New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2

I listened to them at Axpona. Granted, the room was crowded and I had to stand in a less than ideal spot (right next to Jeff Joseph). I had no idea the drivers were so small-five inch or so? The sound was good but after five minutes I identified the general nature at play-highly detailed and precise-what I call "hi fi". They are beautiful and WAF friendly with a relatively small footprint and I can fully understand the praise, they are just not my cup of tea from what I heard in Schaumburg. Listening to these brought to mind some relative newbie on an audio forum who once asked "what speaker sounds like laser beams?". IMHO there are speakers that appeal to the head and those that appeal to the heart. I don't care for speakers that mimic headphones. I prefer headphones that mimic loudspeakers. 
If I may elaborate just a bit more, I believe that the Volti Audio Rival room was at the other end of the spectrum and also not in my sweet spot though I again recognize the appeal. This room was crowded both times I entered and the Volti Rivals being played had a prominent "Sold" sign on them. They were champions of texture and tone but were a bit plodding and slow, and just a shade dull. And though beautiful to look at, they were certainly not svelte or likely to meet approval by a non-audiophile spouse. 

Prof;
Just one little tweak with a smile;
I don't love my Devores. I think they are sorely missing midrange magic and precise imaging. In my case, while they are quiet despite my high power amp (ARC Ref 150SE), I feel that they would be better suited to a lower power amp. At Axpona, the 0/96's were much more impressive than the 0/93's, but the O/96's were being powered by Wavac amplification and a Nagra preamp.  Priced Wavac gear? Even then, the O/96's have more low-end grunt and overall kick. They still didn't offer a sumptuous midrange even with Wavac/Nagra. 
I would say that I am content. The O/93's are a good match for my smallish room. Perhaps I would like JA Perspectives more. 

To an extent I agree. I did not care for what the guy was playing in the room with O/96's but on the other hand, he spied that I had a record in my hand-that I had just purchased from Vincent Belanger-and asked if I wanted him to put it on. 
It's a two way street. If you don't like the music being played it is up to you to ask for something you like to be played. If you do and they say "no", than the criticism is fair. 
We all at this point know how the game is played. Some-but not all-vendors want to control the music so that the greatest possible number of people will stay in the room and so that their gear sounds good. No wonder Diana Krall and SRV are so popular-they do no tax the system. You won't hear large complex ensembles or classical music or even piano much because they lack the wide audience and they are more difficult to recreate. 
What surprises me is the lack of male voices being played. Richard Thompson's rich baritone would be a prime example. 
I don't mean to derail this JA Pulsar Graphene thread. 

Like I said, your descriptions are fictional at best. No correlation to how these speakers actually sound, only to how YOU hear them.

Sciencecop reminds me of someone else that was posting up until recently-someone who had relatively few posts and had never started a discussion but instead would just pop in and write extremely offensive put-downs that defied common sense. I suspect they are one and the same person. 
"No correlation to how these speakers actually sound". That is rich. Following your [lack of] logic, how does anyone know how they actually sound? "Fictional at best" is making the most hyperbolic statement one could possibly make squared. Utter pablum not worthy of further response.
