YBA사는 프랑스의 마크레빈슨 이라고 불리울 정도로 세계적으로 인정받고 있으며, 아름다우면서도 깜끔한 디자인과 순도 높고 우아함이 감도는 음이 높이 평가 받고 있습니다.
YBA는 프랑스 Phlox electronique사의 고급 제품 브랜드로 다른 오디오 애호가겸 과학자인 Yves Bernard Andre에 의해 창립된 회사 입니다.
최근 YBA 사운드는 기존 사운드에서 진화를 거듭하고 있으며, 전형적인 예로 클래식 시리즈의 시그마 인테그레 를 볼수 있습니다.
동사의 클래식 시리즈중 하나인 CLASSIS 3 SIGMA COMBO(분리형 앰프)의 기술력이 고스란히 곁들여져 하나의 앰프로 기능면에서는 프리앰프에 버금가는 실력을 지니고 있습니다.
또한 기존에 출시되었던 모델에서 상당량의 내부회로 및 출력트랜스의 변화로 인해 한층 향상되는 사운드와 섬세함을 보여주고 있습니다.
YBA사의 규모와 철학을 고스란히 지니고 있는 음색과 짜임새가 우수한 사운드를 정감 넘치게 표현한 YBA CLASSIC INITIAL 는 꾸밈없는 진정한 사운드를 추구하는 애호가들에게는 더 없이 좋은 추천 CDP 입니다.

Since 1981, YBA has being developing thanks to the passion of one man, Yves-Bernard André.
Through his relentless search for sound perfection we can offer you a musical quality that is unfailing. But beyond this perfect technology, our instruments will make you feel a new emotion. An emotion that is unique. An emotion that affects skilled audiophiles as well as music lovers, whether they are keen on jazz, chamber music or symphony orchestra.
This startling emotion is also the fruit of a team of enthusiast collaborators. Our workshop technicians or engineers are all past masters in the art of creating the “exceptional”…
As for the services, availability, attention and personalization are central to our provisions as well as to those of our network of choice partners.
The quality of our equipments combined with the passion of a whole team of enthusiast “craftsmen” make of YBA the standard reference company in uncompromising High-fidelity.
“Quality is a constant state of mind. It is a matter of passion and experience. Not a matter of standards…
Technology is not an end in itself. The pleasure found in listening must be our only guide.”
Yves-Bernard André
Reproducing as accurately as possible the reality of sound is a matter of expertise and musical knowledge. Knowing how to stir an emotion thanks to well-tuned instruments is the fruit of the passion and the sensitivity of those who create these instruments.
Thus, the manufacturing of our products, while preserving the original feelings as well as a perfect purity, demands discipline, precision and patience… the work of a real expert.
The 4 main criteria to fire your emotion :
MUSICAL QUALITY
Sobriety and simplicity are the key words of our creations. Everything possible is done to make the listener forget electronics and enjoy nothing but the music. Useless to say that all our devices are treated with the same concern, from the smallest to the most impressive.
The very numerous and prestigious awards and distinctions we were given by the French and international press in more than 30 countries best illustrate our concern.
DURABILITY
Owning a YBA device is a long-term investment, both emotional and financial.
The quality of its creation and manufacturing preserves its value all along the years and allows us to offer a guarantee for up to 10 years (according to the model).
The quoted value of the devices and the limited number of them that can be found on the second-hand market is the best testimony of their quality.
PURITY
The shorter the signal, the better the sound. Therefore, limiting the obstacles by reducing the number of components and by choosing only the best is one of the secrets of fidelity and music quality.
This simplicity implies that a specific attention is paid to the smallest details. Thus, each component is ear-tested in order to achieve the best harmony.
EVOLUTION ABILITY
YBA instruments are exceptional products whose particularity is to accompany you during many years of musical happiness. All our devices are indeed made to benefit from the latest improvements and even upgrade into higher models

AN EXCLUSIVE DESIGN
Paying a continuous attention to the tiniest details is the only way to obtain unparalleled instruments. Therefore, our development team has become a past master in the art of devising innovative solutions.
HAND-ASSEMBLED COMPONENTS
There”s nothing like the expertise and the sensitivity of an experienced hand. Thus, all the electronic components are hand-assembled in our workshop.
ON-REQUEST MANUFACTURING

METICULOUS CHECKS

THE FINISHING TOUCHES BY THE CREATOR
