The New Amati G5 or Joseph Audio Pearl Graphene

I think you completely answered your question in your post… Sonus Faber Amati. My last three sets of speakers have been Sonus Faber, the most recent are Amati Traditional. They have a very unique and musical sound I have not heard in any other speakers… when properly mated with electronics they are simply stunning. You have the perfect electronics to power them (same as mine).

To me there is nothing more disappointing than detailed speakers that compromise on rhythm and pace for the sake of extra resolution.

I think Joseph’s speakers are as good as any Sonus Faber. They absolutely do not compromise on anything. As they say, different strokes for different folks. I’ve heard the Pearls a couple of times and I will take them over any Sonus Faber any time. 

Another big JA fan here.  Clinical?  No.  Natural sound and just reproduce what they’re fed.  Pearls would be my end-game speaker. 

@arafiq Gosh - I am so torn...! I love my JA dealer as well and would LOVE to drop this wad on his business... I'm going over there agin this week to give them another listen for sure. Thank you for your comments...!

@soix I will deffo give then another listen. Thank You for your notes..!

I am curious on what you decide because I think your choices are win-win.

I have listened to the Amanti G5 powered by Audio Research 160 stereo, Moon 860AV2 and Boulder's 300 watt amp.  I think they sound awesome.
