Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure

@bobheinatz Bob, I would personally choose the Nenuphar Mini (F8 Neo driver) speakers for that sized room (11 x 12).

Keep in mind, I have my Nenuphars (10s) pulled way out into the room and listen to them in a somewhat nearfield position. My room is 19 by 26.

Perhaps those who have their Nenuphars placed much closer to the front wall will provide their recommendations?

Dave,
Thanks for your opinion.  My guess is also the F8's would be a better match in that room. Any one else with experience in a small room?

I have the Nenuphar 10" in a 15’ x 13’ room. Drivers 60" from the front wall and 7’ apart center to center. Listening position 7’ triangle so also in a near field configuration. I’ve tried them in every position I could think of and always come back to this. Toe-in is important. I started with them straight on then toed them in in tiny increments looking for a balance of sound stage and center image.
I’ve noted that in the last year or so Peter B. from AV Showrooms and others have placed them on the front wall and prefer that position in those rooms. It doesn’t work at all in my room. The sound stage collapses in depth, imaging disappears. The bass isn’t all that much if any better. These speakers have magical properties that will manifest for you if you find the right formula for them in your space. If the rest of your system and placement are right they will create sonic places, architectures, landscapes...places for you to go. When Srajan said they are a benign psychotropic drug, maybe he was having a similar experience.

Bob, 8 inch is my recommendation as well. What’s your floor finish?

11' x 12' = 132 sq ft = 12.3 sq meters
