| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 If a tree falls in the forest and @prof hears it, is the sound fictional at best? Not if you can measure it ;) | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 BTW, @audiotroy, you criticize everything you do not sell. Everyone here views you as a troll +10. I listen to the Persona at AXPONA, so bright and coarse (just like they measure, imagine that). Couldn’t stay in the room for more then 30 sec. | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 I have a long thread detailing the sound I heard from many speakers, including particularly detailed descriptions of Joseph and Devore (and Magico A3 btw) speakers that I've auditioned. Like I said, your descriptions are fictional at best. No c... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 Keep in mind that to many the sound they are “hearing” is entirely in their heads. No relationship, whatsoever, to the way some components actually sound. Beware of judgments like “push my buttons“ or “foot tapping” or even the holy word “musicali... | |
| New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2 Also, kind of interesting that Seas makes a lot of woofers for Magico, SEAS does not make any drivers for Magico, I know you consider yourself an expert, but one look at SEAS offering will make you realize that their drivers are built on a comple... | |
| Thoughts about the Magico A3, Revel Salon2/ Studio2 Both speakers “sound power” are down ~15 dB at 20K ("listening window" on the Revel actually deviate down more then the Magico), they just, conveniently, gave the Revel graphs more smoothing, so it is harder to see (Note the Magico scale is a bit ... | |
| Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK... Nice, how did you get these measurements?Both Magico and Ravel measurements are exemplary. The Persona is a trainwreck. I am surprise that Paradigm, which typically produce solid engineered products will build such a turd. | |
| Paradigm Persona series @audiotroy As per Sciencecop saying we never heard really expensive Magico’s at Goodwins You are putting words in my mouth, have a bit of decency, will you.Own your BS, although I know it is hard for you to keep up with all of them. | |
| Paradigm Persona series Heard the Magico M series at Goodwins and was not impressed for a $180k It would be hard to be impressed given the fact that Goodwin does not have the $180K M...Regardless, these Persona cant be tamed, their aggressiveness brittle sound comes from... | |
| Paradigm Persona series This has nothing to do with being flat or rolled off. The FR with wild swings of -/+ 5 dB indicates some serious issues, most likely from the midrange breakup area (5-8Khz). Also, unacceptable THD in the upper mid. | |
| Paradigm Persona series I will say that the Persona mid/highs measurements in the NRC are horrendous. A beryllium midrange, if not damped will ring like a bell.These speaker are bright and coarse, subjectively and objectively. This may be the right speakers for the agi... | |
| Magico A3 vs S3 MKI @shadorne The only thing that should differ between recordings or styles of music is how loud it needs to be played to sound its absolute best. So are you saying that there are no bad recordings??Unfortunately, the better the speakers the more it... | |
| Magicos are chesty @erik_squires Frequency response plots are hard to come buy, but the two I have seen kind of back me up.Not really, these are all gated measurements. Once put in a room, they will have SPL boost below 200hz due to room gain and doubling up on dire... | |
| Magicos are chesty Nothing says music like the sound of aluminum vibrating..... Sure, that is why airplanes are made of MDF... | |
| Why so many wilson alexias for sale @sfischer1 +1However, some of us do have expensive system(s), so in this particular situation, without commenting on the Wilson sound, I can’t help but wonder about the business model. A lot of these alexias have been online for way over six m... |
