New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2

Just wanted to update my prior thread where this topic may have gotten lost.  As many of you may know by now, Joseph Audio has come out with the new Pulsar Graphene 2. This new iteration of the venerable Pulsars has a graphene coated magnesium midrange-woofer cone, and the drive motor, suspension system, etc., have been revamped. From what I have been told, the upgrade is pretty significant ... the sound is fuller and has greater ease, yet is very resolved. Jeff Joseph advises that an upgrade path will be available for existing owners of the Pulsars, too. Also, note that the price quoted in the Soundstage piece was in Canadian dollars ... Jeff informs me that the price in USD is $8,999 per pair. I am eager to hear the new Pulsars.

Lots of really great information on JAP2, well done Prof and the rest!  I fell in love with these speaks at CAF last Nov.  Despite a challenging listening environment in a tiny room this speaker turned heads, certainly mine.

I’ve always like JA speakers but have only heard them at the CAF - might be my next speakers but I need to spend some time with them and no dealer in my area.  Like some of you guys I have Thiel CS6 in my system and have been a Thiel guy for 20 years.

Has anyone compared the prospective 2 and the pearl 20.20 with an audition?   I heard the former at CAF and fell in love.   They might be the only speaker that can pry my Thiel 3.6 and cs6 out of my system.

i have a large room and although the prospectives blew me away they were in a very small room.  Wondering what the step up factor would be with the Pearls.

Not necessarily moniker too long to copy.
With a little more experience with high end equipment you will understand, especially with speakers.  But thanks for the worthless feedback.
