Speaking of Joseph Audio Pearls


Heard these at the NY show and have been having trouble auditioning since. Are they available?
I'm also interested in opinions as to whether they'd be a good upgrade to Thiel cs6's. My room is 13.5 x 18.5. Amp is cj premier 8 in triode - 140/channel. I'm also considering Vandersteen 5's.
Any opinions as to whether the Pearls (assuming I can find them) would be better than the Vandy's? Other suggestions.

You could try ATC active 100's they are 15K and include amps for each driver and external crossover. Also Talon makes some highly regarded speakers but I have not heard them.
I sort of doubt other speakers you mention would be a significant upgrade over Thiel 6's. Actually I can't think of any speaker that would be a big improvement over the 6's. Maybe other can though.
