Joseph Audio Perspective next steps


Greetings,
Interested in hearing from those who have previously owned Joseph Audio Perspective speakers. Which speaker(s) did you move to from the Perspective, both positive and neg experiences appreciated. Amp(s) and preamp used would be helpful.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

A dealer I am in touch with told me that the Perspective 2's would be too small for my listening room, which is 26 x 15 x 8. I cannot see my way to the Pearls.

What do others think about this comment by the dealer? I suspect they just don't have the Perspectives and are trying to up-sell me or make me go away.

@prof Any thoughts?

Thanks for chiming in. This dealer [I'll omit their name and place of business] said that he didn't think the Perspective2's were "a good choice for your large room." I asked why and told him that Jeff Joseph himself (in an email to me) had said they would be fine. He replied, "Every company thinks all their equipment will work fine. Sometimes they are wrong. It's a very fine very small speaker. Very small."

I don't see my room as particularly large nor the Perspectives as particularly small. This sounds to me like disinformation. I have tried the Ascend towers, the Focal 936, the Martin Logan Motion 60's in this room and they filled the room with sound. 

My sense is that this dealer is trying to either up-sell me or just discourage me from bothering him.
