CEDIA 2006

A speaker brand new to me at THE Show was YG Acoustics. Seen here with his four-way Anat Reference Studio ($60k/pair with a single subwoofer per side) is YG's Yoav Gonczarowksi, who says that he doesn't "voice" his speaker—the perfect speaker shouldn't have a voice but should just reproduce what's on the recording.

Though they are based in Colorado, YG's speakers are so far only sold in Japan, where they have garnered a number of magazine awards. They are in the process of establing a US dealer network.
