Magico/YG


I am looking to upgrade my speakers and ask if any Audiogoners in NY Metro area own Magico Mini II's or V2's or YG Carmels that I could stop in and listen to. I come bearing a nice bottle of wine or beer of your choice. Won't stay long. Don't want to make a major investment without listening, and will be buying used so don't want to mislead brick & mortar shop.

Thanks,

Neal

I'm in the Boston area and you are welcome to hear my Mini 2's. I will add that a store demo of the V2 was for me the best in store demo I had ever heard of a music system. I ended up buying the Mini 2s because I found them to be a bit more coherent and balanced, but they are more expensive. They are also built to a higher standard and are better looking IMO. However, the V2 is a great value used at around $9K. I've only heard the Carmels at a show and not in my system, so can't really comment on them.
I have had a few superb dealer demos at Goodwins Highend in Boston. Much better than anything I heard at the two audio shows that I've attended. Seek out a good dealer with good rooms and you will get a good idea of what these speakers can do.
