from HiFi Treffpunkt, Mun Summary:
I switched from KEF Q55 to iQ5 but was not satisfied with the sound, too lean, no real bass. I decided to spend a little more money and during a listening session in a Munich Hifi-shop, I came across the Audio Physic Yara (Classic II). These sleak speakers have an incredible detailed sound, good bass (for the size) and offer a broad soundstage and sound very natural, no loudness effects but rather audiophile. You can listen to them for hours without getting tired.
The build quality and finish have a very high standard and you get 10 years warrantee.
I have fitted them antispikes (audioplan) which improved bass (cleaner and a bit deeper) and especially voices even more. They stand approx. 70 cm away from the rear wall.
I am very satisfied with these amazing, rather unknown (to me, that is) speakers.
My other equipment: Rotel RA 1060 amp, Rotel RCD 1070 CD player.
Extremely good value for the money (5 stars), of course there exist better speakers, so overall 4 stars.
Strengths:
- natural, detailed, 3-dimensional sound
- high quality build and finish
- nice, controlled, never booming bass
- simple but nice design
- rather slender, therefore living-room friendly speakers Weaknesses:
- it takes a while to develop their full sound potential
- need good positioning for the best soundstage (but that is common) Similar Products Used:
- KEF Q55 and KEF iQ5
