@toetapaudio Robert, any updates from Cube Audio that you are able to share?

It would be helpful and nice to see the specifications of the new driver version and comparative data for both drivers (as standalone drivers and as implemented in the Nenuphar speaker cabinet).

@David_ten

+1 on impedance and frequency response graphs of the two drivers.

@paullb Mentioning the following in case it is of interest:

Since Srajan Ebaen’s ’review’ makes note of these differences between the two versions of the drivers as implemented in the Nenuphar speaker cabinet...

If I move my listening position back by ~ 6 feet; which results in my standard-position toe-in coming to a point ~ 2 feet in front of me:

the effect (using SB’s terms) is a downward shift in weight, increased "blackness" and a reduction in the "incisiveness in the presence region"...the penalty: is a decrease in sound stage width...

[NOTE: a small couch (my preferred listening position) is likely a contributor as it is now in front of me; this outcome may be simply specific to my room, etc. etc.]

David, things are moving rather slowly atm. I’ll send my drivers off in the New Year now and in the meanwhile I’ll try and get hold of some technical details.

Happy  Christmas to everyone.
