| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 Another nice show report on the Perspective2:https://parttimeaudiophile.com/2019/05/15/joseph-purist-alluxity-doshi-high-end-2019/ | |
| Speaker of the Century Award Goes To .... I am 65 and can still hear 18,000 Hz just fine. Are you positive? How did you determine this?That is extremely unusual.I'm 55 and have protected my ears. When I get audiology tests those giving me the tests usually express surprise, saying I hav... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 It looks like this website will be reviewing the new Perspective 2:https://www.monoandstereo.com/2019/05/alluxity-and-joseph-audio-at-munich.html | |
| Most “disappeared” speakers. Agreed that almost any, or most decently designed speakers can "disappear." Though some do it much more readily and successfully than others. | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 Minor note:I noticed that the original impedance spec for the Perspectives was a minimum of 6 ohms, the new Persepective2 spec is 5.5 ohms minimum.FWIW.... | |
| What are important features in a listening chair I had my listening sofa custom designed - deep seat and ottoman for long time comfort, backrest pillows up up to top of shoulders for good support, but no higher so the sound isn't interfered with around my head. It worked out great. | |
| Most “disappeared” speakers. Easy. MBL speakers.I got my 121s for a steal years ago, but that was because they were damaged in shipping to someone else so they were sold cheap.Nothing disappears/soundstages like the MBLs that I've heard.Then again, it's rare to find them that... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 Essentially JA has lost his hearing and wants you to hear like he does, and for the most part he’s accomplished it.You can’t possibly mean that the speakers I like has been decided by my reading what JA has written....can you?I mean, it couldn’t b... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 erik,Then how do you explain that JA found the Perspectives to be on the bright, unforgiving side, and his later measurements (taken afterwards) supported what he perceived?He correctly perceived what his measurements later showed. And he didn’t l... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 JA at Stereophile is the last person whose hearing I would trust.Disagree.I know dissing JA is a hobby horse of yours, but I find him to be quite perceptive.The measurements of the Perspectives showed characteristics (e.g. rising treble response, ... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 kenjit,You can often find John Atkinson of Stereophile describing various deficiencies or oddities he's hearing in a speaker, whether he's reviewing it, or explaining his measurements. JA expressed clear reservations about the performance of the... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 Great, thanks for letting us know darren.I get the feeling the new graphene models will have upped the popularity of the Joseph Pulsar/Perspective speakers.I'm really intrigued by what JA at Stereophile will have to say about the new Perspectives ... | |
| Can one ever be "done" in this hobby? Maybe if someone wants to be "done" spending money on their system they should do something like a Clockwork Orange retraining therapy.Commit to playing only Michael Bolton, Wang Chung, and Mumble Rap only for a month. Your interest in and spend... | |
| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music Speaker advice for listening to Blues musicSure.Best speakers for the Blues are unplugged.Sorry...had to....not a fan of Blues....;-) | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 Thanks Mark.Certainly a promising show report!Note that stereophile’s editor mentioned in the comments section that John Atkinson has a follow up review of the Perspective2 coming in the July issue. I’ll be VERY interested in that review as his ea... |
