Title: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by mark58 on 03/27/15 at 00:05:59 I've been watching this auction on ebay for several days.  I was thinking about putting in a bid if they stayed below a grand...it hit $1025...with a little more than a day to go.  These have a custom paint job that probably cost an extra grand.  It doesn't sound like they've been broken in yet.  Remember they now retail for $2000 with a standard finish.  Anyway,  if anyone is interested, the link's below.  Mark. PS...I forgot to mention, there is also a nearly new SE84CKCS on auction as well.  The starting bid is a little high.  This combo would be the Bomb. http://www.ebay.com/itm/151626330859?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT http://www.ebay.com/itm/111626642779?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by Lonely Raven on 03/27/15 at 17:26:15 LOL - I've been watching those as well. nice looking speakers for a stylish living room or listening room.

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by beowulf on 03/27/15 at 21:51:56 They look so "mid-century" in that color ... I could see these fitting right in with my home decor/living room. 8-)

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by Lonely Raven on 03/28/15 at 02:56:58 I thought of your living room as soon as I saw them honestly. I've got a guitar or two in a similiar color -  it's a 1960 Daphne Blue Strat. The speakers look like they have a hint more green to them which might make them a bit more seafoam or surf.

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by Lon on 03/28/15 at 12:23:19 Looks like a different color than Daphne, Seafoam or Surf, but it's hard to tell from pics. Interesting color, but not sure I'm ready for that color on speakers! I'm traditional with stereo stuff. Bet they sound good.

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by Lonely Raven on 03/28/15 at 13:50:37 Yeah, agree. Assuming those photos are color correct (which they probably aren't), they don't quite match up. I thought I read Zu uses automotive paints, and Fender used their own versions of the automotive paints in the late '50s and early '60s guitars. I think there were about 5 different colors copped from the Fords and Chevys of the day. Ahh, that's it! I have a guitar in Daphne Blue, and the other color is Sonic blue. I really love these colors. I'm not sure they'd work on speakers for me - but I appreciate that these speakers can pull them off!

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by Syd on 03/28/15 at 13:50:48 'Robin Egg Blue' is a shade of Cyan that is 100% saturated and 80% bright. For reference purposes, Robin Egg Blue has the hex value #00CCCC.

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by Lonely Raven on 03/28/15 at 13:52:11 Yeah, that nailed it.

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by Syd on 03/28/15 at 13:56:27 Airline guitars get close with the colour.

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by mark58 on 03/28/15 at 14:00:01 I just checked,  those speakers went for $1200...a bargain. I'm feeling a bit regretful for not placing a bid.  There would have been no shipping since I live in the Dallas area.  Oh well, why would I "need" another pair?  Mark. http://www.ebay.com/itm/111626642779?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by Lonely Raven on 03/29/15 at 15:48:03 You're already pretty well setup, Mark. *More* doesn't mean better.  :)

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by mark58 on 04/03/15 at 02:20:48 Hey Boys,  look what popped up on ebay again.  Mark. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Zu-Audio-Soul-Tower-Speaker-pair-USA-Made-Custom-Paint-HIFI-Speakers-/111636206941?

Title: Re: FS...Baby Blue Zu Audi Soul speakers Post by Lonely Raven on 04/03/15 at 14:03:06 Yeah, I got an alert from eBay that they were relisted. I dropped a bid of $444 on them (just for grins) and was quickly outbid.
