I like Joseph audio but they're nowhere near as good as the monitor audio platinum 200 generation 2 or anything in the platinum range. The top end isn't as natural and open sounding with the soft dome tweeter as the AMT tweeter is. And the bass is not as fast and articulate. And the sound stage is not as three-dimensional.

havoc, Having heard the Monitor Audio platinum speakers, I'd have to disagree with your assessment. For me the Monitor Audio Platinum series, while very vivid sounding, sound bleached and artificial for lots of content. (Though put just the right audiophile track on and they shine). And I've never heard the Platinums do as great a "disappearing" and 3 dimensional presentation as the Joseph speakers. That is one of the JA strong points remarked upon by the vast majority of listeners. But, hey, opinions are subjective and my "natural" may not be your "natural." |
If you don't have a big room then these Pulsar 2's are the real bargain here ! These speakers are a perfect match with Pure Audio Class A gear ! https://parttimeaudiophile.com/2020/08/06/joseph-audio-pulsar2-graphene-loudspeakers-review/ |
A Dealer in Canada that sells Acapella Horns and Vivid Audio and Cube Audio and Joseph Audio speakers and their favorite speakers are the Joseph Audio Perspective 2’s ! Who is that? FWIW: The proprietor of Executive Stereo, selling Vivid, Spendor D-series, Martin Logan and others, says the Joseph Perspectives are his favorite speaker. |
