Danger of electric shock!
The loudspeaker carries mains voltage and voltages higher than 35 V AC or DC
inside. It has no special protection against the intrusion of liquids or objects into
the system. There is therefore a risk of lethal electric shock.
• Never touch the speaker with wet hands!
• Only use the speaker in a dry place!
• Do not operate it outdoors or in damp rooms!
• The loudspeaker must be protected from liquids of all kinds, including dripping
and splashing water.
•
Do not place any containers containing liquids (e.g. ower vases) on the speak-
er or in the immediate vicinity!
• If the loudspeaker is moved from a cold environment to a warm room, conden-
sation may form inside the unit. Wait at least six hours until the loudspeaker
has reached room temperature and is dry before switching it on!
• No objects or foreign bodies may get into the device.
• Should the loudspeaker come into contact with liquids or should objects have
got inside, please unplug the mains plug immediately and contact Nubert elec-
Danger of injury or damage!
For speakers with threaded bushings on the underside:
The threaded bushings may be used for upright mounting of the loudspeaker on
suitable base plates only. The threaded bushings on the underside of the loud-
speaker enclosures are not designed for tensile loads and must therefore not be
used as holders for hooks or similar devices in order to suspend the loudspeaker
cabinet. A falling speaker may cause serious injury and damage.
Connection instructions
General connection instructions
• Disconnect the mains plug before changing any wiring on the system!
• Make sure that all connections have been made correctly and that all plugs
are rmly seated in the sockets before connecting the speaker to the mains.
• Use only the intended cables or plug connections for the connections! Failure
to do so may result in damage or malfunction.
•
If you want to disconnect connections on the loudspeaker, always pull the plug,
never the cable!
• Ensure that all plugs are rmly seated in the sockets!
• Only use cables and accessories recommended by Nubert!
Danger of electric shock!
Faulty mains supply systems or excessive mains voltage can lead to electric
shocks.
•
All power supply or antenna systems connected to the loudspeaker must com-
ply with all applicable laws and regulations and be professionally installed by
an approved installation company.
• Use only the appropriate power cord to connect the speaker. Do not modify
the power cord or its plug.
• Make sure that the mains voltage at your location matches the requirements
of the loudspeaker! The correct power supply can be found on the label on the
back of the speaker. It must not be connected to other power supplies.
• Devices of Class 1 construction must be connected to the mains power socket
outlet with a protective earth connection. Make sure that the installation of the
protective earth is carried out correctly!
• When laying the power cables, make sure that they cannot be damaged (e.g.
by heating or mechanical stress)! Pay particular attention to the areas of the
connectors and distributors!
Caution!
Overvoltage in the power supply system (e.g. due to lightning) can damage or
destroy the device and power supply unit.
• An overvoltage protection element can provide a certain degree of protection
against excessively high voltages in the power grid.
• However, the greatest possible protection against damage can only be
achieved with the complete separation from the mains supply.In case of thun-
derstorms or danger of lightning strikes, disconnect the mains cable from the
socket and any antenna plugs from your hi- system!
• If the speaker is not used for a long period of time or is unattended, the power
supply should be disconnected. Disconnect the mains plug from the socket!

Unpacking and Scope of Delivery
Auspacken
When unpacking your speaker, do not use sharp or pointed objects
to avoid possible damage to the enclosure. Please keep the packaging in a safe place in case you need to transport the speaker at
a later date.
Scope of delivery
If the delivery is complete, it contains the following parts:
• 1 nuPro active loudspeaker
• 1 Cloth grille
• 1 remote control with battery
• 1 Mains cable, 2 m
• 1 HDMI ARC adapter
• 4 Signal cables:
– SPDIF coaxial cable, 3 m
– Stereo jack cinch cable (3.5 mm jack cinch), 1.5 m
– Fibre optic cable with TOS-Link plugs, 1.5 m
– USB cable (Type A/Type B), 1.5 m
Cloth grille
The cloth grille protects the loudspeaker drivers (for example from
curious children who like to press in tweeter domes) and provides a
visual contrast for those who do not like the technical appearance
of loudspeaker drivers. It is carefully placed against the front of the
speaker and held in place magnetically. Please make sure that the
surface of the bafe is not damaged.
With the cloth grill removed, the loudspeaker sounds somewhat
brighter and clearer - the choice is yours!
Low temperatures and Sound
When speakers are shipped and delivered during the cold months
of the year, it is imperative that they adapt to the temperature of
the living area. Low temperatures have a considerable inuence on
the moving parts of a loudspeaker such as diaphragm, voice coil,
bead and spider. The ability of these components to follow rapid
oscillations or to perform large excursions is thus signicantly restricted. This is not dangerous, but “frozen” speakers are far from
their acoustic peak.
Hence our tip: When your new speakers arrive on a cold winter’s
day, just give them a few hours to acclimatise. Your Nubert speakers will thank you with the superior sound quality you have come to
expect from us.
Mains cable, 1.75 m
HDMI ARC adapter
Setup
The nuPro X are high-quality, very neutral active stereo loudspeakers. They impress with an extremely homogeneous, precise, and
“direct” sound reproduction with the nest resolution in the entire
frequency spectrum. However, even “honest loudspeakers” are
exposed to the manifold inuences of room acoustics. In order to
achieve the most natural and true-to-life reproduction possible,
please observe the following general installation instructions:
• The rear-facing bass reex ports should be at least 3 centimetres
away from back- and side walls in order to avoid air ow noise.
Some distance to the back- and side walls also helps prevent an
increase in the bass- and fundamental ranges. If the bass reproduction is perceived as being too strong when the speakers are
placed close to a wall, you can raise the lower cut-off frequency of
the speakers, as described on page 8 under system hp, and/or adjust the bass volume with the bass control as a “countermeasure”.
•
When placed on a shelf, the best sound is achieved when the front
edge of the speaker is either ush with the shelf or even protrudes
slightly. This allows the loudspeaker to radiate the sound freely into
the room and helps to avoid voices sounding like coming through
a funnel.
• Within horizontal listening angles up to 30 degrees off the hori-
zontal axis, you will experience no signicant change or loss in
sound quality. Only at wider listening angles does the sound lose
its brightness slightly. It is then advisable to point the speakers
towards the listening position.

• The most natural sound is achieved when the tweeters are approximately at ear level. But even 20 degrees above or below
the tweeter axis, the sound is still homogeneous. If your active
speakers need to be placed lower or higher, they should ideally
be angled so that the tweeters are aimed at the listening position.

Construction and technology
Tilt Control
The midrange/treble adjustment of the nuPro loudspeakers shows
the characteristics of a so-called “Tilt control”. While standard treble
controls “bend” the frequency response and thus produce colourations, this control continuously affects the frequency response in
a linear fashion. This perfectly preserves the basic tonal character
of the loudspeaker and the harmony of the sound image. The Mid/
Hi tone control allows an increase or decrease of the frequency
response with a maximum of 10 dB at 20 kHz.
Analog gain
The input sensitivity for the analog inputs XLR and AUX can be
adjusted in 2 steps (0 dB / +6 dB).
Digital Signal Processing
For maximum signal purity, the signal path of a nuPro X is kept on
the digital level as far as technically possible. Thus, the input signal
is transferred to a digital signal processor (DSP) by the shortest
route, which takes over the frequency distribution and the optimiza-
tion of the frequency response. Also the passing on to the amplier
components is done digitally, so that the maximum signal to noise
ratio and precision can be guaranteed.
Time correction
Due to the digital signal processing every nuPro X loudspeaker has
a small delay of the sound signal. If the nuPro speakers are operated as a stereo pair in the PAIR conguration, any time differences
between the speakers are automatically compensated so that the
left and right signals are reproduced at exactly the same time. The
result is the best possible spatial reproduction with precise voice
positioning.
6
Sound format
The nuPro X loudspeakers process signals at the digital inputs in
“PCM” format. It may therefore be necessary to adjust the settings of
players such as TV sets or game consoles accordingly. To do this,
select “PCM” as the output format in the playback menu. Please also
refer to the manual of your player.
Switching off a nuPro X pair
If the master box switches to standby mode (due to automatic
switch-off or manually with the remote control), the other boxes op-
erated in PAIR mode follow automatically.
Auto-on function
The automatic switch-off/switch-on reacts differently depending
on the pre-selected input. If no signal is present at the analog signal inputs, an automatic switch-off takes place within 20 minutes.
Switching on is reversed as soon as a music signal is detected. At
the other inputs, the activity of the connected source device is monitored and therefore immediately switched off or on. At the inputs
Spdif, Optical, Port, AES the presence of the digital data stream is
evaluated, while at the USB input the presence of the USB supply
voltage is considered.
Note: Modern computers often have USB sockets with a voltage
applied even when the computer is switched off (e.g. for charging
a mobile phone). If you want to use the auto-on function of your
nuPro active loudspeakers in conjunction with the USB input, you
must select a USB connector that does not have continuous voltage.

Configuration of the nuPro X loudspeakers please note the „Menu sitemap and navigation“ on page 10/11
Every nuPro X has the same range of functions and the same connections. Depending on the cabling (see the “Setup” section), the
nuPro active loudspeakers automatically congure themselves as
master or slave loudspeaker boxes after switching on: the link-out
loudspeaker box becomes master, the SPDIF-in loudspeaker box
becomes slave. All settings of the loudspeakers are now based on
this assignment. You are then ready to play.
Alternatively you can connect nuPro X loudspeakers wirelessly. After
switching on your speakers, you use the MENU control in the setup
to determine which of the speakers becomes master or slave - see
below, topic “setup”.

Further Applications
Conjunction with a subwoofer
If your nuPro active speakers are to be used in conjunction with a
subwoofer, you can connect it to the SUB connector. This provides
a mono sum signal with a low pass lter for subwoofers. The crossover frequency can be selected in the sub out menu item. The
selection of the suitable crossover frequency of the nuPro active
loudspeakers can be made under system hp (see above “Cong-
uration > advanced > system hp”). The relative volume of the subwoofer can be adjusted at the subwoofer itself.
Connecting a nuPro pair to a preamplier
In addition to connecting a preamplier to a nuPro pair in masterslave mode, an external preamplier can also be connected direct-
ly to the individual nuPro active loudspeakers. As with conventional
active loudspeakers without master-slave functionality, the boxes
can then be congured independently of each other. Connect the
output of the left channel of your preamplier to the nuPro on the
left and the output of the right channel to the nuPro on the right.
Note: Assign the left input AUX L in the nuPro speaker box. Do not
connect the boxes to each other with the SPDIF coaxial cable.

Link SPDIF Link SPDIF Link SPDIF Link SPDIF
Use of a single nuPro
Every nuPro X has the possibility to play the left or right channel as
well as a mono sum signal. To do this, select the menu item chan-
nel. (See above “Conguration > channel”).
Use of more than two nuPro active loudspeakers
(see illustration below)
To supply a larger number of nuPro active loudspeakers with the
same signal, the connection from Link out to SPDIF in can be per-
formed repeatedly. In this case it is recommended to congure
each nuPro individually and therefore to select the entry single
in the menu item setup. Then you can navigate to the menu item
channel and select the channel that the respective nuPro should
play back. (For further information see section “Conguration > setup” above).
Note: In the single conguration, the speaker box at the link output
outputs the selected input signal completely in SPDIF format. It is
therefore possible to transmit the signal repeatedly.

Care and cleaning tips
Caution!
!
Improper handling of the speaker may result in damage.
• Always unplug the speaker before cleaning it!
• Before recommissioning, make sure that all connections are correct, that there are no short circuits and that the speaker is completely dry.
• Never use strong cleaning agents or solvents such as petrol, spirit or similar!
Enclosure
We recommend commercial window cleaner sprayed onto a cotton
cloth. This allows almost all ngerprints and dust to be easily removed. Alternatively, you can also use window active foam.
We advise against the use of microbre cloths! These can cause
mini scratches in the surface.
Diaphragms and Speaker Chassis
To remove dust from a loudspeaker chassis, a lint-free cotton cloth
is sufcient to wipe the membrane lightly with very little pressure.
The tweeters of all Nubert loudspeakers are equipped with a pro-
tective grille so that they can also be wiped off with low pressure. If
the dust cannot be completely removed, a make-up brush from the
drugstore is suitable.

Nubert electronic GmbH, Goethestr. 69, 73525 Schwäbisch Gmünd,
Germany (German)
Phone: +49 7171 92690-0 · Fax: +49 7171 92690-145 · E-Mail: [email protected]
Managing Director: Günther Nubert · Register court AG Ulm, HRB 700296
Tax ID No.: DE 16758584 · WEEE Reg. No. DE 48888173
Nubert warrants the Nubert product described in this manual to the purchaser under the following terms and conditions.
The purchaser‘s statutory warranty claims, in particular for subsequent performance and, if applicable, damages in the event of defects, shall remain unrestrictedly with the
purchaser and shall be fully available to our customers.
1. The warranty period for the Nubert product and its electronic components described in this manual is 2 years from the date of delivery.
Your proof of purchase is the proof of guarantee.
2. Contents of the warranty claim
The guarantee applies to all parts and labour costs from delivery. It includes and is limited to the free repair or replacement of the defective part in the event of a material
defect in the goods (e.g. Material defect or manufacturing defect). In addition, Nubert shall bear the costs of the return shipment of the affected product from or to the curb
in the case of justified warranty claims, provided that the goods are within the countries of the European Union and the shipment was previously agreed with Nubert. Additional services are possible as a gesture of goodwill in accordance with Nubert’s free discretion. For the duration of the guarantee, it is assumed that the material defect
was already present at the time of transfer of risk. Replaced parts become the property of Nubert. Warranty services do not extend the warranty period, nor do they set a
new warranty period in motion. The warranty period for installed spare parts ends with the warranty period for the entire device. The promise or the execution of warranty
services is made without recognition of a performance obligation according to statutory warranty law.
3. The warranty claim does not apply in the case of
• repair attempts of any kind not previously agreed upon with Nubert
• improper operating environment or improper storage (e.g. Damage due to moisture)
• improper transport packaging (the original transport packaging, correctly used, provides sufficient protection)
• improper transport, if the transport was not previously agreed upon with Nubert (Nubert organizes the transport for you with Nubert selected
• Transport company. You will receive return tickets with the corresponding postage paid returns).
• improper mechanical effects on the goods (e.g. on housing, switches, connection sockets or antennas)
• improper operation, improper mounting (e.g. switches, antennas) or improper connection (e.g. operation on defective or unsuitable amplifiers or other source devices
with DC voltage or unusually high hum voltage at the source device output).
4. Disassembled components
Do not disassemble any components from our equipment and do not send in any such individual parts until you have contacted Nubert Service and agreed on this measure.
5. What to do in the event of a warranty claim
If possible, pack the defective device in its original carton with a copy of the purchase receipt and a meaningful description of the defect. Please note our shipping instructions. Please contact the Nubert team for a return or refund:
• Telephone within Germany 0800-68 23 780 (toll free) • Phone international: +49 7171 92690-118 • Fax: +49 7171 92690-145 • E-mail: [email protected]

• Nubert electronic GmbH, Goethestr. 69, D-73525 Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany • Nubert electronic GmbH, Bahnhofstr. 111, D-73430 Aalen, Germany.
Shipping information: We recommend that you always keep the original carton, along with the protective foam inserts. Tip: Folding saves space! This is the only way to
ensure a safe return shipment in the worst-case scenario. If, in exceptional cases, you use a different packaging, it should protect professionally against the typical dangers
of shipping and have special protective cushions or equivalent protective devices. We would like to draw your attention to the fact that we accept no liability for damage
caused by improper packaging for which you are responsible!
Disposal and battery return
Environmental protection: Ingredients, e.g. chemical pollutants in old appliances, can damage the environment and health if stored improperly, in particular if they are
not shatterproof or disposed of properly by persons not authorised to do so. Especially in the case of illegal exports, there is no guarantee that the environment and human
health will be protected from damage. Old appliances can also contain recyclable raw materials, old appliances can be repaired or parts can be reused and thus considerably protect the environment. Old appliances must therefore not be disposed of with normal household waste or exported illegally. As an end user, you are legally obliged to
return or properly dispose of electrical equipment. Please note: You are responsible for the deletion of personal data on the waste equipment to be disposed of.
Batteries:
Ingredients, e.g. chemical type of batteries, can damage the environment and health if not stored and disposed of properly. At the same time, recyclable raw materials may
also be included. Batteries must therefore not be disposed of with normal household waste. As an end user, you are legally obliged to return used batteries. You can return
batteries after use to the seller or in the designated collection points (e.g. in public collection points in your municipality or in the trade) free of charge or send them back
free of charge. You can also send the batteries back to the seller free of charge by post, whereby any requirements of the dangerous goods law must be observed. The sale
at points of sale is limited to the quantities customary for end users for disposal as well as used batteries which the distributor carries or has carried in its product range.
• Battery return
The symbol with the crossed-out dustbin reminds you not to put batteries in the household waste.
Under this symbol you can also find the following symbols with the following meaning about ingredients:
Pb = battery contains more than 0.004 mass percent lead, Cd = battery contains more than 0.002 mass percent cadmium,
Hg = battery contains more than 0.0005 mass percent mercury.
• Old appliances
Electrical and electronic equipment is also marked with the crossed-out wheelie bin symbol. The symbol indicates that you,
as the owner of this appliance, may not dispose of it with your household waste (grey bin, yellow bin, organic waste bin, paper or glass).
You can send the device to the municipal collection points to be collected separately from unsorted municipal waste for reuse. Used batteries and accumulators which are
not enclosed by the waste equipment shall be separated from it at a collection point prior to delivery. You can also return old electrical appliances to us for return shipment.
We will provide you with a return label free of charge at [email protected] for this purpose.
You can also request this by calling +49 7171-92690118. Please then send the old device to the following address:
Nubert electronic GmbH, Goethestr. 69, D-73525 Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany. Please ensure that the old appliance is properly packaged for shipment so that breakage is
avoided as far as possible and mechanical compaction or breakage can be ruled out.
The acceptance of waste equipment may be refused if there is a risk to human health and safety due to contamination
