Title: Torii with Zu Essence?
Post by TubeNube on 05/15/13 at 23:46:48

I have a Torii, and a pair of Zu Essence with 16 ohm impedance. I would REALLY like to try this combo, but I'm afraid of damaging either the amp or the speakers. If I used the Torii on the 8 ohm setting with the Zu's, would it just be a matter of not having the volume or "hit" that the amp would have with 4 or 8 ohm speakers? Or would the outcome be something too awful to contemplate?

Any help?

That combo will sound great. I have 16 ohm Superfly's and ordered my Torii with 8 and 16 ohm taps. Sounds great on both 8 ohm and 16 ohm.

I have the Torii 3 with Zu Essence and absolutely love it. I bought Decware based on a recommendation by Sean Casey with Zu and he was spot on. My Torii has 4 and 8 ohm outputs. The Essence is a very easy load for the Torii. Spend some time experimenting with the bass and treble controls (all the controls for that matter) to dial in the performance to your liking.
