| Wanting to try a tube amp. That's a bummer. Wonder if damaged in transit somehow. Hope that gets resolved because I think you'd be very happy with the sound. I did just read that Primaluna is planning on some reference line products. Looking forward to hearing more details,... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @david_ten ok I get it. I bought the threaded ones, oops. Thanks. | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @david_ten So did you just wrap the adhesive discs around the hemisphere threads and insert? I have the hemispheres but haven't installed and still using the stock rubber bumpers. Where did you get the discs? Thanks. | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @david_ten how did you install the rear brass bumpers on your Cubes? Did you have to install threaded inserts? Thanks | |
| Wanting to try a tube amp. @knighttodd I thought the same thing. Then I got the PL and started with different tubes. Found out EL-34/KT77 are my favorites and Gold Line 12au7 are great too. Then, after a few years, wondered what else could be out there and went down the tub... | |
| Wanting to try a tube amp. Good choice on the PL. Will be interesting to hear your thoughts. I think PL can be the tube gateway drug. At least it was for me. My tube journey started with PL then to a Line Magnetic LM508 and now with a Canary M90. Also tried amps from Odysse... | |
| Wanting to try a tube amp. Sandy from GoldenEar uses Primaluna amps. That would be a great place to start and possibly finish. You can find great deals on used Dialogue Premium amps. That’s what I would be shopping for as my first tube amp. My first tube amp was a used Prim... | |
| Harmonic Tech Pro-9 for Nenuphar Minis? @korakotta how do you like the PL Evo 300 with the Mini’s? I’m using a Canary M90 with my Mini’s. It sounds great but I used to have a PL Dialogue and really liked the sound with EL-34s. I’ve been thinking about trying to demo the Evo 300 amp with... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure So been listening for a while today. Maybe this is a better way of describing the sound. With the Canary amp the sound is like peering into a deep funnel. It sucks you in and is very detailed and the tonality is so accurate and lifelike. It can be... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @tkukielk I think its a great idea to have Jim Salk build the cabinets. I own 2 pairs of Salks and the build quality is first rate. I also think the oiled walnut finish on the Nenuphar Mini's is also outstanding. I've had my mini's for a little ov... | |
| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? @tkukielk that’s a great idea having salk build the cabinets. I’m a big Salk fan. I have two pairs now (Song3’s and Wow1’s) and also had a pair of songtowers. I also recently purchased Cube Nenuphar Mini’s. I wanted a walnut finish and was thinkin... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure @david_ten I'm always open to suggestions but since this area is part of our main living room I have to balance the WAF in regards to placement. I'm also having a new cabinet built that will be about 3-4" wider than the current one. The listening ... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure I would describe the canary as “creamy” but with excellent detail. There’s a certain lit from within sound I’ve heard others describe but didn’t understand until I heard this amp. Voices are the best I’ve heard. Might be a touch polite but speaker... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure I uploaded photos in the virtual system. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/9181One issue I’m having is that when I turn the volume down I get a pop of distortion. I’m using a sachs preamp. I haven’t had this issue with any other speaker. It doe... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Received my Nenuphar Mini’s Friday night. Got them uncrated and hooked up but it was late once I did so I played a couple songs and waited until Saturday morning. Listened to some music Saturday morning at low volumes and left them playing all day... |
