| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 @markalarsenDo you have the Talk Talk album Colour Of Spring?If so try playing the first track. It’s one of my test tracks for speakers. The production and sound quality is amazing and that track is great as it starts with a pristine drum beat and... | |
| Axpona reviewers perceptions and reality avanti1960I believe I saw your similar comment on the Stereophile site.I generally agree with the response you received from Stereophile.Many readers take Stereophile reviewers opinions to have some weight and influence (in fact, obviously they ha... | |
| Thiel Owners congrats bighempin!I had the 3.7s for a few years and when I tried to replace them I listened to a long list of new speakers. I didn’t find anything that could out-compete the 3.7s. | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 djones51,Thanks for the info.I think a speaker can sound "subjectively" more sensitive for a number of reasons. One could simply be slightly altering the tonal balance with a fuller bass, so it can sound more complete at slightly lower volume leve... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 If anyone is actually in touch with Jeff Joseph, it would be great to get some confirmation, or disinformation as to whether the sensitivity of the speaker has changed. Mark suggests from his experience the 2 version seems a bit more sensitive. ... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 mark,Cool.If I were to list anything in the "con" vs "pro" side of the ledger, based on my various auditions of the Perspectives at stores and my home, and comparing to other speakers I like, I'd say:1. The bass.Aside from the beautiful mids and ... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 As I mentioned, I just came from listening to music on my friend’s system. He has a really excellent and neutral-sounding pair of monitors, and a killer front end source. The clarity and detail is really amazing.I think it would tick many of the b... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 That all sounds like good stuff goldprintaudio! | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 I fully respect you going by your own experience Mark.In my experience, I've heard the Perspectives hooked up to various very expensive amps with wildly expensive cabling etc. Yet I thought they sounded better when I had them in my system for aud... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 @goldprintaudioI’m curious too. How would you describe the sonic difference in the new models? | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 What exactly is the matter with you nyaudio? | |
| Your favourite Rush albums? I can’t take Geddy’s singing from the last...what is it...10, 15 years?...where he’d lost his old vocal dexterity and no longer does the high notes. Even within his lowered vocal range I found his voice to be a hard-to-listen-to strained gargle. E... | |
| The under appreciated impedance curve The whole speaker/amp impedance stuff drives me mad. I just seem to have a brain that doesn’t easily grasp electrical theory (not to mention I’ve never studied it).I know the general principle for speakers seems to be: wild impedance swings - espe... | |
| DIY is not all about saving money erik, Your reasons for DIY make tons of sense.As it happens, it’s not where I prefer to put my own time and efforts.Maybe it’s laziness, or the amount of time I work or whatever, but when I have time to relax, listening to music (or watching a mov... | |
| Axpona 2019 Audiotroy,It can also be noted that while it is absolutely true room acoustics are very important in getting the best out of any speaker set up, it’s also been shown via the research from the NRC, Floyd Toole etc that room influences are most impo... |
