Has anyone spent a lot of time with Joseph Audio Perspective 2 Graphenes?

My current speakers are B&W 803 Nautilus, from the last century. I have a somewhat demanding room - I have tried Maggie 3.7i's, which worked great for me in another environment but were overly massive in this one, which is a narrow and deep space. The speakers are on the narrow axis. I then when to KEF LS50's, which I love in a smaller space, but the didn't really project out in this one. I sold the Maggies and I have the KEFs in my office, where they are perfect.

Speakers, to my mind, are a component with wide variations and also very dependent upon individual tastes, so I think extended audition is very important, not an easy thing to do with the way dealers operate these days, at least around here in the SF Bay Area, and now just about impossible.

I think something of the size of the B&Ws is about the right form factor. I have heard Joseph Audio speakers twice at shows (there is no local dealer, but there is a rep) - the first time was in a small room with the Pulsars, and Jeff Joseph himself at the wheel. Nice guy. The second time was in a larger room with Zesto gear driving the Perspective 2 Graphenes. I spent more time in that room than anywhere else and was really impressed (as I was with the Pulsars), and wanted to see if there were any long-time owners who could comment. I do worry that the 36" height might be a tad short for projection into the room. The SabrinaX, another one I might consider, is a full 6" taller. (I had a 3 hour audition of the predecessor Sabrina once, and loved them as well).
