@@_Chev_Chelios Hey, Of course many companies can place 1 instrument and play it back in the same space. That was not the point, the point is that they have a lot of instruments and recording space readily available to them. I'm sorry you found it absurd. If you are under the impression that I got paid to say nice things... please check how we work on our "about us" section on our channel. I am sure that there are companies out there that I missed that do have the ability to do the studio thingy but that's why I said "to this extent. to my knowledge." It is just cool and reassuring to know that they have a real instrument in the same space as the "reference" point... it doesn't tell you much about how they would sound at the end of the day. Keep safe bud ! rock on

Having owned three different Gershman models with the last being the Grande Avant Garde. I can say their goal of providing a musical experience is their best achievement. I witnessed listeners of my system emotionally moved, saying to me they have never heard music reproduced so beautifully. Gershman’s transcend to category of speaker to become a fine musical instrument. They are worthy of anyone who appreciates being totally immersed in accurately reproduced music.

I wanted to thank you for doing this review on the Gershman Acoustics Grand Avant Garde. I have been looking for my perfect pair of speakers for years, auditioning countless speakers. My budget was up to 25K. My friend was very impressed by your review, he knew I was looking for my perfect pair and sent me a link to your review on the Gershmans Grands. I have decided to audition a pair and....Oh Boy!!! I fell in love and got them on the spot!! I got everything I was looking for and more. Spending so much time listening to my music again, my dream came true. I must apologize, I was a bit skeptical because of your young look but, you got it right ! A wonderful job, keep up the good work.

@ks4545 4 года назад

Heard them at a show several years ago. Fantastic. They were out of my price range and then I almost bought a demo pair months later. But it would have been a sight unseen deal and I was newer to the hifi world back then and very wary of spending that much on a speaker from a company I'd never heard of on a speaker I only heard at a show. I regret I didn't have more ability to really check them out back then. Wonderful sounding speaker from what I heard. They remain "on the list."

Just discovered your channel and I’m really enjoying it. Seen ya first over on Guttenbergs. That’s a very interesting speaker. I really like it: the innovations on it are really cool. I must say that I am not usually a fan of full-range speakers tho for one reason; the spot where the speakers go sometimes are not the best place in the room for a sub-woofer. I prefer a separate sub-woofers. Having said that I’d love to hear these.

@mesonto 4 года назад

Great review. When/if c-19 is done I will go audition a pair. Very interested in the highs though... (Focal has permanently convinced me the most speakers can't do highs properly). Nonetheless I have been curious about this brand of speakers for such a long time. And personally I think they look absolutely fantastic.

Sounds like they are asking more then that now which is too bad because I thought that they offered a lot of value at that price.

@chrisvinicombe9947 4 года назад

Well you could always bi-amp them to circumvent the low volume caveat. Would probably benifit louder volumes too 💪😀

@ihcho 4 года назад

My Gershman Avant Garde would appreciate more power from my 150W Audio Research amp and 125W Plinius amp. I would agree that 200 Watt or even 300 Watt may serve much better. Gershman would need not only big power, but clean and good power. Cheap digital amps would not do justice on this speaker. I also agree that my Gershman does not sound much better than my Harbeth 7ES-3 at low volume level. At low volume level, actually Harbeth sounds just as good. But at high sound level, there is no comparison. Gershman is a clear winner. I normally listen at 2 o'clock volume level on my Primaluna Dialog Premium preamp.

@brucermarino 4 года назад

Great job, as usual! Two questions, if I may. (1) Does not the displacement in distance to the listener, for example, a tweeter and a midrange, fundamentally affect the frequency response because of the way their signals will combine constructively or destructively around the crossover frequency? (2) On the dispersion of subwoofers, given that dispersion is largely a function of the size of the radiating surface compared to the wavelength of the frequency being radiated and even at 50 cycles per second (Hz) the wavelength is 22.6 ft or 6.88 m, can dispersion be an issue. Again, thanks for you excellent reviews!

@Techman2ch 4 года назад

The way you have described these speakers is awesome! It's exactly what I'd prefer yet, I simply can't afford them.. I was looking into the DI's with the upgrade. Would u say its alot like a super double impact? Sean at Zero Fidelity mentioned the amazingly quick and detailed bass of the DI he revisted and the slightly rolled off highs yet full sounding. I like u want to listen to average music, movies and not be killed by my purchase yet still impressed.

@ronlevine8873 Год назад

I saw and heard these at the NY Audio Fair this summer. A real surprise: they were the smallest of the floor standing speakers that I saw there, but easily were the best when it came to frequency range, output and imaging. I agree that their appearance is rather unique: they look like a medieval R2D2 but they take up very little real estate given what they deliver, which is a big plus for a city apartment. What they are not: these won't work with a low-wattage tube setup and, as Jay says, they're not great at low volumes. (So maybe they're not perfect for a city apartment after all!)

I understand no perfect speakers and each has a listening preferences and priorities based on the music they like. Personally I listen to jazz, guitar, saxophone; vocals; classical piano, violin, a bit of opera. The Sabrina X is also one of my favourite speakers but I m not able to do side by side comparison but I think you at least can spend a lot of time with both speakers. My priority is the midrange, based on this and my music preferences and if value or resale value or price is not in the equation, which speaker is best suitable for me. Thank you in advance.

@@vittoriomartinidonati65 well I wanted to keep it and will see if I can buy one soon. But priority is given to consumers obviously. Not fair for me to cut in line

And who gave it the award? You need to hear Adam Audio S series. Granted, it's a recording studio product but they keep receiving countless industry Awards for making recording studios sound amazing. And they have built-in amps. You just need to hear them. Also, a properly designed ported can be just as 'flat' as sealed but thje enclosure done properly eliminates the backwave through the cone thing you mentioned. But that platform is a gimmick. Sorry. You have to hear how clean but how silky the Adams are. And once you go ribbons, you will never go back to dome.

I think PS Audio has a similar set up. I've seen in some videos where Paul talks about the studio they have in the same building and where they design and build there speakers.

@Jayiyagi 4 года назад

oh I am sure that there are companies out there that I missed that do have the ability to do the studio thingy but that's why I said "to this extent. to my knowledge." It is just cool and reassuring to know that they have a real instrument in the same space as the "reference" point... it doesn't tell you much about how they would sound at the end of the day.

@dakken74 4 года назад

@@Jayiyagi definitely gives a person confidence when purchasing an item from them knowing that they have the ability to compare there speakers to the live instrument it's supposed to be reproducing.

@IliyaOsnovikov 3 года назад

That hollow speaker base along with those 4 ports just looks like a Helmholz resonator cavity. It's probably used to attenuate some booming bass frequency. I am not sure if that's something compelely new.

Studio and high end audio ... ever heard about TAD ? Or ARC ? This is not unique to this company. You could even argue that B&W is a company that comes from studio equipment. There are so many more ...

Correct 👍🏾 my European amplifier I just recently bought from a little known under the radar company was designed by two brothers. That previously worked for years doing the instillation and implementation of audio equipment for various European radio stations. They saw that the speakers, equipment used by even big radio stations wasn't as good as it could be so they founded their own HiFi company. Focusing on accurate sound quality for their speakers and now their amplifiers.

Why do they use a sloped baffle instead of a stepped baffle with treatments? Sloped means you are slightly off axis from the drivers. Psychological things :)

@datdudeinred 4 года назад

You should get Tekton Ulfberht & pure audio project quintet15 4x15in speakers to compare they are regarded as world's best for under 100k but costs 10k pair max. Also I'm no one to recommend you something ofc you kn better but i would recommend you to try those before buying these.. As too many people lose them.

the grill is bad. it looks dated. go back 50 yrs & check the screen of the radio, it looks similar. so please consider changing the design of the grill or at least give options for another simple grill with cloth or silk.

Subjectively, those grills look terrible to me. Others may find them differently. 😉

4:37 Umm... It looks to me like you have the bridging plates in the wrong way. They look like the positive and negative sides are touching, surly they don't go on that way and should be switched around so the metal part goes on the outer edges so they are not touching. The way It's hooked up looks like it will short out the system straight away.
