I found this information to be quite interesting. There is a possibility that there are bonuses to the emblems that are sold by the speaker. My information comes from destinynews.net just so the credit is out there. I don't know who the exact author is otherwise I would include their name here also. So here is a list of the emblems and their associated possible buff:
Emblems:
Blessing of IV - Higher drop chance from enemies on Mars (Cabal)
Blessing of the Ancients - Higher drop chance from Majors or Ultras
Blessing of the Gifted - Higher drop rate/cryptarch conversion chance
Blessing of the Joined - Higher drop chance when in a group
Blessing of the Knight - Higher drop chance from Hive
Blessing of the Sentinel - Higher drop chance from Vex
Blessing of the Skeptic - Higher loot chance on end game rolls
Blessing of the Speaker - Higher drop chance the higher Light level you are
Blessing of the Unmade - Chance for more drops from chests
Blessing of the Watcher - Higher chance of loot from end game rolls and chests
Blessing of the Zealot - Higher drop chance from The Fallen
Blessing of Worlds - Chance of more materials looted
My recommendation is to pick one that suits your main goal and try it out. Comments on your findings would be very helpful.
*EDIT*
If you did not already see in the comments below, the original author of the piece payed our thread a visit and informed us that Bungie made an off-the-record confirmation that the Speaker emblems do NOT provide hidden bonuses. Although with the many changes in this weeks patch increasing the drop rate and redemption rate, some of those buffs wouldn't really matter that much.
