Cube Audio or Charney

I have owned full range single driver speakers before.  Lowther & Aer based drivers and totally enjoyed them.  I miss what they do well so I am looking at purchasing either Cube's  8" or 10" speaker or Charney's 6" or 8" Voxativ speaker.  I have not heard either one and probably won't have the opportunity to listen before a purchase.  Anyone hear both or either speaker?  Any feedback would be helpful.

I have heard both the Charney w/ Voxativ-AC2.8 and the new Cube Audio.  Without a doubt the Charney is superior.  Good clean SET power is needed to get the most out of either.

Do people still own and love their Charmey speakers? I live about 50 minutes away.

Cube audio Sounds fantastic but need a SET amps with allot of grunt to drive the 10 inch harder.  Speaker Placement is critical on these drivers.

i compared Vox cube Lowther & Aer

Cubes need more power to get the cone moving and overall the bass was better on the cube compared to the above 3 as mentioned.

Speaker Placement, Cables, Amps, Pre-amps all make a difference. To my Ears Cube was an overall better speaker to live with you can throw anything at them and it just does not break down in complex music.
