I love my Sf GH's. I know that many of us use the GM's and love those too.
Much disagreement on the web as to which drivers the GH's use.
Some believe they use the AudioTechnologie Mid/Bass driver and the Dynaudio Esotar's
Others feel they use the Dynaudio Mid/Bass driver and the Dynaudio Esotec tweets.
In any event, whatever these speakers use, I love the sound that they can reproduce in a
small room and I know that many listeners around the globe agree. If you are looking for
a smaller high-end speaker that can reproduce the midrange and high end response of
a live instrument, these are IMHO some of the best available.
Sometimes, I think that we forget that a speaker has to mate well with a room; I have heard many
systems that are located in small rooms ( which BTW, I think are probably more common than
large dedicated rooms in our hobby) utilizing speakers that are way too large for that room.
It took me nearly 20 years to realize that the speaker/room interaction is maybe the most crucial aspect of reproducing sound in our hobby. (ok, I'm a SLOW learner) But I am willing to bet that most of you go for the larger speaker with more drivers if that is an option in your budget. Interestingly, that can be a major mistake if that speaker ( which sounded great in the showroom or a friends system or a show) doesn't work in your room. Seems obvious, BUT it isn't.
