Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure
Can you share more about the process for ordering and returning the V1 drivers? For example, do the V1 drivers go back to the dealer or do they go back to Cube Audio? How much time does the owner have to return, should they want to A/B a few times... 
DIY Replacing Components in Crossovers
Thanks Erik. Does Mundorf have a particular sound to them? Curious about "not to replace caps in parallel with the drivers." Is that less bang for the buck doing that ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ type in mundorf caps, you will see all my comments on mundorf...

What makes the biggest difference in sound quality?
speakers always most significant,,  thats the majority vote in my tube amps, I'd say the tube more than design/quality of trans 2A3 vs KT types THen KT88 vs KT90 Then one brand 88 vs another (I did not care for Gold Lion)  2A3 solid plates v...

SET Shootout China VS The USA
Regarding speakers: a pair or two of Quad 57’s plus a pair of Heath W5’s is audio nirvana! That’s what I use!   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quad57’s, Legendary, Richard mentions Q57’s are the Gold standard by which all xover speakers are measure... 
SET Shootout China VS The USA
Why bother with the Defy 7? Get a pair of nicely restored Heath W5's. Peerless iron. Add a quad set of Gold Lion KT66's and four vintage 12AU7's for the input/driver stages. 28 PP watts per mono amp. Sonically way better than any Chinese amp! I ha...
