YG Acoustics

Posted by: HansW on 24 February 2017

Hi,

Does anyone have expereince of YG Acoustic speakers, preferably in a Naim context. I have heard their Carmel 2 speakers on a couple of occasions and have been impressed. Ver good initial impression of their sound, sealed bass and great measurements are attractive. Metal speaker cones makes me hesitant.

Best regards

That Carmel 2 is something else. First time I saw it in the flesh I mistook it for another diminutive cheepo. Until a closer look, with price tag.  And finish. 

Would be a fantastic solution for a very high quality system within a small discrete room. Drool......

I've heard them once, from a certain distance (the hall was crowded) at the last TopAudio, 2012. They were playing vinyl (perhaps one of the 5 discs used at audio shows among the tenths of thousands of music records in existence), it could have been Belafonte or something. 

I received an impression of the greatest effort ever made to make a machine sound like reality. I wasn't impressed, although it was a sort of circus number. Ultra clear, ultra realistic. They were the Anat III or the like. But then, when Pistorius wins a running game with titanium legs, I still am here with my flesh ones and my wooden pianoforte. I hope not to sound cynical, but I am up to the neck with these moon-race technological exploits. This American war among Wilson and Magico with YGAcoustic playing the third party is boring me no end. I still have to hear a double bass sound so natural as in the N-Sats (lower octave apart).

My opinion only,
