I've been comparing these audio recordings side by side in a DAW. Even though the F10 Select seems somewhat "flatter sounding" and with a bit less resolution, it's amazing how many characteristics are conserved in a driver that costs less-than-half the price of the F10 Neo. To an untrained ear they must sound like the same driver. Congrats! It seems weird, though, that the couple of previous sound demos that were uploaded to this channel (the Nenuphar and the Jazzon videos) are much more reverb sounding/distorted, to put it in some way. Have you changed something in the recording equipment, or is it just how the DIY cabinets sound?
The Neo seems hissier, some might say harsher, artificially boosting detail at the top end. (Maybe this is how a cat or rabbit hears.) That said, I just bought a pair of the f10 Select, so I’m biased.
That is a great question. And the answer is - something absolutely awesome 😎 We are working on the DIY and commercial Open baffle projects. The DIY one will be published in about 2-3 weeks.
@@1984nadrules A driver needs to have a Qts measurement of 0.7 or higher for it to sound best in an open baffle setup. The Neo F8 is only 0.47, which puts it in the Sealed Enclosure camp. That would explain why they're complete speaker systems are all sealed enclosures. That said I would love to hear what any of the Cube Audio drivers sound like in an open baffle system.
Most so called Full Range Drivers you still need to cross over . These speakers absolutely not , the mids and the highs beautiful i would ad some larger drivers for the low end and you would end up with absolutely brilliant speakers !!!
In the past, if you tried to sell full-range speakers to a hi-fi fan, they would look at you really askance and just ask what kind of sphincter you are, and today you get something in the hi-end range WTF!
