Wilson Audio Yvette - 展樂音響設計中心 Open Music Audio Center

For me, the organic design of the Yvette makes it the Wilson product that comes closest to the magic of an Apple design—and the one most pleasing to my eye. That beauty in the eye of this beholder, combined with its rich tonal palette, its facility to re-create a large lifelike soundstage and its flair for sounding larger than it is, make the Yvette my new reference—a speaker that fits my space and fulfills my requirements for engaging, dynamic, rich sound…

Introducing Yvette

The new Yvette draws from this formidable tradition. But perhaps most importantly, it sources much of its technology directly from the enormous research-and-development reservoir of what is perhaps Wilson’s most prolific era of innovation to date. The Sasha Series 2, the Alexia, and Dave Wilson latest WAMM project have all informed Yvette’s development , in some cases, with identical components.

Design

It is natural to view the Yvette within the context of Wilson’s past models. Early on in Wilson’s history, Dave Wilson’s WATT/Puppy literally transformed the high-end loudspeaker market.

Drivers

In conjunction with the WAMM project, Wilson Audio recently completed yet another wave of research into tweeter technology and exotic driver materials. They all fell well short of the musicality, natural resolution, and coherence of Wilson’s tweeter. The Yvette employs the MK III version of the Convergent Synergy Tweeter, which is also found in the Sasha Series 2 and the Alexx. The MK III features Wilson’s latest thinking on rear-wave diffraction and ultra-low resonance rear chambers. It mates seamlessly with Wilson’s proprietary midrange driver.

Enclosure Materials

The enclosure is built primarily from two Wilson-developed composites: the third generation of X-Material, an extremely well-damped and inert composite, and S-Material, which was developed for exquisite midrange performance.
