packaging are genuinely clean, the upside is a distinctive speaker that can be very satisfying with modest power. At this level, though, you’d want proof of condition, any service history, and whether there are included stands, grills, or other accessories before treating it as anything more than a premium-priced buy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Zu Audio emerged in 2000 from Ogden, Utah, founded by Sean Casey, a veteran audio engineer with roots in the 1980s party scene where he honed his skills wiring speakers for maximum impact. Disillusioned by hi-fi's shift toward clinical precision over musical vitality, Casey established the company to revive the pioneering spirit of early American audio, drawing on 1930s RCA research by Harry Olson and collaborations like the Zu-Griewe acoustic loading technology co-developed with Ron Griewe. Now a family-owned enterprise in its third decade, Zu remains firmly rooted in U.S. manufacturing, embodying Casey's vision of accessible, soul-stirring sound.
The brand specializes in high-efficiency full-range loudspeakers, such as the landmark Druid launched in 2001, which pairs a single 10-inch driver with proprietary loading for crossover-free direct amplifier coupling and natural balance in modest spaces. Zu complements these with audiophile cables and select electronics, including single-ended triode-inspired amps like the AC Soul Superfly, prioritizing paper-cone drivers and physics-driven designs over multi-way complexity for dynamic, lifelike playback across genres.
Positioned as a niche boutique in the high-end market, Zu Audio commands a devoted following among audiophiles seeking bold, efficient systems that punch above their price without demanding exotic amplification. Its unconventional approach—high sensitivity, modest footprints, and unapologetic realism—sparks debate yet earns praise from outlets like Stereophile for innovation, appealing to discerning buyers who value American craftsmanship over mainstream polish.
