New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2

Sciencecop first many people commented favorably on the Personas which were being driven by a $4k integrated amp vs a huge stack of much more expensive Rowland gear on the Perspectives willing to beat the gear alone cost $50k driving a $14k speaker not a realistic package now is it?

The 3F sounded really impressive considering the price of  $14k for botb the speakers and electronics.  We could have gotten better sound with warmer cables AQ does not a good match make with these components. 

Lets see Troll eh?

We mentioned many rooms which sounded excellent with products we dont  seIl including Wilson audio, Alta, Avante Garde, Golden Ear, Focal to name a few. 

So kind of looks like we call em like we hear em.

Yes, troll who tries to divert from the OP’s topic to discuss products he sells. Look at the Audio Doctor’s other posts.

If a tree falls in the forest and @prof hears it, is the sound fictional at best?

what audiophiles hear can certainly be fictional in some cases. Consider the high end cable scam thats been going on for many years. No evidence that cables make any difference and no plausible explanation why they would. Despite that, audiophiles will happily rationalise spending thousands on cables.

Even dealers cannot fail to be duped to believe such hogwash.

A dealer i recently visited told me that there was not enough bass because he was using the wrong speaker cables.

There should be laws to protect consumers from such hogwash.

audiotroy,

I don't begrudge your opinion about the Perspectives, or the Paradigm speakers at all.  If the Paradigms sound better to you, even with cheaper amps, awesome!  I found the Paradigm Personas to be a really excellent speaker.

But in the same vein of comparing gear combinations:  I have an old pair of Thiel 02 speakers, which cost just a few hundred bucks circa early 80s, and hooked up to a lil old Eico HF81, that meager combo gives me more listening pleasure than I got from the Paradigms.

Horses for courses...
(I'm not saying that sound is purely subjective of course - we could still talk in more objective terms about which speaker is more full range, has higher resolution, different dispersion, smoother frequency response etc.But when it comes to personal evaluations, what "beats" some other gear is pretty subjective).

Dream on marklarsen many of our posts have nothing to do with products we sell. 

You seem hurt is it because you own a speaker that we didnt proclaim was amazing? Willing to bet you wouldnt be so negative if we thought they were amazing.

Kenjit dream on cables are hardily a scam way too many people hear the difference and certain cables will bring out more or less treble and bass.
