Over on AudioShark I came across an interesting post about Nenuphars and the Gryphon Diablo 300:

www.audioshark.org/amplifiers-8/gryphon-diablo-300-vs-vitus-audio-sia-025-mk-ii-16909.html?h...
Yesterday my friend brought all his system to my home. He wanted to know why i m so happy with my new speakers, Cube Audio Nenuphars.
Full range, single driver, no crossover 6 ohm and 92db.

His system consists of: 
Gryphon300+dave+mscaller+n10.
PC from True Signal, SC Sablon t.o.r, IC Atlas Mavros
PC for gryphon: Sablon t.o.r.

I drive my speaker with mbl c51, 300w class D.

Guess what? Gryphon is an amazing match to these moderately sensible speakers! My friend was speechless, anticipating a bad match! I guess Gryphon, when used at low volume, throws class A only power, and that's what these babies like the most.

Diablo 300 is a Darkish sounding amp....I guess as long as you like that kind of presentation. Have ordered a pair of the Mini Nenuphar's but they wont arrive till the Fall. Completely sold out of everything except 1 pair of the Magnus is available from the distributor according to my dealer

Robert, thanks for the link.

I suggest trying some other amps mentioned in this thread as being compatible with the Nenuphar’s. My own experience is with the Bakoon 13R which I can highly recommend.

Maybe the best way to get the very best sound out these speaker drivers is to just buy these speaker drivers and put them in Cabinets made of Granite. 
You get a cabinet maker to do these granite speaker cabinets for you

On paper I don't see what would make the Gryphon Diablo a particularly good match with the Nenuphar given the specific design objective of this speaker. However as has been shown before there's no substitute for actually listening and judging.

I don't know why granite would necessarily be superior to the original Nenuphar cabinet. This is a very well thought out cabinet to match the superb driver and no doubt is a major factor in the overall sound quality.
