TBT: YG Acoustics Hailey 2.2 Floorstanding Loudspeaker Review

Cards on the table. I’ve owned the YG Carmel and the YG Carmel 2, each of which I’ve reviewed in these pages in January 2012 and July 2015 respectively. You can read them here and weep. I’m addicted to the ultra-high resolution, low distortion, lightning reflexes, dynamic range and the holographic imaging of the Carmel speakers. They are not for everyone. Due to the particular way they are constructed from billets of aircraft grade aluminum, they cost a lot of money, and due to their relatively small size, they don’t reach down all that deep.
