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

@dlcockrum 

Thanks for providing that link.  As a non Nenuphar owner I confess that I have much admiration and respect for this speaker. It seems to nail all of the criteria and parameters that I find most important, even mandatory. I remain exceedingly happy with my Coincident Total Eclipse II speakers (13 years 😊).

The Nenuphars are 1st on my list if I ever decide to change speakers. I do believe that they represent an extraordinary achievement. I completely understand your happiness and satisfaction with them. I believe they’d be a superb match with my Coincident 300b SET mono blocks with their low damping factor and zero NFB design/circuit.

Cube Audio Jazzon Speaker review by Dawid Grzyb // HiFi Knights

Jazzon Review by Dawid Grzyb of HiFi Knights

Installed the V2 drivers on Friday. I had +1.4dB of Roon DSP at 100Hz set on the V1s. I eliminated the Roon DSP before hearing the V2 drivers for the first time. The V2s definitely require a break-in period. I am hearing some of the differences as demonstrated in the Cube Audio in the V1 vs V2 youtube video. I do prefer the V2 over the V1 drivers and will go into more detail after 100 hours of burn-in. Refer to my recent review of the Farad Super 3 power supply on stereotimes.com for my complete system configuration. The V2s require more gain from my Ayon Audio S-5 preamp to power the First Watt SIT-1. My preamp volume runs from -60 to 0. I typically play music between -47 and -35 (-30 is half volume) with the V1 drivers and now I play music in the range of -39 to -32 with the V2 drivers. The V2s start to open up after about 20 hours of playing.  I think it's a big plus that I have been able to eliminate the Roon DSP 100Hz bass boost with the V2s and I anticipate being able to move the Nenuphars further away from the front wall which are currently 11" as measured from the rear of the speaker cabinet.
