Estelon YB
Estelon joins the elite ranks of the world's best loudspeakers.
"... the loudspeakers reproduce space and populate that space with believable musical objects.” Andrew Quint, The Absolute Sound
"I began this review by musing about the Estelon YBs’ soundstaging -- about how they projected an image. Now I’m drawn back to tell you more about how this speaker combined its varied talents -- that deep, tight, slightly rich bass; that expressive midrange; that unfatiguing, well-controlled treble -- into an extremely satisfying musical whole.
The Estelon YB has many talents, and it’s rare for a speaker to pass through my room and provide me with so many facets to explore.
Highly recommended"

"The YB is a fascinating design, made like all Estelon speakers in Tallinn, Estonia and designed by Alfred Vasillkov. The asymmetrical cabinets have little in the way of a straight line as they twist upwards like a giant barley sugar. They change proportion and shape as you view them from different angles. From the side they appear to be leaning forward as they rise. The light catches them and the soft edges appear sculptural as you begin to appreciate their elegant stance and amalgamation of angles."
"This wonderful scale that flows from the speaker is multi-layered. If you like music that is recorded with endlessly flowing soundscapes and depth, the YB is captivating and its ‘natural’ feel when it comes to musical textures just delights every time."
