The Joseph speakers are slim floorstanding speakers that cast a walk-in-to-it soundstage like the AP speakers, but have a more pure tone and also, for their size, kick more *ss than the AP.   As John Atkinson put it in his review of the Joseph Perspective Graphene floorstanders:

 

"When the kickdrum was doubled with synth dropped-bass notes, I was astonished by how much clean, low-frequency energy four 5.5" woofers could pump into my room.

With the Perspective2's combination of clean dynamics and rich, well-defined low frequencies, orchestral music was well-served. The big tune at the start of the first movement of Elgar's Symphony No.1 (Sir Adrian Boult conducting the LPO, of course, 16/44.1k ALAC files ripped from CD, EMI Classics 64013), with its pulsing bass line, sent shivers down my spine."

 

I had Audio Physic Scorpio Ii.   Fantastic little floor standing speaker.   

Virgo 25 is the pair I own. 

 

You should post the speakers you own currently and in the past for a better response profile.

 

I bought these years after hearing them at the RMAF where I was very impressed by them. After several more years of listening to the Focal Range into Grande Utopia (not that I can afford it, but in a local amplifier manufacturer's listening room), Magicos, B&Ws of several ranges into 801s, PMC, and ProAc 2.5 which I owned for nearly 20 years, the Audio Physic speakers stand up to their billing: "No loss of fine detail." 

 

Imaging, control of frequency, fine representation of instruments, natural sound are all available. They have a sound that I tend to prefer which is the British design despite their German heritage.

 

Beautiful speakers as well. Again, what do you own?

Mnteer,

Today was the day I planned to audition the AudioPhysics Speakers

but I had to postpone the trip as my wife is still waiting to get home.

Casualty of storms. So I had dog duty.

The responses have been very helpful, thanks!

The plan was to use these in my office with a 70's Luxman Receiver

that actually puts out good sound.
