Y No YG ?


Hi Everyone, 

It just occurred to me that I never see YG Acoustics mentioned. With exotic cabinets and driver manufacturing, I would think they'd be discussed as often as Wilson, B&W or Magico. 

Personally I haven't heard them, but I like their brochures! 

Best,

Too bad no measurements in the soundstage review.

As I remember it was the A3 that was put up against some Revel speakers and didn't fare as well both in measured performance or blind listening tests.

Also interesting is the fact such an incredibly hotly anticipated Magico product like the A3 never got a stereophile review.

I asked at stereophile why was so and got hints that something behind-the-scenes was making it a no-go.


I listen to the Revel many times, impressive at first, fatiguing shortly after, and hardly listenable on chamber music (I am a professional musician - violins are an instrument too ;)).  
I bought a pair of Carmels used for a very good price.  Far less than the original sale price .  A very reasonable way to acquire such a speaker .  The 1st Gen. Carmels play well with tubes ,  I run mine on 30 Watt SET Amps and a DHT Preamp !
