    Well all three pairs are in my posession!

    These Joseph audio speakers... scream quality. Their build quality is intense. The enclosure can be filled with sand for god sakes! lol They weigh a ton too - the drivers are nice looking as well...

    I am so beat but so far the Joseph speakers look freakin cool - cant wait to plug them up to experience this "infinite slope" crossover

    So where do you buy Audiophile sand? Does the Hawaiian black basalt sand sound better than the Northwest Florida pure quartz sand or are you going to go with home grown Outer Banks sand?

    All joking aside some nice looking speakers there. Can't wait to hear the reviews!

    The sand needed is really simple to choose: Play Sand.

    I have heard the Joseph Pulsars on some Manley amps at Holm Audio here in town. OMG for the size of them ( small) just stunning sound.

    Congrats on them!

    I don't blame you for being excited on them. Sometimes things don't look "cool" but the sound is amazing. My jm labs fall into that catagory. they dont look like much but when you hear them WOW.

    If they sound anything like the pulsar's you are going to love them.

    Then why sell them?
    A friend of mine in Germany loves Rogers speakers. He was ones like the 1a but bigger. I cant for the life of me remember the model number. I can shoot him an email to find out for you for your next quest.

    I dont need them, no room for them.

    These are pretty much speakers I obtained to potentially mod - resale... Rogers are worth more unmodded.

    If they sit around long enough I might reveneer them.

    Got ya. The 2 sets of Rodgers I heard in the past I couldnt think of anything that they needed outside of a sub for extream low but for most music, you wouldnt need it. They were clean and detailed.

    They don't seem to come up too oten here in the USA.

    You are right about that. They are smooth, detailed and refined. They could easily compete with high end speakers of today without issue.

    I also heard those speakers at Holm's Audio, very impressive for their size.
    Also great bass for a small speaker.

    Would I ever love to do a one-on-one with those and some Proac Speakers. Talk about a contest, especially the upper end.
