Any Gershman speaker owners

I have a pair of Gershman Avant Garde RX 20's in my office system. They
really sound well-balanced with great bass and look great. Never had
any problems so I cannot comment on the company. I use an Accuphase
integrated with it now. When they were at home I used a Mcintosh 352
amp with a Mcintosh C42 preamp.

I have owned the X-1 monitors along with the Sw-1 subwoofer pedestals since around 2000. I had to import both and for what I have heard from other speakers, they sound a little bit warm, great with jazz. The monitor themselves have great low end extension on their own, but with the subwoofers, they sound full extended and can overload a small room with low end if placed near walls. My Gershmans are really fast, faster and have better resolution than all the competition around their price range....X-1s $1600-2K and with the subwoofers, $3500 can compete everything around 4K. No doubt. They love tubes and SS. The only drawback with Gershman, are their low availability and their marked up prices in the US. I imported mine from Canada when they were reviewed in Soundstage.

I bought a pair of RX-20 Avant Garde's within the last month. I bought them used for use in a second, bedroom system. I can't speak so much about company reputation, but I have opinions on the sound. If you want all the details, send me an email and I'll tell you what I think.
