Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure

splunders  I listen to Classical, Jazz, world music and a lot of contemporary categories including pop (but not including heavy metal, etc.).  The Nens have outperformed all previous speakers by a margin, including Shindo Petite Latours, Audio Physic Codex,Martin Logan Expression 13L and Alumine 3s.  The quality that puts them above this formidable group?  Simpy put: how alive and natural they sound.  All of this to my ears of course.  I don't feel like they favor any genre, but I do think one of their strengths is reproducing live recordings.  They are just uncanny at this, putting you in the venue with the orchestra, jazz group, or rock band, etc.  If forced to name a weakness I would say that the quality of the bass, although always solid and robust, will vary depending on amp used.  I will be testing an external woofer soon, with and without a bypass filter.  This is just to satisfy my constant audio curiosity because I can happily live with the bass I hear using my VR L2iSE.

I echo what Stephen has said and agree high quality live recordings are very satisfying. I mainly play jazz of various flavours but the Nenuphar’s also work for me with classical and rock.

@splundersCurious to hear your thoughts on the SIT3 vs Decware. I’ve been on a tube journey but if I try solid state the SIT3 is at the top of my list. 
I have the Mini’s and I concur with stephendunn about how these just sound so natural. I also love how they can sound big and dynamic at low volumes. That works well for me because I’m often awake early and like to listen to music but don’t want to wake the house. I augment the bass with subs. Had been using REL T5I’S and was really impressed how well they integrated and didn’t draw attention to themselves. I recently have been playing with a JL Audio F110 and while it certainly digs much deeper I’m still unsure if I prefer it to the pair of RELs. I’m going to take my time in figuring it out but for years I refused the idea of adding a sub to my 2-channel but now I think I couldn’t go without. Not only does it help with bass but it really helps create depth in the soundstage. 

@splunders  Can you share more about your concerns, for example any genre specific issues with your current Zu speakers - FW-3 amplifier pairing?  The types of music you listen to? Etc.  Thanks. - David.

Thanks for the responses.  Honestly, my biggest concern is they cost 15k, so I don't want to find out later they're amazing only with acoustic jazz or something, and everything else is just fine.

The music I've been listening to lately has run the gamut from old A Tribe Called Quest (hiphop), the new Billie Eilish album, Faye Webster (indie singer songwriter), Kelly Lee Owens (electronic) Darkside (um?) And Badbadnotgood (jazz). 

I've been pretty satisfied with my Zus, especially when I moved from a PrimaLuna ProLogue 5 to the SIT 3.  (I have an LTA MicroZOTL preamp, and also run a pair of Rel T5i's.)  I'd say this combo brings a lot of that "alive"-ness factor to the table, but it sounds like the Nenuphars take things to a special level, and I want that.
