Video: World’s Best High-End Speakers 2021

In my opinion, these are the world’s best-sounding loudspeakers so far. I’ll mention the specific models of loudspeakers that have been the most memorable throughout my years in HiFi. And I’ll be buying one of them.

Mr. Audio Bacon himself. An open-minded electrical engineer and software developer by trade. I have an obsession with the enjoyment of all things media - specifically in the realm of music and film. So much heart and soul (and money) go into the creation of this artistry. My aim is to find out which products get me closer to what the musicians and directors intended.

  • Jay, I haven’t heard the Gershman Grand Avant Garde speakers, but recommend listening to JM Reynaud Abscisse Jubile speakers. I’ve owned these since November 2020, replacing Magnepan 0.7s.

  • Hi Jay, thanks for your great reviews. I’m very happy with my purchases following your opinions (Paul Haynes SR 7, Hugo M-Scaler, Hugo TT2, Benchmark AHB2, Wave Stream cables)
    Now I’m using the Benchmark AHB2 to drive my old Sonus Faber Electa Amator I ( I bought them in 1993).
    So I’m considering the Gershman Grand Avant Garde as my last speakers.
    Both have similar sensitivity, maybe it would be necessary two AHB2 in bridged mono to drive them appropriately, if you consider this option fit for the purpose.

    What amplifier do you recommend for the Gershman GAG?
    Thanks!

  • Hi Jay,

    I attended AXPONA 2020 for two days. You need five days to cover it. I fell in love with Piega C-711s there. I auditioned the very same pair at my local retailer by arrangement with Axiss Audio. I bought them. The same pair. Concentric tweeter/midrange ribbons are used with radiator woofers. I have had them for two years and they are remarkable. Piega unfortunately has not done a great job of marketing in the US. I believe they are now being distributed by MoFi. Among the most transparent speakers I have heard.
