Guestbook

After having had a bad experience with a high-end hi-fi store in Munich (I might have been treated like a potential customer if I had worn a suit and pinned my payslip to my lapel) and numerous reports on the Internet praising Nubert, I decided to make the perhaps not entirely obvious journey from Munich to Aalen.
I arrived on Saturday without an appointment and was nevertheless immediately welcomed in a very friendly manner, offered a recording studio by a charming young employee (along with a coffee offer), and I was able to test-listen for as long as I wanted. Another colleague (I hope I'm allowed to mention his name: Mr. Schneider) was incredibly friendly and gave me very good and honest advice, and not just based on my experience in Munich. I can't remember the last time I experienced something like that - no matter how much money was involved.
The result: Nuline 284, even though I had actually wanted to spend less money. Well, this concept works for buyers like me: If you feel very well and honestly advised (almost "looked after") (e.g. the honest recommendation to do without expensive speaker cables), you are more willing to exceed your financial limit.
I haven't regretted the purchase, by the way: very stylish, perfectly finished speakers that are also forgiving of suboptimal setups. The sound blew me away - and that's certainly the most important thing - and still does.
I can only hope that the Nubert company can remain true to its unusual business idea of providing customers with friendly and courteous advice and producing speakers with a very good price-performance ratio.

Oh man ... I'm eagerly waiting for my boxes ... my ears are already looking forward to it ... :-) 😂

I recently ordered 2 x Nubox 681s from you and am really impressed!

BUT

I do have 2 points of criticism. Criticism no. 1 (although you are actually less to blame) is the supplier!

A brief history of this: !!! 2!!! UPS drivers came with the boxes, unfortunately I wasn't at home so I couldn't accept them, but my roommate did. The UPS drivers didn't think it was necessary to take the boxes upstairs, they just went upstairs, got the signature and left again. When my flatmate asked what happened to the boxes, all he got was "they'll have to do it themselves". The boxes then stood in the hallway all day (my flatmate would never have brought them up to the 3rd floor on his own)!!! I was quite angry when I heard this, but as I said, you can't help it. I think it's normal to feel uneasy when there are 1000 ? in the hallway, which theoretically anyone can get into.

Criticism no. 2 is the cables supplied. I know they're only emergency cables, but that's what bothers me. At a price of just under 500 ? per box, you could actually expect proper cables to be included.


Apart from that, the speakers are really great! Clear sound from the tweeters, rich bass and very good workmanship. And the walnut color also looks very classy!
They're really good speakers and I'm glad I got some from Nubert! 🙂

I don't want a long blah blah, conclusion after 1 1/2 years: I haven't regretted a single cent! I use Nuvero 11 and Nuvero 7 as a center. I'm still thinking about the rear. The speakers are simply brilliant, with clean resolution and dynamic bass. Visitors can't believe their ears when you send 200 W of sine wave to the Nuvero 11 and how they thump. A friend of mine just shakes his head and says: "Like in a disco

Now I'm gobsmacked:

Mid 2012 ? 2x NuBox 311 ? Delivery time 31 hours, that was great tennis.
January 2013 ? 1x AW 441 ? Delivery in an incredible 26 hours, beats the whole thing by far.

Admittedly: It was in stock in each case and there are certainly still the smaller boxes in the nubert warehouse and yet: Even picking it up by hand would hardly have been faster given the distance.

Bravo and many thanks for that!

In terms of sound, I can agree with many of the previous speakers: The 311 alone is brilliant, these things just sound good and that from light background music to party volume.
Now with the AW 441 (very, very quiet and cut off at 80 Hz, I'm a convinced bass hater ☺😉 you can literally hear how the 311s are relieved at the bottom. There's a whole scoop on top of that.

We're increasingly leaving the TV off in favor of the CD collection. ☺

Continued...

While tidying up, I found the .... felt stickers from you among the supplied speaker cables... Great! So you've thought of that too...

The only thing to note is that the black piano lacquer of the speakers was very dusty and perhaps a protective film would be advisable here?

And if the speaker cover is not used, then you can't see the Nubert brand logo! You certainly don't have to hide! Could you perhaps send me two more small ones? Thanks again to everyone and keep up the good work!

Well, dear Nubert team... Now I have my nuBox681. It was a very long process. I saw these speakers for the first time at a friend's house and first of all I just fell in love with the design. In my opinion, the speakers would be worth buying even if they didn't sound good...

Then I listened to them with his taste in music. But his taste and his positioning of the speakers don't suit either the speakers or my taste. But you could already tell that there was a lot of potential in these speakers. Then I brought my music with me and listened to it and, despite the asynchronous set-up, I was thrilled and realized that I wanted these 'parts' too!

That was a few years ago now and something financial always got in the way of my purchase and somehow I was also attached to my old self-built speakers from 1991 until our daughter was born and at the tender age of 2 she gave the mid-range speaker a bruise with her fingers (I had no protective cover)... After a long search, I ordered a new one, which then suffered the same fate a month later...

And now I saw my crumpled box every day... Was that a sign??? :-)

YES!

So now I have carefully contacted Nubert. Maybe they are really unsympathetic people and then I would at least have a reason not to order one after all... But unfortunately they are also very nice and cooperative. Crap!

So the speakers look very good, they sound very good and the Nubert team seems to be made up of nice people. What's the catch?

So I ordered and everything went smoothly. Boxes were delivered in perfect condition. One box weighed 41 kg. Poor UPS man. My wife wasn't at home when he put them on the doorstep. I was determined to get the boxes into the warmth but failed because my wife was only 16 kg heavier than a box. I quickly went home at lunchtime and helped. After all, it was below zero! Oh yes, the fact that the box weighed 32 kg was also a not insignificant purchasing factor! And so the Nubis spent a day acclimatizing in the study...

Yesterday was the big day. Wife at work and the little one at kindergarten. There are things that a man can only do alone! Putting up boxes is one of them! There were boxes on the floor. They were opened straight away, but how do I get the speakers out of there in a way that's easy on the spine? I set up the box, pulled it out and then placed it on the furniture castor plate. The cables are about to fall around my ears. I don't need it... and put it away. I pushed the box into the living room and inspected it...It was beautiful the way it lay there...almost erotic. Metal speaker feet are included. I didn't want to use my old spikes because they wouldn't allow it to slide around on the floor.

Oh well. Nubert probably didn't think about the fact that you can put felt on the feet. I quickly went to the storeroom and grabbed my beloved felt carpet tiles, glued the legs to them and cut them out round. Perfect. Screwed it into place and positioned the beast and the other one too.... and then straight onto the couch and just let it work silently...The scene somehow reminded me of Stanley Kubrick's Odyssey in Space with the black monolith.... :-) I now had two of them....and felt just like those early humans...

I'll spare you the disassembly of the old boxes and the astonishment at the huge amounts of dust back there.

So I connected the new ones to the cables and switched on the amplifier...and then put in a CD...and first of all very quietly...does anything hum, crack or hiss? No...just quiet music...

Now let's put all the 'garbage' in the garage... and get the dust sour out... The eye can hear too!

So...and now onto the couch and listen and listen and listen...It often made my hair stand on end how close and real the voice sounds and how dry and crisp the bass is. If I only had a pleasant bass with my Canton AS50 with my old ones, I could do without it with the Nubis. So it was superfluous for music...

But as has often been described, the speakers really expose badly mixed music straight away and unfortunately there's a lot of that! Got stuck with Patricia Kaas, Norah Jones, Joss Stone and (God rest her soul) Amy. Goosebumps...and so I almost missed picking up my little one from kindergarten...

After that, things got a bit heavier and Yes, Savatage and Queensrÿche were allowed to play...

Great! I was always worried about the bass, which is so important to me, and because the Nubis only go up to 44 Hz. But the listening experience clearly says otherwise! I was and am completely satisfied. This purchase has made me really happy all round! Thanks to Nubert.

To be continued...

I'm simply amazed at the sound coming out of the Nuveros. I'm in the process of switching everything over to Nuvero. I'm currently using Nuvero 4 and Nuvero 7 without a sub, and the sound density in the room is simply amazing. It's really amazing what kind of sound the Nuvero 4 produces. What I particularly like is that the sound comes from a single source, the sound comes from a speaker that deserves to be called a speaker. The deep bass makes me happy every time!!! I operate the system with a Yamaha RX-V3067. It masters home theater and music playback really great, lots of dynamics and power, enough power for the Nuveros. I have to say, the Nuvero 7 really is a bomb, the ultra-deep bass is enormous. The loudspeaker can handle the volume - it's simply amazing!!! I used to have other manufacturers here but they could never hold a candle to it. Thank you Mr. Nubert for building honest loudspeakers.
I must have calibrated my system 30 times and have already noticed the difference between it and its predecessors.

Dear Nubert Team, Mr. Nubert,

Despite all the euphoria that is being expressed about your products - and rightly so, by the way - I would like to point out one thing that has been overlooked in recent years due to the general enthusiasm.

The first years of the product's life were almost completely ignored by the relevant trade journals. For a long time, Nubert was an insider tip among discerning hi-fi listeners. At the time, I wondered when the first tests would appear because I couldn't understand why such high-quality products weren't noticed.

This has changed drastically in recent years. Suddenly, media interest was aroused and the hymns of praise continued unabated. As a result - as I personally see it - Nubert loudspeakers have gradually moved into a completely different price category. Today, the phrase "cheap and good" no longer applies to me.

Well, you cut out the middleman, but this is no longer reflected in the prices. I don't want to name names, but comparable products today cost no more than Nubert products, even with a middleman.

Is it because of the hype that has been generated in recent years? In any case, there has been a quantum leap in terms of price.

I wanted to say a BIG word of praise for the Nubert service and the nice ladies on the phone, who do everything they can to make the customer feel like a customer.

Small parts are included as a matter of course when reordering grilles, for example (where other customer services charge outrageous flat rates for small parts!)

Thank you and keep up the good work as an oasis in the service desert that is Germany
