rmel is the
newest and most affordable speaker from YG Acoustics and represents
a breakthrough in manufacturing efficiency, performance and
value. The cabinet is constructed of fully machined Aircraft
Grade aluminum. This material, using pressurized assembly,
allows for the most resonant-free and acoustically desirable
enclosure construction available.
YG Acoustics speakers are all created using proprietary software developed entirely in-house. The DualCoherent™ crossover technology allows the creation of speakers that have the best frequency response and relative phase available today. All other speakers are optimized in either the frequency domain (most common) or time domain. Only YG Acoustics has the ability to optimize both domains simultaneously.
Carmel incorporates the same technologies that make YG Acoustics’ Anat Reference II Professional the best loudspeaker on Earth. In addition to the DualCoherent™ crossover, Carmel’s enclosure is milled using 4-axis technology as apposed to the competition’s 3-axis milling. This technology avoids the parallel internal surfaces common in other so-called “complex enclosure” designs. A unique enclosure design keeps mechanical losses lower than any competing speaker, by combining the minimized turbulence of a sealed design with the low friction otherwise associated with enclosure-free concepts. All this is made possible through extremely tight manufacturing tolerances, and vibration-free, pressurized assembly of the precision-ground and hardened CNC-machined enclosure panels (YG Acoustics is unique in the industry in having in-house CNC precision-grinding equipment in addition to CNC milling machines).
Carmel utilizes Scan-Speak drivers, modified to YG Acoustics specifications. The tweeter, which is assembled in house, is a highly modified ring-radiator type. It offers greatly extended frequency response, linearity, and power handling. The 7” woofer in the Carmel is a modified Scan-Speak Revelator and provides excellent clarity and bass extension in a compact enclosure.
YG Acoustics speakers are not voiced. The speakers are not created with any subjective human bias. All measurements are verified using extensive listening tests, but the speakers are not altered, “sweetened”, or otherwise manipulated to sound “pleasant” or to follow any degree of personal taste. YG Acoustics speakers simply give you what the recording has – nothing more, nothing less.
The end result is a speaker of remarkable refinement. Carmel is ultra-transparent, and presents a huge yet precise soundstage, with the neutrality and warmth of a live performance that YG Acoustics is famous for. This is all presented in a speaker with elegant lines and a shape that invites inclusion in the finest home environments.
