@cal3713 Here are some of the ("electronica") artists / music I have had in rotation recently:

The Avener; Deadmau5; Egyptrixx; Armin van Buuren; Biosphere; Kraftwerk; Nightmares on Wax; The Orb; Primal Scream; Amon Tobin; Goldfrapp; Massive Attack; Robert Miles; Moby; etc.

No "weakness" to these ears. Pretty amazing, actually.

Hi folks, wondering if anyone with these Cube drivers listens to rock (e.g., Tool) or heavy electronica?

Just back from vacation. I need to catch up on the thread. : )
Great information folks.  And super useful to see the list @david_ten. 

Thanks.
Reading the WBF thread comments I don't doubt that the Wolf Von Lang SON speaker is highly impressive. I am not surprised that some listeners will prefer it to the Nenuphar. It could be better than the Nenuphar in some respects to some listeners. No doubt though that the converse is true. What single audio product is chosen by everyone and scores 10 Of 10 in every sonic parameter and lacks any critical dissenters? 

I would accept  both are quite excellent with their own sets of strengths and relative shortcomings. I've read enough comments the last 2 years to conclude  that the Nenuphars are very capable with a very broad spectrum of music genres. I don't believe that there's an existing speaker that presents every genre of music with equal aplomb at a sublime level. This isn't realistic.

@charles1dad Definitely.  Agreed.  And it's clear from that thread that even the person who changed to WvLs still loved the Nenuphars.  

Interesting thing about my possible venture to build Cube Audio based head units for my Coincident PREs is that I could switch back and forth between two high quality presentations by just swapping out the head units (and changing what amps the bass cabs are connected to).
Hi cal,
Yes, that’d be an ideal option to have. Agree, both excellent ( Cube Audio/Coincident ) but quite different head units /monitors. I read the WBF link and and related thread on reasonable sized horn speakers for modest room dimensions.
Once a high quality level of speakers is reached everyone has their particular favorite brand. Some mentioned were,
Wolf Von Lang
Viking Audio
Odeon Audio
Diesis Audio
Tobias Sound Systems
Horning Audio

I would bet each one is excellent and will appeal to different tastes. So truly impossible to say one is clearly better than the rest.
Without question Cube Audio could easily be added to this list. Not a horn speaker but one that’s suited to similar amplifier requirements.
It just depends on what sonic characteristics one is pursuing.

They will all appeal to those listeners who are in the camp of high quality lower power amplifiers paired with high quality easily driven speakers..
