Conrats on your new speakers! They look awesome.
I haven’t had the pleasure of hearing any YG speakers yet, but as a former speaker designer, I’ve admired a lot of the things they do. I particularly like the crossover point between midbass and woofers @ 90hz, which puts the vast majority of the vocal range into solely the midbass drivers instead of splitting it with the crossover between the woofer and midbass drivers....it gives a much better chance of excellent coherency IME. Many speakers put the crossover smack dab in the middle of the vocal region, which is also the primary range that just about all acoustic instruments play in. There’s never a free lunch, but keeping all those fundamental frequencies in the same driver always made sense to me, and is the approach I took with the speakers I’ve had and loved for the past 30 years. Hope you get as many years of satisfaction from yours. Enjoy!
My new speakers
After owning Monitor Audio PL500 II speakers for 10 years, I’ve purchased my last speakers, YG Acoustics Sonja 3.3s. They are definitely different than my Monitor Audio PL500 II speakers. In my opinion, Monitor Audio PL500 II speakers offer a great value and do many things well. BUT, the Sonja 3.3s are clearer, tonality is improved, more dynamic and instruments/singers are more palpable. I’m not suggesting a night and day difference, but easily discernible differences. Unfortunately, Incremental improvements are very expensive in this hobby. I would say that I’m done, but I’m sure I’m going to change my Chord Dave DAC.
