Speakers opinions

I would like to have some opinions regarding,the two speakers,wich i'm considering in the s/h market,to replace my very old but very well sounding B&W DM6.
The speakers are Gershman Avant Garde and Talon Raven2002.
They will be driven from a EAR 864B/Gryphon DM100,in a room of 17m2 quite treated.
I listen to all kind of music.
Thank you.

I wish i could do that.

I can try the Gershman with no problem,but no the Talon.
And another problem is,here in the UK they are not very well known,so resell them is not going to be an easy thing.
Wich of the two do you have?

i owned a pair of gershman avant gardes. the only reason i sold them was due to being bitten by the SET bug. the gershman's are fabulous speakers with the right amplifier. your gryphon should do an excellent job of controlling them.

their bass is deep and tight and their midrange is warm and full from what i recall. the highs could be a bit more extended, but that's really a judgement call. it's been a while since i heard a pair so my acoustic recollection might be rather spotty.

i haven't heard the avalon or the talon so i can't comment on either of them.

What about the new Sonogram vs Avantgarde?
