Magico S1 vs YG Carmels

Has anyone directly compared the Magico S1 and YG Carmels?
I have now heard the Carmels and very much enjoyed their sound. They list at $18,000 vs $12,600 for a similar 2 way aluminum model in the Magico S1, which I have not heard as yet. Is the S1 as musical, resolving and coherent from top to bottom as the Carmel. I am going to audition the S1 when visiting NYC early next month. Thank you for your opinions!

It was a “tweaked” V3. At that time I owned a V3, and at the demo, they sounded nothing like the V3 I owned. I would not put too much weight in to that shoot out.
The S1 is quite superior to the YG, including the bigger, more expensive 2 ways they make.
