Upgrade from Joseph Audio Pearls?


I've seen lots of recommendations for people to upgrade to used Joseph Audio Pearl Graphene. I'm curious--what are the people selling these speakers upgrading to?

@mdalton   You were specifically addressing my interaction with audiotroy and the nature of his comment, not the thread in general and in that context my opinion of the Pearls is not the main point.  Now you randomly switch it back to the original thread, which is something totally different and then yes my opinion of the Pearls is relevant.  Again, several people here have supported me, and you once again find yourself on an island in the minority just like when you denied the benefits of pricier streamers.  When you’re constantly in the minority here at some point you have to realize it’s you.  I’m done. 

Audiotroy has no morals it's his MO. 

Please explain your claim. He has excellent user feedback here on A'gon, which you can see here.

I have to chime in here regarding these attacks on Audiotroy's "morals." I've had a one on one conversation with with him in the past regarding a potential speaker replacement/upgrade. He was unbiased in his comments and told me to keep the speakers, I wasn't going to improve on them in my price range he said. He then discussed what he thought was the correct path forward (amp/preamp/etc.) and made several suggestions which proved to be accurate. Not once did he push what he was selling in a manner that demeaned other brands. Like everyone, he has his preferences and he explained those clearly.

Based upon what I've read in this thread Soix overreacted to Audiotroy's fairly benign comments.  Is there something else going on here?  Carry over from another thread possibly?
