Non-fatiguing over hours of extended listening. The 9Ks simply suit my preferences better with zero congestion, which is something I hear just a bit of with the Zu's (but, I also hear something similar with Harbeth 30.2s, which others do not). And, surprising to me, the 9Ks play more evenly at the lower listening levels (<80db) that I prefer.

I could live with the Zu's. But, lucky for me, as I have the Canton Ref 9Ks, I do not have to.
