The Omen Bookshelf is designed for those of us who need speakers on a shelf, but still insist on great sound. Omen bookshelf offers a similar level of performance as the floor-standing Omen but with a little less in the bottom end.
Omen Bookshelf delivers on the performance, all that Zu driver goodness and machined aluminum suggests. Our objective for the Omen series is simple, create and build loudspeakers that sound amazing, are happy with the majority of amps, with great looks, and at a price that lets every working music head on Earth afford them.
Omen Bookshelf is built to last a lifetime: cabinet material, adhesives, driver assemblies; every component is a quality part, creating a loudspeaker system that will continually satisfy and amaze, decade after decade.
Omen Bookshelf, like all Zu products, is built around the critical human voice (A1, 55Hz, through A6 and all the possible harmonics, to approximately 10kHz). Serving this critical region of tone is Zu's 4th generation (standard motor) 10" [26cm] paper coned full-range driver. And despite what many audio snobs might think about it based on price or it's trad' old school look, Omen bookshelf is a true, state-of-the-art loudspeaker housed in a sealed cabinet design. The core of its performance is Zu's proven 10" [26cm] full-range driver, with the addition of the high frequency diffusion detail in the face of the pole piece extension. This "phase plug" is a carry over from the research and testing we did with Essence, which gives all Zu Omen loudspeakers a more linear management of high frequencies and broader dispersion from the directly coupled to voice coil inner cone.
Colors & Finish
Zu Omen Bookshelf is hand finished using a dye over real maple technique for a deep rich three dimensional look. The competition at this price looks awful, like some kinda vinyl wrap impressed with wood grain - not Omen. They look stunning! The three standard finishes are:
Ghost Black
Honey Walnut
Sangria Red
