When I say mostly, I don't mean >50%. Of all the music genres, percentage wise, rock is the highest. Maybe 40%? Then the other 60% is a mixture of everything else. At least that is my experience.
Have you run frequency sweeps on them? Pics and details of setups?Who…. ME?
I think possibly the best overall sound I’ve had my room was with my Thiel 3.7 speakers. They just seemed to do it all so well, combine so many of the attributes I care about . Still, I prefer some aspects of my Joseph Perspectives (and even some aspects of my Thiel 2.7s).
But in the end, the reason I wouldn’t keep the 3.7s is the reason I sold them - too big.
So of all the loudspeakers I’ve owned, my favourites have been the Thiel 3.7 , Thiel 2.7 and Joseph Perspectives, and I still own the 2.7s and Josephs, so I guess it would come down to choosing between the Thiels and Josephs. That’s such a tough pick that I couldn’t make the choice which is why I kept both.
The Thiels sound tonally convincing, sound a bit bigger than the Josephs, and they have a thicker, denser more corporeal presentation than the Joseph speakers.
The Joseph speakers do an incredible disappearing act, and sound summit more refined especially in the highs, and tonally/timbrally they are the most gorgeous speakers I’ve heard in that respect. I find the mesmerizing. Plus the Joseph speakers sound quite fun and punchy for plenty of music (both speakers play all types of music wonderfully).
I think if I absolutely had to choose one, it would be the Joseph speakers at this point.
I find their level of refinement just so compelling, and they are smaller and slimmer so they take up less room.
Not sure if you have the graphene or the magnesium woofers in your Joseph's, I have the 6" magnesium woofers in one of my Salks and couldn't be happier with their sound and extension. I actually enjoy them more than my other Salk speaker with the Eaton ARCOSIA 4" mid-range. I just love the sound from the Seas woofers (and Dennis Murphy's crossover work around their breakup)Who….

dr. who?
but does it sound good?Forgot to post this picture.
Sometimes you really have to wonder if some people who really convinced themselves of their own made up pseudoscience.
Someone please explain this half exposed tweeter and the science behind it.

Not that I remember. The thing with shows is that, you also can't judge how bad a speaker really is, unless it is just out right terrible.
Manger offered something like that (covering half of the MSW, but vertically dividing, and transparent PVC or similar stuff). Did'nt get what it was good for.
That configuration places the tweeter as close as it can be to the intersection of two boundaries, as we can see.
they sounded very nice on all music played thru them
If they sounded well, placed into the corner as in the picture, they are indolescent to placement, at least.
