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.

i own the rockport altair's and i can tell you without hesitation or any doubt at all that there are no box vibrations. nor do they bottom out. in fact i am still looking for the bottom. i had considered the yg pro but could not get past the look, at $100000 + list price they should be better looking, not just metal pyramids. i also considered the upgraded alexandra 11's and focal grande(although i have not seen these in their new form). i chose the altair for the whole package sound, quality of built, looks(wife factor) warranty(5yr) and price. they are fantastic speaker as they should be.
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!
