@thr1961 my speaker cables are also terminated in banana plugs on both ends. I’m using Cardas banana to spade converters. They work very well and are high quality.
Joseph Audio: Perspectives and Pearls
There have been several recent threads that have included both of these speaker. However, much of the discussion has focused on the Perspectives, with a number of positive reviews. I am quite interested in hearing them, but am also seriously considering the far more expensive Pearls as well.
I am wondering if anyone has done a direct comparison or has upgraded from the Perspectives to the Pearls? I am specifically interested if the Pearls might overwhelm my room (13 X 18 with 9 foot ceilings) which is not a space dedicated to my system (it's my living room.)
Thanks in advance for your experiences with these two speakers.

I am looking at an interesting trial offering from Transparent where you can test drive speaker cables and interconnects. Someone on a different thread who has the same ARC gear shared his findings that Transparent seemed to have the best synergy with ARC. We shall see... |

@prof can you tell us about how long it will take for your perspectives to be upgraded to the Graphene 2 version? And the cost? Might have found an older version at a significant savings. |
