Folks,

There's a pretty nice review of the YG Hailey 2.2 at the current edition of Hi-Fi+, written by Chris Martens.
I've attached it to this post.
I liked his closing paragraphs!

"Through the YGs the presentation was so eerily realistic that I found myself involuntarily looking for sound sources at the sides of the room that I knew, in an intellectual sense, were not really there. Stereo imaging just doesn’t get much better than this.
The Hailey 2.2 shares more than a few sonic characteristics with the state-of-the- art Sonja XV. It is a terrifically revealing and musically expressive loudspeaker that is scaled perfectly—UK and European readers please take note—to deliver extraordinary results in moderately sized listening spaces. To hear them is to want them."

As usual, we have a pair available for those interested in giving them a shot.
And for those with Hailey 1, yes, it is worth the upgrade :)
