I'm excited too... now just wait for the trucking company to deliver... painful!  Will report back.
Srajan Ebaen’s / Six Moons Nenuphar Mini Basis review is nearing completion.

Given the recent discussion, Page 6 may be useful to those using / considering SIT amps.

Page 7 offers an insightful comparison between the Mini Basis and the Nenuphar.

Page 8 adds a bit more on amps and choices, specifically the tradeoffs between Bakoon and SIT.

Nenuphar 8 or 10

These speakers really intrigue me. I hope to hear them at Axpona. David and other owners, would you say these these speakers are fussy or finicky of the recording quality? Do they make average to below average sounding recordings sound less enjoyable or possibly bad? I realize most all good speakers reveal the source, but I am wondering if the incredible resolution somehow heightens this reality making it more fussy?

Secondly, does this speaker have good mid bass response avoiding the tendency to sound lean or thin at times? I assume closer placement to the wall behind them would help develop this mid bass body.
@david_ten Thanks for posting!  Interesting that he comes to a different conclusion about preferring the 10" driver over the 8" (vs. Jon @ Refined Audio and some of the posters here).
I would be pairing the Nenuphar with a Class A Clayton Audio S40  SS amp with current upgrades. The Audiophile’s Wife approves the aesthetics of the Nenuphar.  Most important!
