Joseph Audio Perspective2 loudspeaker
Five years ago, in our July 2014 issue,1 I reviewed Joseph Audio’s2 Perspective loudspeaker, a reflex-loaded, floorstanding, two-way design with two SEAS Excel magnesium-alloy–cone woofers and a SEAS Excel Millennium tweeter using a 1" Sonatex, impregnated-fabric dome. I summed up my thoughts by writing: “The Perspective is definitely a full-range loudspeaker, with impressive low-frequency extension and weight for a speaker with a relatively small footprint. It is also one of the more beautiful-looking speakers I have had in my listening room…. I can confidently recommend the Joseph Perspective. It’s a lot of high-performance loudspeaker in a beautiful, modest-sized, domestically appealing package.”
Five years to the day after Jeff Joseph had set up those Perspectives in my room, he was again the result is a light, stiff diaphragm that is also well-damped—exactly what is required for a woofer cone.
