SUPERFLY Performance Package

That’s right, we’re bringing back Superfly as an upgrade package, fitting as Superfly includes the attractive machined from billet and hand polished aluminum driver trim ring, tweeter lens and machined and hand finished Zu logo. (The standard Dirty Weekend Six is fitted with a machined aluminum black anodized trim ring and not the hand polished silver ring, but still features the machined and hand polished FRD center pole and tweeter lens.) The Superfly performance additions are engineered to give the DW6/Superfly noticeably improved resolution and smoothness without altering its forgiving nature and great tone. Superfly upgrade also increases connection options and functionality with the inclusion of ZuB3.

Drivers - DW6/Superfly features Grade-1 full-range drivers and tweeters. These are driver pairs that match to a very tight tolerance, both in deviation in magnitude and also in impulse response—the tighter the left/right matching the more natural and satisfying the sound-field, creating stereo best described as realistic.

Internal Cable - Mission Mk. II cable harness. Instead of standard Mission hookup wire for internal connections we make the cable harness for DW6/Superfly with the full Mission Mk. II loudspeaker cable. This triples the conducting area reducing resistance and reactive ratios improving dynamics and resolution while also improving tone. The improved sound imparted by the Mission Mk.II internal cable complements the ClarityCap MR capacitors, also part of the package.

ClarityCap MR Capacitors - ClarityCap MR capacitors are featured in the tweeter high-pass network for DW6/Superfly. These capacitors have a very natural and resolving character, improving the “at ease” quality and yet reveal more detail and nuance. Pair matched.

Expanded Connector Option - ZuB3 connection addition, absent in the standard. Use of the Mission Mk. II loudspeaker cable in DW6/Superfly imparts the utility of the ZuB3 connection, which is connected in parallel with five-way binding posts. This connection is via the silver plated Neutrik speakON NL8 barrel-type locking connector. This connection lets you get the most from the improved internal cable, reduces contact resistance over binding posts, and gives the best electrical pass-through matchup when using Zu loudspeaker cable to connect Dirty Weekend to your amp. The connection also safeguards against you getting the hot/cold out of phase, short-circuiting your amp and having the connection work loose or corrode.

Dressed to Impress - As mentioned, DW6/Superfly is fitted with our hand polished machined aluminum driver ring, tweeter lens and front-side logo.

Extra Burn-In - An extra 100 hours of club-level factory burn-in for the DW6/Superfly.
