YG Acoustics add in Stereophile

Thanks Khrys. I had auditioned briefly the Anat Ref modules on stands awhile ago, but it was a) the first day the dealer received a pair and b) I asked them to use a power amp of similiar power capability of mine (they used a 150W amp in 8 ohms which I was not familiar with). I found the imaging the best I have ever heard, unreal really, but no bloom, sort of steely. But I always thought I probaby check them out again once they are broken in, and next time to try various degrees of power...given at the end of the day if I end up loving them I can always think about power amps later.

YG owners,
What amps are you using with your YGs? And what model YG speaker do you have?

I'm using Halcro DM88's for the left and right channel (ANAT ref II Professionals), I use two Linn Klimax solo's for the center channel (ANAT ref II main module). And a Linn Klout for each of the rear channels (Kipod Studios).

I've tried the Solos on the left and right and they worked well, certainly not of the level of the DM88s.

When I set up the Kipods as the rear channels, I actually wired them as the left right and listened to music. I find this a good way to determine the "best" placement. The combination of klouts (which is of course older amps) and kipods was very musical. I do have two klimax chakra twins that I was going to use on the Kipods, but have not felt the need.

The speakers are very musical, resolving, and transparent. I'm amazed at how they respond to everything that you do, setup, placement, etc.

Wow Kevin! what a great setup. Please post pictures if you can.
