Really interesting stuff. My omega 4.5” single drivers - cones w/surrounds weigh in at 1.5 grams. Not sure how that compares to the Nenuphars, but I imagine they are also extremely light. Whenever I audition an amp with a higher dampening, it seems to restrain the lightweight driver.
I just purchased a dht 45 set, which I am super excited to hear with my speakers.
would love to hear the Nenuphars one day. When I listen to quality speakers with crossovers, I can’t get back to those full range efficient speaks quick enough 😉
Omega makes great speakers and Louis is great to talk to.
Also has worst service I have ever had in 50 years in audio.
^ They certainly take a long time to deliver. Hopefully I won’t have any service needs. Do love the way they sound! 
Another full range speaker company getting ravs is the Lii Audio. The 15 and the best 10 inch drivers are 97-99db sensitive....made quite well. People on the Decware forum are going crazy over them. Just talked to a friend who likes his Lii F-15s better than his quad amped crazy system. You can get a pair of the F-15s for $400 plus shipping. The best 10 incher is $1000 a pair plus shipping and you can get the 10 inchers delivered to your home for $3K in serious speaker cabinets that let them play down to 30Hz. Are these as good as the Cubes? I hope not considering the price difference.....but, what if they are 90% as good? No Lowther shout....no peakiness has been reported. Of course, they need the usual several hundred hours of break in. According to those that have heard the 10 and the 15....the 10 is more articulate but the 15 is more fun to listen to (more balls).

You could mount a 15 and a 10 on an open baffle and put a coil on the 15 and a cap on the 10 so they are crossed over around 3-4 hundred cycles and you would get the balls of the big one and the more articulation of the smaller one and still the whole shebang is 97+db efficient. A single stack of great caps in series with the 10 would not limit their sound (you know Clarity cap CMRs bypassed by copper foils or better). Another way to run these two would be to use a tube amp on the 10 that has a very small coupling cap in it......That way you have a natural roll off of bass.....and you have a less expensive super sounding cap in the amp. This way you have zero xover again on the 10 incher.  Then run another amp on the woofs. Pretty cool stuff.
Ricevs,

I have followed F-15's development on the Decware forum and it does seem like everyone has raved about the sound and the quality of the 10" and 15" driver.  Their prices are more than reasonable and worth a strong consideration.
