YG Acoustics add in Stereophile


I saw the YG Acoustics add in Stereophile and was wondering if anyone knew what "Competitor" speaker they were refering to in the measurements. I heard the YGs at CES and they sounded great to me.

royan i see you have the magico's V3, your telling me i have no lower end? i love guys like you who think they know all. i considered the M6's(a fantastic speaker) but the V3's did not meet the standard, in the end i went with the rockport altair. as for the bottom end, i do not use nor do i need a sub. the lower end is extremely tight and extremely deep. i suppose no ported speakers have any lower end. certainly not the alexandria's or the focal grande's also speakers considered. i know you need a sub with those V3's my 800d's had a better lower end. oh but wait your magico's arn't ported why would you need a sub? i am not knocking the V3's they are a great speaker for their range, but please don't tell me about bass, i'll put my set up against yours any day and just wipe the floor with you. "having said that, it sounds to me" that you are just jealius and you should be!
Physics are physics. A ported design like the Alter, will be apprx 24 db down from its reference efficiency point at 20Hz. Like it or not, that is how it goes. Whatever low bass you are hearing, is in your head not in the real world. In terms of the V3, you can ck online and see how low they actually go. They have 12db more output at 20Hz then the 4 time more expensive Alter. It is not all about size and gloss finish you know. But again, if you live in your head, that doesn’t really matter doesn’t it? I have nothing against your speakers, I heard them few times and thought that other then the silly side firing woofers, that sounds completely disengaged from the speakers, they were actually very pleasant.
I have owned the Temptation and evidence and the MBL 101 E I now own the YG Pros they blow everything else away.
The reason why people buy YG speakers is because it is the best sounding speaker they ever heard. I am a dealer for them I was an MBL dealer. I have lots of MBL speakers in my showroom for people to buy and nobody buys them when they compare them to the YG speakers. The best thing that YG do better than any other speaker is they sound great with any type of Music. You can play Led Zepplin or Bach they never sound Harsh. They are one of the few speakers designed with computer aided tools. If you go to the YG factory you can see the technology they use is way superior to every other speaker manufacturer.
