 won’t go through all 28 tracks in my new playlist, which includes “You’ll Never Walk Alone” from John Wilson’s new recording of Carousel; “Sympathy for the Devil” and “Street Fighting Man” from the Rolling Stones’ Beggars Banquet; “Diamonds & Rust” by Joan Baez; “Something” and “Because” from the Beatles’ Abbey Road; the second movement, Scherzo, from Anton Bruckner’s Symphony No. 9; and a violin concerto by J. S. Bach, a Haydn symphony, and a Shostakovich string quartet. On every one of these tracks, the YGs held a slight edge, but the price difference was out of all proportion to the sonic gains.

The Haileys threw a wider and deeper image, had greater definition in the bass, displayed increased resolution, and were cleaner on difficult percussion sounds. The differences were greater with bass-heavy material, where the YGs sounded cleaner and more tuneful, and on percussion-heavy jazz. But the YGs and Acoras sounded far more alike than different. You might well think they came from the same manufacturer if you were blindfolded. I would recommend the YG if cost were no object. But it almost always is, and I consider the MRC‑2 sensational value for money.
