I had ordered the 681s to replace the 'old' 400s in the front section of my Nubox 6.1 system.
In blind 'infatuation', so to speak 😉
The 400s had always been sufficiently precise (I thought), sufficiently powerful (I thought) and sufficiently level-resistant for me (and my guests).
I was quite hopeful about the performance of the 'new ones', but my expectations were exceeded in every respect.
The system sounds completely NEW. The 400s in the surround range do their bit, of course...
But first things first: First an audiophile CD. Finely resolved, airy and with a strong attack. Then an effect-laden SACD. A sound experience that left listeners open-mouthed.
Finally, the sound highlights from 'The Fifth Element' in DTS.
I have shocked guest 'listeners' with this before. But this time I flinched on the couch myself. A thunderstorm in the living room! The house (built in '54) shook to its foundations. I needed a break after that. No kidding.
I've always been satisfied with Nubert's service and performance. Now I'm completely thrilled. I will need a long time to explore the potential of the speakers.
Thank you very much.

Dear Nubis,
I am delighted that during my weeks-long loudspeaker purchasing phase I came across a forum contributor somewhere who mentioned the name "Nubert".
After hours of reading in the NuForum, a pre-selection (which unfortunately had to match my budget - lechz for NuLine...) and a call to the very friendly NSF hotline, I decided on the "nuBox-681-Set 2". Ordered Friday - delivered Monday!
After setting up my Onkyo 875, my impressions of lugging around 130 kg suddenly gave way to enthusiasm. I've been sitting in front of the 681s for hours and listening to music in stereo - something that was previously unthinkable for me as a surround sound fan!
The 681s are fun at any volume - the cat has now found another place to sleep - and the AW-991 scared me straight away when I tested the bass (I'm still a bit nauseous and dizzy) 😱 😬
I'm already looking forward to the delivery of the rear speakers. Then I can start watching movies.
I definitely don't regret the purchase and fear that the speakers won't see their creator again 😉
Best regards from Austria

Well, what can I say, I've been a proud owner of Nubert speakers for several years now and I'm still very enthusiastic about the sound of the Nu310 and the ORDENTAL bass of the AW-850.

Dear Mr. Nubert, dear NSF,
You have a problem: although I've only been using my two NuWave 85 Terracotta for a few days, I can already tell you that you won't be seeing this pair of speakers again. 😬 I have secured them because they are highly addictive, which is of course dangerous for music lovers.
Seriously: I've had a lot of speakers, even far more expensive ones, and I'm also familiar with various high-end exotics. But everything is just right here, especially for the price. It's a shame that the NW 85 doesn't have a direct NuVero successor.
Now I finally understand why "Nubi" has such a big grin on its face. 😂 The description "honest speakers" really sums it up.

For a long time I was looking for a decent subwoofer and after a lot of wrangling (because of the price) I decided on the Nubert AW-441.
For cost reasons, I opted for the 2nd choice version and when the good piece arrived, I was amazed, because the only "damage" was a 0.1mm deep indentation on the back - so invisible from > 10cm away and just on the back...
The sub itself is a blast - pressure without end and a nice, deep bass.
However, I had to send it back after 3 days because I didn't want to get into trouble with the neighbors.
At first I was of course very disappointed, but after a few days I bought a set of Nubert nuBox 481 floorstanding speakers because of my enthusiasm.
I have not regretted it...! Of course, the two speakers don't create the bass pressure that a real sub can, but they sound simply impressive!
In my opinion, there is no comparison between a sub+satellite and a floorstanding speaker - the floorstanding speaker sounds rounder and simply better! Huge praise to Nubert for these great speakers and the reasonable price! Great!
I will probably buy the ABL module soon, depending on my financial possibilities...
My conclusion: If you want great speakers at a reasonable price, the nuBox 481 is the perfect choice!!!
Nubert Team: Keep it up!!!!

Hello
A year ago, I didn't get any new boxes as a birthday present from my wife. No, it doesn't happen that quickly. On that day, I had taken (or was allowed to take) a vacation to spend a few hours at Nubert in S-Gmünd in peace and without time pressure. After a good hour's drive, I arrived at Nubert, had a listening studio just for myself and was given very friendly and informative advice by Mr. Reichelt. Thank you at this point. If anything, it should have been new compacts, but the good advice and the fact that our not exactly small living room required powerful transducers meant that I had to do some convincing again. And I was successful, because two months later they arrived: 2xNuBox 681!!! Ordered by phone at noon and delivered the next day at half past nine. The CS-411 was added later. I'm not quite finished yet, but I'm definitely very, very satisfied.
Thank you and best wishes to the whole Nubert team 😉 😉

Hello everyone
I ordered 1 pair of nuline 32 about 4 weeks ago and I am completely thrilled, they sound great on my tube power amplifier.
The resolution is gigantic.
I've never heard speakers that produce such a sound.
Simply fantastic. I'm now listening to all my CDs and hearing new sounds. I've had hi-fi as a hobby for 40 years and I wonder how you can get such a sound. Simply awesome
Best regards

Hello everyone!
Well - that's how it can go. I recently ordered the NuWave CS-65 because it was just on sale and is supposed to play a bit more directly than the NuLine series. I also like to have things that won't be available later. The original idea was: compact LS as a stereo pair. When my order arrived super fast - as usual from Nubert - I was a bit skeptical about the look after unpacking.
But when everything was finally wired up and the 65s were placed on the BS-80s and aligned, I was happy.
😂 😂 😂 .
I'm really glad I placed this order.
Yes, and about the look - I don't think it's so bad anymore, especially as the workmanship itself is really impeccable.
I've probably gotten used to it.
Thank you dear Nubert team for sending me such treasures!
Best regards from Hesse!

I'm still delighted with my purchase of the AW 991 (it's been a few months). The sound, this fullness exceeded my expectations. A rich, deep, clear bass!

Hello
I am a future Nubertian. I'm actually planning to buy Nubert speakers in January 2009. Since my wife and I recently traveled from Switzerland to Germany, we made the small detour to Schwäbisch Gmünd to finally hear Nubert loudspeakers (I've already read a lot). It was brilliant. We were given very friendly and competent advice by the "intern", Mr. Wollsiefen. We spent a total of 3 hours in various listening and viewing rooms and were able to listen to/watch the CDs and DVDs we had brought with us.
We are interested in a nuLine surround set. If you only read on the Internet or study test reports, then you can easily come to the conclusion that the nuLine 32 or 82 or 102 'should' be enough. A surround set would be so ?affordable?! But when we made the comparison with the nuLine 122, our eyes immediately lit up. We are not interested in volume. But the way the music detached itself from the loudspeakers and ?embraced? us was brilliant. Now it 'has' to be the 122, and we are starting in stereo. We were also able to hear the new big nu??? in comparison. It was certainly first class and sounded very detailed, but it was simply beyond our budget. The nuLine 122 was the most emotionally gripping.
We were then able to enjoy the complete set with our planned nuLine CS 72, DS22, and AW 1000 in the video studio. WOW! During the destruction of the warship in Pirates of the Caribbean on Blu-Ray, it was as if we were right in the middle of it. When Mr. Wollsiefen then brought first one and then two AW 1500s into action instead of the AW 1000 "just to compare what else is possible", it was as if we ourselves were being "destroyed". My trouser legs were actually moving. I had never experienced anything like it.
So my tip: If at all possible, go to Nubert and compare, or simply order the nuLine 122 and slowly expand the system. My wife was just as enthusiastic and found them very aesthetically pleasing in white. Many thanks to Mr. Wollsiefen for his patient and enthusiastic support. We will definitely be coming to Switzerland in January to get the 122s (better than sending them because of customs).
