For me, the two week downtime (which is mainly due to shipping the drivers back and forth) is about as reasonable as it gets.
 

@david_ten yes, I agree. It’s quiet a reasonable time give the situation we are all in. However, since Covid many of us are WFH and enjoys listening more than ever :-)

I spoke with Jon yesterday. He should have his ears on the new drivers soon and will be able to provide his feedback on differences, etc.
 

please keep us posted. I am also very interested in knowing how well it behaves with a low power amps.

Thanks @david_ten

I bet that configuration sounds utterly fantastic! Tonal/musical finesse and emotionally engagement achievable at lower listening levels? Not easy to do. I’d choose this attribute by a factor of 10 compared to loud volume and bass "slam" abilities.

This must be my place. Like someone said before, I asked on other forums about this speakers and few answers and enthusiasm… 

I’m really interested in this speakers. Good comments from all around. Srajan and Peter talked about something really special (Mr. Breuninger said that the importance of this speaker it’s equal to the famous Quad’s… That’s a lot!!!).

I have not been able to listen yet to the Nenuphars. Some questions. Let’s hope you can help me:

1) I hear a lot of rock. Do the Nenuphar’s rock?? It is said that if you place the Nenuphar’s near the wall there is a bass improvement but it’s enough?? Are they capable with rock music??

2) Sorry to the OP if I stray from the main topic but I must ask it. Magico A5 (“giant killer”), Von Schweikert Endeavor SE, Rockport Atria II… I know that they are a different designs, but is the Nenuphar at the level??

3) I’m a little bit confused between the new Audio Cube Jazzon and the Nenuphar. Aren’t they both 10” drivers??

4) I’m also worried about the performance of the new Nenuphar V2. Is less efficient than the V1??

5) What about the launch of the new Cube Audio F15 Neo with 15”. Any information?? What we can expect??

Sorry for my horrible english. Thanks so much and sorry to the OP if I stray a little bit.
