Hello Nuberts, On February 9, 2002, two of us arrived at your place. A friend of mine who has liked my NuWave 8 for months so much that he sold his speakers (Mission 782 after all) without further ado and now wanted to make a direct comparison between NuWave 8 and 10. my task was SIGNIFICANTLY more difficult: to put together a system for my brother-in-law for 600 EUR. The speakers were set: Nubox 310! Mr. Härer solved the task competently and perfectly: Nubox 310, Yamaha 383 integrated amplifier, Yamaha 383 CD player, plus super LS cables and NF cables. My brother-in-law and his lovely wife are thrilled and just want to listen to music. My companion opted for the NuWave 10, presumably also to torture me.....! (they were just too high for me at the time). During our listening session, Mr. Nubert joined us and we talked to him for a long time. Highly interesting! The man is a genius and also knows a lot about music. He has obviously turned his hobby into his profession.....and he's damn good at it. It was a very successful day. Thank you very much !

Hello, now that I had finally decided on the CS-40, I ordered the AW-550 Sub for testing. As usual, friendly and fast delivery service. It arrived punctually on Saturday morning. After unpacking and setting it up, it was time to fiddle around. First I wanted to adjust and adapt the sub to my existing HIFI stereo system. Unfortunately, I realized that there was no improvement in sound quality. I use a Yamaha DSP A1, two ALR Take5, Nubert CS-40 and Yamaha (flat) rear speakers. The sub was supposed to support the Take5 in the bass range. Unfortunately, it didn't work! Although the bass reached deeper, it became too dominant in the entire range. None of the settings brought any improvements. 😭 I then tried the whole thing with digital surround sound (DD and DTS). It then worked 😬 As an effect sub, a mood is created. Previously, I had directed the bass to the main speakers, which worked quite well, but was far too weak-chested compared to pure stereo operation (also DD 2.0). With the AW 550 I was now able to compensate for this digital weakness. 😂 The settings now look like this: Yamaha: all speakers at the listening position set to the same level, Bass +3 dB button activated, DD and DTS Center at 0 dB, Rearspeaker at Small, Center CS-40 at Small, Main at Large and Bass at SW (subwoofer). It should be understood that in this setting the Yamaha only sends the bass for the right and left channels to the main speakers. The bass for the center and the rears is sent to the sub. The sub is set to 180 degrees, level 0 dB and center frequency. This gives me the best sound and effect for movies in DD and DTS. With analogue Dolby, or in this setting for almost all TV programs, the sub very often has nothing to do 😱 At first I thought there was a fault here, until I realized that the Yamaha's sub output only sends the bass below 90 Hz to this output. Moreover, with my settings only those from the center and rear. This means that the sub is rightly left in the idle position, it is simply not needed, where there is nothing, nothing can be amplified. :rolleyes: With 2-channel playback, i.e. DD 2.0 or stereo, the sub has nothing to do either, as my settings mean that all frequencies are only directed to the two main speakers. I have found the best settings for me here. 😂 Unfortunately, there are still music DVDs 😱 And this is where my problem lies. These are usually designed for sound and not for effects. In my case, this means that the bass is heavily exaggerated, grumpy and far too dominant. Switching off the sub doesn't help, because then I'm back where I was at the beginning, i.e. too little volume compared to 2-channel operation. In this case, I would have to set the controls on the AW 550 for frequency to the left stop and for level to - 6db every time. For video DVDs, the whole thing then goes back to the center position. The remote control has its work cut out for it. But since I have a horizontal setup and the long front panel, I can't see what I'm setting :rolleyes: So there is only one solution left. My Philips PRONTO remote control can be programmed with macros. So I have to time the controls until they are in the right place and teach the remote control accordingly. Click on the AUDIO or VIDEO button and the Pronto adjusts the sub to the DVD sound. 😬 What you won't do to keep a Nubert speaker. Many greetings and thanks for the great Sub. By the way, it would be great if you could offer a grille to match the nuLine instead of the fabric cover. Ralf

I can only agree with the previous speaker. I now have the same complete configuration. Set up cs3 cs330 and rs3rs300. When the sub arrived today, I got scared 🙂 Even at 35sqm, it pumps away everything that isn't firmly on the floor or table. I can only say that it's amazing. Let's see which room I'll fit out next 🙂 Greetings Thorsten

😂 Hello there, this is (yet another) enthusiastic customer. After the neighbors have just left for a walk, I immediately :rolleyes: went straight to the system and really cranked up my anniversary set = AW 850, CS 3, RS 3 and the fabulous Nu 460. Even five rooms away, the windows almost blew out and so did the fuses in my brand new Sony STRDB 940 (also from Nubert) :redface: :rolleyes:. Suddenly nothing worked and I came back down to earth shocked and a little scared. The receiver no longer made a sound. So I immediately got on the worry phone and called Nubert, where Mr. Schneider was able to reassure me that the speakers were practically indestructible and that I should send the amplifier in. After a good 2 weeks of withdrawal, the Sony was repaired under warranty and reconnected to the nubis. Since then, I've been enthusiastically popping in DVDs again and enjoying the breathtaking movie sound in my living room. This incident also gives me the certainty that I did everything right when I bought my wonderful (sounding) Nubert speakers. Best regards from Ostbevern from Michael and Anne 😬 😬 😬 😱 😂 😂 😂 😂

I can only agree with all the positive previous comments: first-class advice, also in advance, prompt delivery within just 2 days and quality and performance that not only convinced me but overwhelmed me!!! Just a brief comment on Nubert's exceptional service: When I went to Aalen to test the Nubert equipment live, I unfortunately arrived very late, i.e. 30 minutes before closing time on a Saturday. Without even glancing at the clock, let alone rushing, my ears were washed with all the sound variants in the following one and a half hours (!!!) and all my questions were patiently answered. This service and of course the excellent sound, especially from the Nubert AW 900 subwoofer, convinced me to buy this device and the Denon AVR 3802. I am extremely satisfied and will continue to rely on Nubert in the future. Because service is literally to be seen here! Special greetings to Mr. Schneider! 😬

Hello, thank you very much for sending me the CS-40 so quickly. I have now carried out extensive tests and have to say that there is probably no better center for the price. Really great. I also like the switch to lower the treble linearly, which is sometimes necessary with bad DVDs and proSieben. Based on my experience, I recommended a friend to test the nuForum 120 when he was about to buy a speaker. It will be competing against the Nautilus 803, among others. I'm really curious to see what the result will be. Best regards Ralf Kiesele

yesterday (exactly 22 hours after my order) my nubox 360 arrived and since then Nubert has one more satisfied customer. at first i let the little one play on my amplifier alone. wonderfully dry, unobtrusive but always present bass that reaches surprisingly deep for its size. i previously owned a sub/sat combo and was already quite satisfied with it. and when i heard the speakers in direct comparison, i first noticed that the nubox sounds drier and not quite as dominant. it was difficult for me, but i had to admit that my home-made project had a tendency to exaggerate the mid and fundamental frequencies. fortunately, today i was able to listen to really first-class speakers from an english brand in a nearby hifi store, which are much more expensive. and i realized that music should indeed sound different from what i was used to from my previous speakers. back at home, i was then able to admit to myself with satisfaction: i have moved up. nubox rules! 😎

Hello Nubert Team ! First of all, praise for the professional competence and friendliness of the staff. After much deliberation I decided on the AW 880 subwoofer, although I've been a die-hard Quadral fan for about 15 years, and I'm glad I listened to the trade press, because I won't be giving up this very well-made and, above all, very clean and incredibly deep sub, and I'm even thinking of using your products completely for my next purchase. Yours sincerely, A very satisfied customer 😂 😂 😂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

Now that the discontinued model ? 🙂 AW 850 has found its place in my living room, nothing is the same as it used to be. You can only say - bigger, louder, deeper. (And the neighbors get something out of it too - great). Greetings from Franconia ... and keep up the good work
