I was at AXPONA and visited the room with the Vantage Live system a few times. I've owned YG Acoustic Carmel speakers for 10 years, and am a big fan of the company's early works (getting a personalized tour of the factory from Yoav Geva when I was in Denver on business in 2013 certainly didn't hurt).

I thought the sound was balanced top to bottom, and had the solid YG harmonics. Imaging, soundstage and dynamics were solid, even in the hotel room.

I was highly impressed.

Alternatively, part of the intrigue of the hobby (to me) is assembling a system with all the various components, including cabling. The Vantage Live takes that out of the equation.

If someone wants a killer system in the $50k range that is essentially plug and play...and I do mean a killer system...they should give it a listen.
