Gershman Grande Avant Garde


Anybody here have any experience with these and what it will take power wise to get the most out of them? Thanks in advance

You could call the company (talked to them yesterday about something else and they are very nice), or there are reviews on youtube by David and Jay (both from about a year ago).  Listed as 89dB sensitivity but my hunch is you'll be best off with higher power better amp.

Some site says it is 89dB, but I think 87dB is correct.

I run it with Plinius SA102 class A 125WPC 

Power wise, I would suggest at least 100WPC, preferably a high quality 200WPC amp will do justice. On my setup, I could directly compare Gershman with Harbeth Compact 7ES-7 and Tyler Linbrook Signature Systems. Gershman costs over two times, and it clearly sounds better than those. I like its small size and light (?) weight.
