Hello Nubert team! A few weeks ago I bought the Yamaha Pianocraft E-200 system for my study. The speakers that came with it sounded quite good. It was clear to me from the start that I would sell the standard speakers and replace them with the nuBox 310. With its aluminum front, the nuBox 310 matches the silver Pianocraft perfectly. The dynamic and crisp, fresh sound of the Pianocraft drives the excellent nuBox 310 to peak sonic performance. I'm always amazed at how this pairing really ups the fun factor for me, it's incredible. The highs and mids are very differentiated and clean, certainly also a result of the linear tuning. The bass is absolutely satisfactory for this size. Finally, I would like to make a recommendation: When you get the speakers delivered and plug them in, don't expect miracles. The speakers definitely need a break-in period of approx. 40 to 60 hours !!!! (I left the system running at a low level almost around the clock for a few days. Only then do the speakers (or the components) play at the highest level. So be patient and don't send them back straight away. Many thanks to the Nubert team, especially this time to Ms. Iris Bücheler! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2003, with kind regards from Juergen Gammer

Dear ladies and gentlemen of the Nubert team, after a certain waiting period I would like to inform you about the results of my listening comparison of the Nuline 100 with ABL module against the Martin Logan Aerius i. The interesting thing about this comparison is not only the big difference in the new price (Martin Logan 1999: approx. 6000-7000 DM, depending on the dollar exchange rate), but also being able to compare different systems (Logan: hybrid electrostat/Nubert: dynamic LS) in the comfort of your own home. Since Nubert's advertising promises that Nubert speakers are on a par with or even superior to much more expensive transducers, it was particularly important to me to find out whether the sound reality lives up to the promises. Having listened to the Logans for years, I initially found the Nubert sound to be shockingly different, above all much more restless and brighter. However, my assessment changed over time. During the first hour, you could still hear the coldness of the transportation. Even after a warm-up period, it became clear that the Nuline should be given about 15-20 hours of break-in time and that we should be careful about judging them too quickly. This was followed by intensive listening sessions, during which the following characteristics emerged, partly through conversations with family members and friends: 1. low bass: while the Logans gave a hint of real low bass, the Nubert's bass was frighteningly deep and tangible, without being boomy. 2. lower mids: both the Nuline 100 and the Aerius i can resolve this frequency range very openly and naturally. Compared to the electrostats, I found the Nuline 100 lacked the warmth and volume with which the Aerius i caresses the listener with baritone voices or cello solos. To be honest, however, it has to be said that this speaker has a certain frequency response curvature in this range according to stereophile. The tonally homogeneous transition between the lower mids and basses is particularly successful with the electrostats. In any case, you can also get used to the somewhat more neutral sound of the Nuline 100 in this area. But does the NuWave 125 sound even more voluminous here? 3. upper mids The Logan's strength of being able to place solo voices in the room in front of the speakers with the right timbres is almost matched by the Nuline 100, but the Logan sacrifices this ability with material that is difficult to resolve (mixed choir with a full Renaissance orchestra with a strong reverb) with a certain density in the sound image that makes it difficult, for example, to distinguish between female voices and violins played in unison. This is where the Nubert really comes into its own: resolution and attention to detail are its great strengths. 4. treble The attention to detail, clarity and airiness of the Nuline 100 is extremely fascinating, which is of course particularly noticeable in the treble range. It was able to pass on the wealth of information contained in a well-recorded CD in a similar way to a good pair of headphones. The Martin Logan ELS couldn't keep up here, they concealed many details of a recording with their very round and warm sound. The breathing of the musicians, noises from the conductor's podium, details from the applause in a jazz cellar, reverb information, the creaking noises of the double bass of a baroque orchestra (Bach, St. John Passion, Harnoncourt, 1st movement): I only knew all these details from my CDs from top-of-the-range headphones from Jecklin Float and AKG. I have never heard this resolution and speed from loudspeakers, not even from my Dynaudio Contour 1.8, which I owned before the Logans. The Nuline 100 could do it. Fascinating! That's what I've always wanted. 5. spatial representation/localization The Nuline 100 also had an advantage over the Logans in this respect, although the gap was not as large as in the previous point. Compared to the electrostatic presentation, the sound stage moved slightly more towards the depth of the room. I was able to localize and distinguish individual groups of an orchestra or choir well. My sonic conclusion: In almost all areas, the Nubert was clearly superior to Martin Logan's electrostats, which are almost twice as expensive, even though both transducers perform at a high level. So, for once, the advertising claims are not misleading, but accurate. Only in the areas of male voices/violoncello etc. could a little more warmth and volume be on the wish list (but please not at the price of coloration!) The additional octave downwards promised by the ABL module is actually present, I can recommend the purchase. I also find the module's adjustment options very good, because you can use them to counteract room conditions and imbalances in a recording without distorting the sound substance, as tone controls on amplifiers do. I would only give away the Nuline 100 in exchange for the NuWave 125...but then there's the matter of my wife's looks and taste...wood simply goes down better... The workmanship is impeccable and of high quality, and the advice on the phone was very patient, competent, objective and not too sales-oriented. G. Nubert answered some of my questions in the forum personally, in detail and with a high degree of objective seriousness: Where else can you get that ? I also find the opportunity to listen at home in peace and quiet very fair. I would like to take this opportunity to recommend Nubert because of their service and their products (as far as I know them, see above). If you want high-end sound, but also want to be able to count on your money, Nubert is the right address. Merry Christmas to southern Germany! My chain: Amplifier: Symphonic-Line RG-9 CD player: Marantz CD-10 Cable: Bi-Wire speaker cable from TaraLabs LF cable from Clearaudio Reference headphones: Jecklin-Float Elektrostat Reference sound: Concert visits, and above all my experience as a classical chamber musician (piano)

Too bad: I was just about to order something from the bargain section: 1x NuWave RS5 anthracite (to upgrade my 6.1 to 7.1 system). I was looking forward to it, but the hotline told me that these parts are not sold individually but only as a pair. Sad for 2 reasons: 1. you could have stated this from the outset (so I don't have to wait for the part) and 2. I've already left about 3000 euros with you, and I would have hoped for a little concession. Well, it's not that tragic. I would only advise selling the 2nd choice RS5 as a pair out of fairness. Because according to the hotline, the RS5 would be available individually as a new product...) Anyway, I'm still saving up for 2 NuWave 125's. At least I won't have any more problems because I'll be taking 2 of them. Have a nice holiday, see you soon!

Hello dear Nubert team, since last weekend I have been the owner of two NuBox 380. The sound and build quality absolutely match the specifications you gave me. The service in Sch. Gmünd was exemplary. Many thanks again to Mr. Schäfer, great advice. They will certainly not be my last Nubert speakers. Best regards Jan Kolditz

Hello expert Nubert team I've owned the brand new CS-150 for a week now and I'm completely delighted with it, just as I was with my existing speakers. You have once again outdone yourselves. One quality, one design, one price - SIMPLY CONCRETE !!! With this in mind, I wish you a peaceful, hopefully stress-free Christmas (you really deserve it) and a happy and successful new year.

I got the unique opportunity to get some Nubert-Knickboxes(4Ohm,250Watt(??))and I'm going to take advantage of it.it's just a pity that I can't find the right rest(i.e. a system) on the website... Greetings

Hi, I would like to take this opportunity to express my extraordinary satisfaction with Nubert customer service. I had a defect with the speaker of an AW-850. After a technician called me back, there were two alternatives. Send the entire speaker to Nubert or replace the speaker myself. The speaker arrived by post the next day. Unsoldered the old one, soldered in the new one and returned the old one to Nubert. All free of charge. Unfortunately, I was sent a speaker from a series whose magnetic shielding was not like that of my old speaker. After calling Nubert again and making a complaint, I received another package with the correct model the next day. Play as usual, desolder, solder, send back. Sound failure 2 times 10 minutes. It could hardly be better. A muesli bar was included in the second package to fortify me for my activities. Now that I've done my bit, I can enjoy the clear sound again with a bottle of wine that came in the first package. Exemplary, keep it up!

Today was the day, the nuBox 580 came into the house as an addition to my other Nubis (nuBox400, CS-330, AW-880). I don't want to start a pubertal chorus of praise here, if you want to read more about the quality of these great speakers, you should read my opinion in the forum. I would like to take this opportunity to praise the Nubert Speaker Factory. Not only great products, but also VERY GOOD service. Special praise to all the hotliners for their friendly and good advice. I would like to give all readers and those who may be undecided some food for thought: Where else in the hi-fi industry can you find a manufacturer with a free, easily accessible, competent hotline? Where else can you find affordable speakers of this quality ??? Which speaker manufacturer has a forum where the boss answers personally ??? This company really IS the way it presents itself. There is no pretense here. I wish all readers and the entire Nubert Speaker Factory staff a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year --- above all a few stress-free and peaceful days. Keep up the good work !!! Good luck and all the best for the coming years !!!!

Hello dear Nubert team! Last winter I heard speakers from your NuBox series for the first time at a good friend's house.... From that day on I knew which speakers I wanted for my future digital system. So shortly afterwards I ordered two NuBox 390s. Then came a Marantz SR 5200 A/V reciever, followed in the summer by a CS 330 and two RS 300's. My enthusiasm grew with every package that the guys from UPS brought. A few days ago, the long-awaited sub arrived. connected and...well, the swell on the North and Baltic Seas has increased...I think. Too bad, now I have no reason to order anything from Nubert in the near future..... I can only say one thing, in the next 1 or 2 years you will certainly get even more customers from the far north. All my friends who have heard your speakers are thrilled and some of them want to order speakers from you!!! So see you then...and keep up the good work, because even my hi-fi dealer was blown away when he heard your speakers!!!!! Greetings to the NuSnack team and Mr. Weinb.

Hello Nubert team,Thank you very much for the super-fast delivery of the new CS-150 center.I could make good use of the Corny bar.can only say one thing.super processed,unique sound and that with only 15cm height and... at this sensational price. This will definitely not be my last Nubert speaker.
