NUBERT products (Europe), what do you know?

[Vytauts]

In borderless web world found NUBERT manufacturer (www.nubert.de) which makes hi-fi equipment.

When searched some measurements of their speakers.
Found these from stereo.de
Nubert nuBox 683 (tower)

Nubert nuLine 284 (tower)

Nubert nuVero 10 (tower)

Nubert nuVero 11 (tower)

To my untrained eye it looks pretty ok for towers, what do you think?
Does anyone from community use their products and have heard any speaker?
Would be cool to hear any opinion.

I had in the past:
- a pair of nuPro A-300
- a pair of nuBox 513 with a pair of nuBox 313
- a pair of nuVero 140 with a pair of nuVero 50
- nuVero AW-12 sub and nuLine AW-1100 sub

I was a huge fan of their speakers, I loved all of them
I think in Europe they are one of the best brands when it comes to price/value ratio

I stopped having them as I have moved to fullrange (one-way) speakers with subs with Dirac Live 3 - all DIY
The difference is huge (this is totally subjective of course)

More measurements/reviews of Nubert active speakers made by Sound & Recording can be found in a list that @MarsianC# has compiled: http://www.hifi-forum.de/index.php?action=browseT&back=1&sort=lpost&forum_id=30&thread=38847

What stands out above all - at least for the active models- is the features (Depending on model: volume control, bass/treble control, remote control, network/wifi, newest models come with room correction app i think).

I have owned a couple in the past and have heard few more of them at a Nubert showroom.
They are usually very linear at 0° (due to quite complex crossovers) but not as perfect in directivity since they don't use waveguides yet. AFAIK they use also mainly customized Peerless drivers which are also quite a good choice.

At the risk of hi-jacking this thread, same here for their proprietary (?) wireless offer "nuConnect"

The nuConnect ampX actually was even already measured here https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...rt-nuconnect-ampx-streaming-amp-review.10470/

Interesting, because there is KleerNet, also German, used in Edifier S3000PRO. (Between the 2 speakers.) Also Sennheiser, AKG, Focal.

Nothing wrong with both the passiv and active Nubert speakers. Had several, ended with the nuVero 14 which I could catched directly from an exhibition when it has been presented their [first] "flag-ship". If I would look back engaging passiv speakers, Nubert certainly would be on my agenda.

Thanks,
What pros and cons would you describe of nuBox 513?

 

[ppataki]

At that price point, no cons; it is basically a gift

The pros:
- really good bass extension (around 25Hz or even below depending on your room)
- high dynamic range
- pretty flat frequency response curve

I would personally recommend combining it with Dirac Live 3 - it will not only cut the peaks in the bass region but also fix the step response curve (will time align the drivers with frequency dependent delay)

Yes, Dirac is a must for almost every audio setup.
nubox 683 should have better bass, is there any other reason to choose 683 versus 513? Tweeter looks the same.

 

[ppataki]

My neighbor has a pair of 683s - he is super happy with them
They can go down to 20Hz or even lower - but you would really need Dirac to tame those frequencies otherwise they will dominate the whole spectrum
It also has a higher dynamic range
The drawback is the really big size - it is not as thin as the 513 - it has a lower Wife Acceptance Factor

Do they ship/are available in Europe outside Germany? I run across Nubert when I was looking for a subwoofer, but with their website being entirely in German and their products available on amazon.de not shipping to my location I was under the impression they're limited to German direct market only.

They certainly have some interesting offerings.

 

[ppataki]

I live in Hungary so I believe if they ship here they ship everywhere else within the EU

 

[buz]

I think it depends on the product, for the nuvero 170 they limit shipping to Germany Austria Switzerland because of the weight.

I think a similar question should probably be asked about Teufel (the other German direct speaker vendor)

Shipping no problem, try to add to cart and you will see shipping costs to your country.

I have their nuPro X-8000RC towers with the ampX as wireless controller, and I am very pleased with the performance and sound quality. The 8000 have excellent bass response, and the Room Correction seems effective. The wireless is very good, it has low latency and is totally stable even with lots of WiFi and Bluetooth in the neighbourhood.
The speakers arrived 4 days after I placed the order, well packed on a pallet. A small issue with a remote control was fixed within two days.

You might also consider an additional ATM, these are bass extension modules with some other features.
