Sound characteristics of YBA


Anyone heard the YBAs?? Has a very airy, musical and emotional mids and trebles and not muffled, very open sounding. Like to hear if there are systems that produces similar sounding characteristics.

Regards.

hi everyone,

may i humbly bump this thread to gain some feedback if anyone know of ANY hifi equipment (CDP, preamp/amp) that share similar characteristics to YBA ? perhaps 85% to 90+% closeness in airyness and its laidback uncompress open soundstage.
any input would be deeply appreciated. currently their YBA Passion & lower series do not really have sonic as impressive as the former YBA Classic series. Thanks again.

Seems the brand has lost favor over the years exponentially since the nineties. I have an Integre int amp that is/was meh to my tastes. My Leben makes it sound like a NAD.

New product line after a chinese company more or less purchased them is to be revealed this month in Munich their website says.
yes, YBA has hippups for many years. According to local dealer and their website, YBA has restart its Signature series, unlike other range, all production for these equipments is in France. But its new design and built had deviated from its original concept and philosophy, and as costly as before. i'm not sure if it still sound as good as before... so i seek if anyone know of any hifi that sound close to previuos YBA version without that heavy price tag. thanks..
