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

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.

If you have Roon you can adjust the DSP.  I found that -1dB at 4000Hz and +1.5dB at 100Hz (both 1 for Q) with the Sample Rate Conversion set at smooth linear phase sounds excellent to my ears in my room.  This will get me by until there are more ears on the V2.

I’m curious how other Nenuphar owners have their speakers set up? Distance apart, distance from walls, distance to mlp, toed in/not toed in, etc.? Also, are you sitting at ear height of the center of the driver? With the speaker titled back I think I am sitting slightly below the center of driver. When I lean up and my ear gets above middle it can sometimes make a shift in imaging. Anyone else experience this?
 

Do your speakers disappear in the listening space? I live the sound of the Nenuphar minis but i tend to get sound coming direct from the speakers. Not everything but often vocals seem to come from the left speaker. I’ve tried moving the speakers closer, further apart, forward, back, toed in, etc. I’ve also tried multiple amps, preamps, dacs, cables, etc. just to be clear the speakers sound great but I’m still trying to get that magic imaging where the speakers completely disappear. Maybe my room is too small for single drivers. Any tips?

@abd1   How are your current speakers setup? If you share their positioning, toe-in and your listening position measurements; as well as your room's dimensions and speaker placement within the room...other owners should be able to give you better (more effective) feedback.

Here's some images/layout of the space. I have some other furniture in the room and a large area rug. I can't reconfigure the space (WAF). I've moved the speakers as wide as possible and as close, forward and back. I get some different results on different tracks but vocals tend to always be left sided. Being this is technically a dining room there is a cut out for hutch, which is where my equipment cabinet is. It's about 8' wide and 1' recessed. I wonder if that is creating some issues in the room, as well as the window area.
