Hello Mr. Siegle,
you're not serious? what are you trying to do? what were you thinking with the A-100? that's just not on! How can you do that?
GIVE ME SUCH A GOOD BOX?
I still have goose bumps when I listen to it (almost all night). Especially when you look at the A-100 again and think about which one is playing now.
334 or 100.
Except for the draft, of course. Whereby the draft of the A-100 even makes the curtain flutter for its "size".
How did you manage it? To conjure up such a sound from such a small speaker? The omnidirectional behavior is absolutely great! I think the 334 and the entire nuLine series would also look very good with the rounded cabinet edges of the Pro series.
Handling and processing of the A-100, delivery and contact with you! perfect. A+++++
I would also like the surface of the A-100 remote control (soft touch) for the nuControl FB!!! Plus lighting.
Just wanted to thank you again for your perfect work!!!!
How can you??? Keep up the good work!
Best regards from Sielenbach

Dear Nubert team,
A big compliment to the service department. My AW-560 subwoofer, of which I am still absolutely convinced, has developed a hum problem after 10 years. My fault analysis identified the transformer as the culprit. Unfortunately, no comparable spare part could be found on the Internet. Somewhat frustrated, I contacted the Nubert service hotline. A friendly lady promised me a call back from the service team within the next 30 minutes. And so it was. An employee took care of my problem and called me back the next day. I now received the spare part I wanted for a very fair price. An absolute highlight in the service desert that is Germany.
Thank you very much!

Dear Nubert team, this is the second time I have bought active loudspeakers from you. Thank you for the fast and uncomplicated delivery. The preliminary telephone advice was competent and helpful.
And what Nubert gets out of such small loudspeakers is remarkable, I'm happy with the great sound I now enjoy in my kitchen. Absolutely recommendable!
With thanks and best regards from Munich U.

I started with Nubert with an article about active speakers in the FAZ. Nubert, who or what the "hell" is Nubert? But I've been fascinated by active speakers for a very, very long time, ever since I heard some at a friend's house many, many years ago. So I cut out a newspaper article. Which spent a long time in a pile with other newspaper articles. I remembered it when I was once again annoyed by the poor quality of my "cheap" soundbar. It was perfect that Nubert had just released the AS-450 stereo board. But it cost many times more than my current soundbar. That hurts.
Well, in April the time had come and I took the plunge. After all, I still had the option of sending the stereo board back.
Then it arrived, the "fat" part. Heavy as a pig but visually it was an absolute hoot. After unpacking it, the decision was already made? I wouldn't want to give it back voluntarily... ? Connecting it was child's play. A "wow" at first hearing. And then I immediately thought that it was worth every penny of the proud EUR 1,335. Then came a long phase of trial and error with connecting here, connecting there... Bass (which is very powerful) up, bass down. And above all, playing with the SYS HP setting. Guys, changing this setting changes the character of the stereo board tremendously. The countless hours I've spent trying it out are definitely worth investing. Because the possibilities for changes are almost unlimited. The placement of the stereo board (in my case, distance from the wall and "central?" placement to the sofa) also has a decisive influence on the sound. As you can imagine, our domestic peace was often put under a great deal of strain during this time. So my better half once sighed "don't you want to ride your motorcycle again"? :-). No, I didn't want to. And then the time came? "We" had found the "optimum?" set-up and setting! Listening to music with the AS 450 is also a pleasure. So we were all completely satisfied for the time being and peace and well-being returned to our home?
But then, I can't remember why, I came across the operating instructions for the AS-450 again. Hmm, it said? with a pair of system loudspeakers? a more generous effect reproduction (in stereo) would be possible. Then it went back and forth in my head for a long time: I was actually already way over our budget for listening to music when I bought the AS 450. Hmm. But listening to a rehearsal, I could still afford that? :-)
Thought and then did it two weeks ago. I had the A-300 components recommended by Nubert plus the A-350 subwoofer delivered. And another "wow": now it came, the real stereo effect. But somehow, someway, the A-300 speakers plus subwoofer never really reached us. It wasn't the "wow" that the AS-450 was, and it didn't really fit in with the huge AS-450. The additional subwoofer also presented us with the problem of where to put it. After all, this was a living room and should remain a living room and not look like a listening studio.
So I also had the A-600 speakers delivered for a direct comparison. By the way, a big compliment to Nubert at this point: everything always went smoothly and super. A-600 unpacked and connected. And now a "wow wow". A quantum leap to the A-300, but really. After a few test listens, it came out of the back of my head? now it was all too late anyway - could the A-700 be another quantum leap?! But to have a few more speakers delivered to me now? What was I supposed to do with all those speakers all alone in the house, I thought warningly? Because my "better half" had already seriously threatened to move out?
So I took a day off last week, packed all the boxes into the car (thank goodness I have a station wagon :-) ) and drove to Schwäbisch Gmünd. And that was a very, very wise decision, as you are about to read!!!
I had an appointment in one of the many hearing studios there and naturally wanted to hear the A-700 straight away. And I got what I had "feared": Another quantum leap. After the first minute of listening, my thought was to pack up and take them home. But I hadn't reckoned with the Nubert consultant. He urged me to listen to all the CDs I had brought with me. Okay, I wanted to do him that favor. After all, I had driven over 200 km. But it was actually clear that it was the A-700.
As I zapped back and forth between the A-600 and A-700 with the remote control, I switched the speakers to speaker no. 8 [...].

[...] Hey, what was that????!!!! Crisp, clean sounds that I immediately imagined as a great addition to the stereo board. And you won't believe it: these were the A-500 speakers, which I had never even begun to think about. And now it started in the listening studio. Back and forth between A-600, A-700 and the "wallflower" A-500. Loud, quiet, loud, quiet. CDs in, CDs out. The customers outside in the sales room must have thought he had blown a fuse. Because no listening studio is so well soundproofed that the people outside don't notice anything :-). But I didn't care :-) Now I was in a fever?
I was also really confused because the A-500 speakers took me completely by surprise. If you take a look at them in the brochure or on the homepage, it's immediately clear why: compared to the A-700, the speakers are very narrow-chested, almost "delicate". But the sound live in the listening studio was so crisp, so fresh; simply great.
The decisive moment came with the CD by Jennifer Lopez with the song "let's get loud". A song that I really like and therefore listen to very often. However, I was always annoyed by the fact that the song is so bass-heavy and the bass just felt too powerful. And now it happened: With the A-500 speakers, there was no sign of this. The song finally came out of the speakers "cleanly". Don't get me wrong: The A-500 speakers also have plenty of power. But in a different way to the A-600 and A-700; simply clearer and "cleaner".
I was now sitting in the listening studio, completely flummoxed. A-500, you didn't even have them on your radar. Why them now? But all the back and forth didn't help. They were "my speakers", but you already have the A-450 at home and then my "guilty conscience" kicked in. It got even worse when the Nubert man said that he had never heard of anyone with an AS-450 buying the A-500 as well. Either or would be the alternative. Am I completely crazy now? I was able to assuage my guilty conscience somewhat by arguing that I couldn't return the AS-450 and that the A-500 would be a lot cheaper than the A-700. And then my living room wouldn't look like a listening studio either. Which would certainly help keep the peace in the house. My better half was now sitting at home and "expecting the worst".
What can I say?
Since Thursday afternoon, the A-500 speakers, with the luxury of an AS-450 as a base station, have been standing sleek and simply beautiful (with fabric cover at the front) to the right and left of the TV and stereo board (without fabric cover) in our living room. We both can't get it out of the living room :-) We change the settings (SYS HP is the magic setting!!), move the speakers back and forth and hear Jenny with an even bigger grin every time: Yes, that's it. Only the question of whether it sounds better with the AS-450 as a base station in mono or stereo has not yet been conclusively discussed :-) Thank goodness we are in the fortunate position of living in a detached house. I can't imagine the "circus" we would otherwise have caused with the neighbors with the "noise" we made when testing the speakers.
As I'm writing this short novel early on a Sunday morning, my sound system is playing quietly in the background. God knows I'm no expert. But if speakers can deliver the full bandwidth even when quiet, then the optimum has been reached. I don't really care if it could be topped after all. Also because I can't imagine that my "hard-earned" solution can be topped at all. With their crisp, fine and clean tones, the A-500 speakers are the perfect complement to the "massive" AS-450, which is equipped with a lot of bass, period.
What have I learned?
Only listening to a lot of rehearsals helps when making a decision. It was worth "sacrificing" a day's vacation and driving over 200 km to Schwäbisch Gmünd. Because otherwise I wouldn't have had the idea that the A-500 speakers are the 'right' addition to the AS-450, which also look great with the AS-450; a detail that should not be underestimated, especially for 'non-alone decision-makers', to maintain 'peace of mind' :-).
Finally, a big, big compliment to the Nubert team:
Guys, that was great!!!! The whole process was so streamlined and perfect, it couldn't have been better.

I ordered the nupower d online on Sunday and it arrived on Tuesday, well packaged. I was expecting a lot of reserves and power, and that's what I got. But the differentiation and clarity of the sound at all volumes thrilled me! A clear plus compared to the old amp, which cost half the price. Nupower d - I definitely love it. 🙂 😎

I was allowed to bring my speakers!!!!
And off to the studio to test new stereo network receivers.
- It turned out to be a Yamaha -
I'm delighted with the openness to customers and the extremely expert advice.
THANK YOU to Nubert-Aalen - I'll be back again!
Best regards from Neusäß 😬

After buying the NuWave 10 about 10 years ago, I needed something new. I was taken with the NuPro series. I recently bought the A-700 and the A-300.
What can I say, even 10 years ago I had the same sentence in my head immediately after listening to them as I do today: "I'll never give them back".
I don't know how Nubert does it, but for me the sound of the speaker systems is so outstanding and unique. I am always amazed by something new. For that I simply say "Thank you very much" to the Nubert team.
Best regards

Hello,
after I had been thinking about buying new speakers for some time,
to replace my 10 year old "party speakers", a friend of mine gave me the
HiFi connoisseur gave me the tip to try Nubert.
I had previously tested speakers from 2 other established suppliers in our somewhat difficult room (50 square meters, parquet flooring, little furniture, lots of glass).
However, the difference to my existing loudspeakers did not justify
the financial outlay.
I spent a good six months with the Nuline 284, read forum and test reports
and was on the verge of ordering this type, but then wanted to wait for the High End 2017.
The Nuline 334 was then presented here.
Our return trip from vacation then took us to Nubert in Aalen, where, after prior
my amplifier type ( Yamaha A-S801) was connected for testing after prior telephone
was connected for testing.
Many thanks to Mr. Kropshofer, who also provided very friendly and competent information when we had questions later.
My wife and I played various speakers (NuVero 170, 140, 110, Nuline 334, 284, 264) in the listening room.
We primarily switched between our favorites 334 and 284, whereby it quickly became clear that it would be the 334,
that it would be the 334, as we could clearly hear the difference in sound.
audible for us. More power and pressure. Simply more powerful.
The order was placed on the spot and we have now tested the Nuline 334 for a month in our "difficult" room.
We are delighted and now listen to music much more often.
The sound is just great. Many sounds we didn't hear before and the 334s can really party.
The look and finish are flawless. They blend in beautifully with our living room in white.

Good evening everyone,
I would also like to help all interested parties to make a purchase decision.
I am talking about the nuPro AS-250.
This active loudspeaker is really awesome. The performance for this design and the cost is absolutely justified. Don't forget ACTIVE!
Although the connection options are not exceptionally huge, they are sufficient for me personally. I only use a TV (via CoaxDigital) an AppleTV (via optical input) and a BlueRay player via RCA or I have to switch to optical).
This speaker is REALLY SUPER CLASS!
But there is always something to complain about or disadvantages.
I've owned the speaker for 10 months now and have no complaints.
Over time, however, I have noticed that although this speaker can store 3 presets, these can only be changed using the close-up controls.
To be honest, I find this to be a "major" disadvantage, especially as a remote control is supplied with the speaker. I don't want to be a smart aleck, but one more button (preset 1,2,3 at the touch of a button) on the remote control would certainly not be much more expensive. Personally, I would be VERY happy about an update to the remote control.
Why is this so important to me?
I've had a baby and don't want to wake my little one up. So I could use the remote control to quickly select a different sound setting at any time without having to go through the whole menu via the remote control.
In this day and age, technology is very convenient and if a remote control is included, why not have a preset button?
I would also be very pleased to receive an e-mail from the developer.
I hope I have been able to help anyone interested in this speaker.
Kind regards
Leo Demund
