New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2

Just wanted to update my prior thread where this topic may have gotten lost.  As many of you may know by now, Joseph Audio has come out with the new Pulsar Graphene 2. This new iteration of the venerable Pulsars has a graphene coated magnesium midrange-woofer cone, and the drive motor, suspension system, etc., have been revamped. From what I have been told, the upgrade is pretty significant ... the sound is fuller and has greater ease, yet is very resolved. Jeff Joseph advises that an upgrade path will be available for existing owners of the Pulsars, too. Also, note that the price quoted in the Soundstage piece was in Canadian dollars ... Jeff informs me that the price in USD is $8,999 per pair. I am eager to hear the new Pulsars.

@prof is correct. I have not heard the new Pulsar2 Graphenes. Sorry for any confusion.

The BØRRESEN 01 is a great speaker. I think it is competitive with the Pulsar2 Graphene, more so than the LSA. You should decide for yourself.

Markalarsen the Borreson 01 is a $30k monitor comparing such divergent price points isnt a reletive comparison.

We heard the new Perspectives at Axpona and they were very good not blown away at $14k though.

They did produce a big sound for a compact speaker.

That’s my point: comparing the LSA against the Joseph Audio Pulsar is not a fair comparison. BTW, @audiotroy, you criticize everything you do not sell. Everyone here views you as a troll

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 correlation to how these speakers actually sound, only to how YOU hear them.
