Each month, we send one or two lucky components to our photographer, Eric Swanson, in Santa Fe, New Mexico, to be shot for our cover. Because the YG Anat Reference is so dang heavy (440 lbs per channel) and expensive ($107,000/pair), I asked Dick Diamond, YG's director of sales and marketing, if he'd personally deliver the speaker to Eric.
No problem at all. Here's a behind the scenes look at what it took to capture the Anat Reference on film.
The speaker arrived on a pallet in three separate red cases, and took about an hour to assemble. Due to the speaker's aluminum and titanium alloy cabinet, Eric had some difficulty with getting the lighting just right. You can imagine all the reflective surfaces.
