| World's Best Speakers For 2021 ? I had Apogee Diva. That was the best speakers I’ve heard, but it suffered a bit of buzzing and my room size is a bit small for the speakers, so I sold it. Then I got Gershman Grande Avant Garde. Wilson Puppy was under consideration, but I chose G... | |
| Best light weight full range speaker recommendation. re Gershman Grand Avant Garde I seriously could not come up with anything to make that speaker uglier, aesthetically speaking My wife likes its appearance much better than plain looking rectangular speakers.
