Joseph Audio Pulsar – Original vs. Graphene opinions?

I heard Pulsars at THE Show some years ago. Very impressive bass for a 2-way monitor, although the metal Excel drivers are just too bright/fatiguing for my ears. I prefer the smooooooth Nextel Excel drivers.

Haven’t heard the Graphenes.

I have the Seas Excel Magnesium, Not bright at all, 
smoothhhhh and perfect, 
zero fatigue as they have zero resonances and zero coloration.
Have not heard the Nextel, but the design looks very nice.

Well, it may have been a bad demo room....or the XO is just not to my taste. They were seriously zingy and not smooth. I generally dislike metal tweeters, FWIW.

Hmm, just looked up the list price - for $10k...I dunno, I think the only reason to spend that much on 2-way bookshelves is if you can only accommodate small speakers.
