Operations
Established in the year 2002 by Mr. Yoav Geva (Gonczarowski), the YG Acoustics brand is sold in over 25 countries worldwide. All of our speakers are handmade in house at our factory in Denver (Arvada), Colorado.
Marketing
Since 2004, YG Acoustics has become one of the strongest brands all over the world. YG Acoustics is always expanding it\'s marketing reach on a global basis. The strength of YG Acoustics in Asia and Europe has led to distribution in many other parts of the world as well. In the U.S. there is a strong marketing campaign in major audiophile print publications as well as many web based publications.
Technology
YG Acoustics loudspeakers are designed and optimized using proprietary software developed entirely in-house. While it seems obvious to non-industry members that any serious high-tech company should create its own custom tools for critical tasks, in fact nearly all other loudspeaker brands worldwide rely on a single off-the-shelf design suite, in which the core is predominantly over 10 years old. The result, as discerning audiophiles have already noticed, is that all of those loudspeakers suffer from the same problems, and those deficiencies prevent them from sounding even remotely like �the real thing�. YG Acoustics software is highly advanced and uses technology developed by Mr. Geva from scratch, i.e. it cannot be found in scientific publications. This, combined with cost-no-object construction using aircraft-grade aluminum with no wood-based materials whatsoever, ensures performance unparalleled by the competition. When driven by adequate electronics and correctly set-up, YG Acoustics loudspeakers are completely capable of fooling the human ear into believing that it is listening to live music. YG Acoustics\' major technologies are: DualCoherent� crossovers, FocusedElimination� damping technology, and many more on the horizon.

Network\'s TWBAS (The Worlds Best Audio System) Great North American Loudspeaker Tour and their stop at the YG Acoustics factory. \"...the Anats were adept at revealing the wide array of tonal colors in all types of music. ...the greater resolution doesn�t sacrifice the color rendering but, on the contrary, enhances it. So it was with the Anats. ...singers� various vocal pitches were cleanly and (here�s that word again) vividly displayed across a wide, information-packed soundstage.\" \"...such was the Anats� combination of clarity, speed, and agility...\" \"...a high overall level of transparency, and pinpoint imaging within the soundstage.\"
September 2009: In Positive Feedback Online Issue 45 Adam Goldfine reviews the Anat Reference II Studio speakers. He comments:: \"goose bump inducing realism\" and \"sounds seemed to materialize out of thin air to startling effect\". \"Their ability to resolve fine nuances of low level detail and ambience gave them the ability to recreate acoustic space like nothing I\'ve heard and was nothing short of astounding.\" \"Freedom from strain and compression...I found the Anats to be transcendent in this aspect of performance.\" \"More than any speaker I\'ve heard, I felt I could rely on them to tell the truth with no editorializing, almost a Zen sense of bringing nothing to the music.\" \"Am I gushing? Yes. Is there reason to? Yes.\"
October 2009: Issue 196 of The Absolute Sound, Editor Robert Harley gives a sneak peak of our Kipod Studio which is slated for review. \"We\'ve heard the Kipod at several shows and have been greatly impressed by its transient speed, tremendous clarity, and high resolution.

January 2010: Issue 199 of The Absolute Sound, Editor Robert Harley reviews the Kipod Studio. He comments: \"...the kipod was capable of an enourmously appealing and captivating sound. It disapeared in the sense that it was a transparent window on the music, with extremely low coloration.\" \"Transient information had a coherence that was world-class; although highly resolving of dynamic shading, transients never into mere noise. Instead, I heard...transient-rich instruments rendered with a completely natural and organic quality...\" \"...its resolution was musically authentic, not an artifact, which allowed very long listening sessions.\" \"...the Kipod Studio was utterly magical.\"

The Paradigm Brand Story
Most speaker companies were started and run by a clever guy who had specific ideas about what was important in speaker design. He typically implemented his ideas with off the shelf parts, put them into cabinets, wired up a crossover and sold them. People’s reactions tended to be either love or hate – which led to the belief that what defines a good speaker is purely subjective.
However, Paradigm isn’t like most speaker companies. We combine science, engineering, art and manufacturing to produce speakers that are not only better sounding, but integrate better into the home and provide a better value.
We base all of our speaker development and design on landmark research that was done by Canada's National Research Council. Over two decades of double-blind listening tests with thousands of volunteers proved that 96% of people prefer speakers that have the following characteristics: flat, accurate midrange response; wide, smooth off-axis response (wide dispersion); and low distortion. We combine those parameters with industry-leading driver designs that gives every speaker we build significant low bass response and higher power handling than our competitors. The results are neutral sounding speakers with less of their own sonic signature, fuller bass and higher output than our competitors' designs.
We are known around the world for our performance and value. At the time Paradigm was founded in 1982, the top-ranking speakers that exhibited the 3 main NRC parameters were very expensive - out of reach of the average music lover at the time. So, Paradigm’s goal was to produce speakers that were preferable by 96% of the population, and also be accessible to the majority of people interested in music in their homes.
Paradigm's founders poured their money back into the company, building the largest, most complete speaker and electronics manufacturing facility dedicated to a single brand in North America, if not the world. This gives us an economy of scale that ensures the highest quality, performance, and value in the industry. Over time, repeat customers wanting something even better drove us to higher levels of performance with commensurately more luxurious industrial designs, fit and finish. As the prices rose in proportion to performance, being the best value in the market remained the same. Today we still rely on real science and engineering; we fine tune the speakers based on controlled listening sessions, wrap them in world class industrial designs, and build them ourselves from the ground up. Our approach produces speakers whose performance is less subjective or a matter of taste. Because they don't have a sound of their own they sonically get out of the way while gracefully integrating into a home. Paradigm speakers reveal the true essence of a recording better than any other brand of speakers in the world.
