Well, dear Nubert team... Now I have my nuBox681. It was a very long process. I saw these speakers for the first time at a friend's house and first of all I just fell in love with the design. In my opinion, the speakers would be worth buying even if they didn't sound good...

Then I listened to them with his taste in music. But his taste and his positioning of the speakers don't suit either the speakers or my taste. But you could already tell that there was a lot of potential in these speakers. Then I brought my music with me and listened to it and, despite the asynchronous set-up, I was thrilled and realized that I wanted these 'parts' too!

That was a few years ago now and something financial always got in the way of my purchase and somehow I was also attached to my old self-built speakers from 1991 until our daughter was born and at the tender age of 2 she gave the mid-range speaker a bruise with her fingers (I had no protective cover)... After a long search, I ordered a new one, which then suffered the same fate a month later...

And now I saw my crumpled box every day... Was that a sign??? :-)

YES!

So now I have carefully contacted Nubert. Maybe they are really unsympathetic people and then I would at least have a reason not to order one after all... But unfortunately they are also very nice and cooperative. Crap!

So the speakers look very good, they sound very good and the Nubert team seems to be made up of nice people. What's the catch?

So I ordered and everything went smoothly. Boxes were delivered in perfect condition. One box weighed 41 kg. Poor UPS man. My wife wasn't at home when he put them on the doorstep. I was determined to get the boxes into the warmth but failed because my wife was only 16 kg heavier than a box. I quickly went home at lunchtime and helped. After all, it was below zero! Oh yes, the fact that the box weighed 32 kg was also a not insignificant purchasing factor! And so the Nubis spent a day acclimatizing in the study...

Yesterday was the big day. Wife at work and the little one at kindergarten. There are things that a man can only do alone! Putting up boxes is one of them! There were boxes on the floor. They were opened straight away, but how do I get the speakers out of there in a way that's easy on the spine? I set up the box, pulled it out and then placed it on the furniture castor plate. The cables are about to fall around my ears. I don't need it... and put it away. I pushed the box into the living room and inspected it...It was beautiful the way it lay there...almost erotic. Metal speaker feet are included. I didn't want to use my old spikes because they wouldn't allow it to slide around on the floor.

Oh well. Nubert probably didn't think about the fact that you can put felt on the feet. I quickly went to the storeroom and grabbed my beloved felt carpet tiles, glued the legs to them and cut them out round. Perfect. Screwed it into place and positioned the beast and the other one too.... and then straight onto the couch and just let it work silently...The scene somehow reminded me of Stanley Kubrick's Odyssey in Space with the black monolith.... :-) I now had two of them....and felt just like those early humans...

I'll spare you the disassembly of the old boxes and the astonishment at the huge amounts of dust back there.

So I connected the new ones to the cables and switched on the amplifier...and then put in a CD...and first of all very quietly...does anything hum, crack or hiss? No...just quiet music...

Now let's put all the 'garbage' in the garage... and get the dust sour out... The eye can hear too!

So...and now onto the couch and listen and listen and listen...It often made my hair stand on end how close and real the voice sounds and how dry and crisp the bass is. If I only had a pleasant bass with my Canton AS50 with my old ones, I could do without it with the Nubis. So it was superfluous for music...

But as has often been described, the speakers really expose badly mixed music straight away and unfortunately there's a lot of that! Got stuck with Patricia Kaas, Norah Jones, Joss Stone and (God rest her soul) Amy. Goosebumps...and so I almost missed picking up my little one from kindergarten...

After that, things got a bit heavier and Yes, Savatage and Queensrÿche were allowed to play...

Great! I was always worried about the bass, which is so important to me, and because the Nubis only go up to 44 Hz. But the listening experience clearly says otherwise! I was and am completely satisfied. This purchase has made me really happy all round! Thanks to Nubert.

To be continued...

I'm simply amazed at the sound coming out of the Nuveros. I'm in the process of switching everything over to Nuvero. I'm currently using Nuvero 4 and Nuvero 7 without a sub, and the sound density in the room is simply amazing. It's really amazing what kind of sound the Nuvero 4 produces. What I particularly like is that the sound comes from a single source, the sound comes from a speaker that deserves to be called a speaker. The deep bass makes me happy every time!!! I operate the system with a Yamaha RX-V3067. It masters home theater and music playback really great, lots of dynamics and power, enough power for the Nuveros. I have to say, the Nuvero 7 really is a bomb, the ultra-deep bass is enormous. The loudspeaker can handle the volume - it's simply amazing!!! I used to have other manufacturers here but they could never hold a candle to it. Thank you Mr. Nubert for building honest loudspeakers.
I must have calibrated my system 30 times and have already noticed the difference between it and its predecessors.

Dear Nubert Team, Mr. Nubert,

Despite all the euphoria that is being expressed about your products - and rightly so, by the way - I would like to point out one thing that has been overlooked in recent years due to the general enthusiasm.

The first years of the product's life were almost completely ignored by the relevant trade journals. For a long time, Nubert was an insider tip among discerning hi-fi listeners. At the time, I wondered when the first tests would appear because I couldn't understand why such high-quality products weren't noticed.

This has changed drastically in recent years. Suddenly, media interest was aroused and the hymns of praise continued unabated. As a result - as I personally see it - Nubert loudspeakers have gradually moved into a completely different price category. Today, the phrase "cheap and good" no longer applies to me.

Well, you cut out the middleman, but this is no longer reflected in the prices. I don't want to name names, but comparable products today cost no more than Nubert products, even with a middleman.

Is it because of the hype that has been generated in recent years? In any case, there has been a quantum leap in terms of price.

Answer from the Nubert-Team

Dear Mr. Niederste-Werbeck!
We respect your opinion, which is probably based on the fact that there are cheaper speakers on the market today. Nevertheless, we are convinced that we can still offer our customers excellent value for money through direct sales ? which effectively saves costs. However, it must also be borne in mind that we continue to invest heavily in the quality of our products and therefore in high-quality components and elaborate designs, as well as offering a very high proportion of 'Made in Germany' or 'Made in Europe'. This is no longer the case with most competitor products. The focus is usually on how to produce "even more cheaply". Whether a Nubert product is perceived as ?cheap? at the end of the purchase decision is something everyone must and may decide for themselves?

It's also worth mentioning that a nuBox 660 cost DM 999 in 1996, while today's nuBox 681 still only costs DM 489, so the price has remained virtually stable!
Of course, we are now also represented in a higher price segment with the nuVero line - but even here we are convinced of the good price-performance ratio of our products.

I wanted to say a BIG word of praise for the Nubert service and the nice ladies on the phone, who do everything they can to make the customer feel like a customer.

Small parts are included as a matter of course when reordering grilles, for example (where other customer services charge outrageous flat rates for small parts!)

Thank you and keep up the good work as an oasis in the service desert that is Germany

Hello,
I have now received my new SUB AW17 and I have to say that I am thrilled.
In combination with the Nuvero 14, Nuvero 7 and the 4x Nuvero 5 in the surround range
I now have the optimum sound experience.
The service and the dialog with you is very remarkable and you always feel well looked after, whether in service or sales.
You can see pictures of my system under Nuvero and Denon home theater.
Keep up the good work

As of today I am the happy owner of the nuBox 511 set, but without rears for now.
The purchase process and packaging of the speakers were very good.
Fast transportation via UPS.
Unpacked the speakers, wired them up, connected the music and I was amazed.
Flawless playback. Whether normal TV, Bluray or music.
I will recommend you to my friends for the time being.

Hello dear Hi-End friends,

I did my first hearing test on Monday, January 7, 2013 in Schwäbisch Gmünd at the Nubert Hörstudio.
I was interested in the nuVero 11- nuVero 14. I already own 2 small active speakers nuPro-A 20 they are small, but they sound huge!!! Best reviews, that's how I came to Nubert.

I was allowed to listen extensively, spent a total of 2.5 hours in the listening room and was allowed to listen to my CD favorites at will, switching back and forth between the two LSPs, which became less and less as the listening time increased, as my favorite crystallized. It became the ... nuVero 14, but that doesn't mean that the 11 sounds bad! On the contrary, it's a matter of subjective preference (a matter of taste). Also not to be underestimated is the room size at home, for smaller rooms up to approx. 25 square meters (pi times thumb 🙂🙂, I would prefer the 11s, but as I said, trial listening is better than study. Shouldn't be a problem either, if you don't like it 4 weeks return or upgrading or downgrading possible!!!! You don't lose a single euro! That's what I call service!!! Unique.

Both LSPs play very well on the music fidelity M6. Balanced, very spacious and neutral/precise sound. Dynamics, dry bass, neutral mids and crystal clear highs, the whole thing in a harmonious sound image, the flow of the music becomes audible, even perceptible!!!
Large timpani, fine cymbals struck with a brush, clearly defined and uncolored in the room. The head resonates and vibrates....Yes, there really is space, detached from the 14s, clear, wide and deep with a fine dynamic. You can turn and turn the volume control....they don't go to their knees!!!!voices naturally with a certain timbre (listen to Steve Strauss). This is what high-end LSP sounds like at a reasonable, affordable price.
Mr. Nubert did not exaggerate, I think he rather "understated". I have enjoyed these LSP purely "neutral" (simple 4mmq2 LSP cables, no power strip or filters or extreme cables etc.) not with the ATM module, I save that for home, as I have to have these nuVeros.


Conclusion:
Of course there are even better LSPs, but not for me at this price. A "must have" for me!!! Price/performance/service unbeatable. And Mr. G....K... looks after and advises very well, friendly and competent, never pushy, keep it up and good luck, I hope that Mr. Nubert takes his time with a nuVero 15, because well, you understand ... "must have"!!!

I'm ordering a pair with ATM module.
Best regards and have fun with the Hi-End.
I.P.
:p 😂 :p 😂

I had been looking for a new hi-fi system for some time. As luck would have it, I went to my son's house in Switzerland to listen to his system. I was immediately very impressed. I asked, what kind of speakers are these? Answer, from Nubert, the nuLine 82.
On the way back I stopped at the branch in Schwäbisch Gmünd and tried them out. Absolutely convincing. At home, I placed the order with Mr. Bühler - a very friendly and competent employee. Mr. Bühler recommended the ATM-82 module, which supports the low bass even more. And it is precisely this part that makes the system perfect.
I had already put CDs away, and with this system a completely new sound suddenly appeared. You immediately get goose bumps.

I can only highly recommend Nubert. I am absolutely satisfied.

I came across Nubert by chance, I was in a tenant's apartment.
He had the DS 20 running. Click and it was an immediate fit.
So I contacted Nubert and registered on 28.12.12.
In the morning I drove about 480km from Duderstadt to Schwäbisch Gemünd with my wife and son.
Arrived punctually at 9.30am. Very friendly reception by Mr. Köhler.
We then showed him the drawing of the living room and expressed our wishes and ideas.
After a brief conversation, we went into the listening room.
Presentation of the Nubox 511, CS 411, DS 301 with AW 411.
The Kland in stereo and in the movie was outstanding, then the AW 911 for comparison.
This impressed with even more fullness, warmth and depth.
My wife decided on the 511 system with AW 911 in Black/Black because of the convincing performance.
Now all that was missing was the AV receiver. We had imagined a Yamaha rx 673/773, but Mr. Köhler's detailed advice made us switch to the Pioneer SC LX 56. This turned out to be a good choice.
We bought the entire system with stand and cable etc. at a good price.
-Consulting Super
-System super
-sound excellent.
The sound for movies is wow. Especially the depth of the bass is terrific.
The stereo sound is so multifaceted and neutral, I would choose Nubert again at any time.
Nubert again at any time.

The NuLine CS 174 has recently replaced the CS 40 here, which has provided excellent service over the years. How the new one performs in combination with my NuLine 80 (...yes, it fits, but nevertheless arouses desires, so be careful 😉 ...) is formidable, with all due respect to its predecessor.
Speech intelligibility, music reproduction at its very best. I know what I'm talking about, there's a pair of NuVero 14s here in HiFi mode as a reference, my wife really wanted them 😉 .

Greetings JG
