They have very different sounds and appeal to very different listeners. YG might sound more "accurate," but my ears regester that as "boring and lifeless."

They are very transparent and super revealing of the upstream components. Like Magico, they're good hifi, just not my cup of tea. I guess I prefer a more "lively" sound. Anyway I don't know why I'm posting on a YG vs. Avantgarde discussing, its totally ridiculous. Horns are a unique sound, loved by some, hated by many. Vandersteen 5A's ARE one of my favorites BTW.
