cant have them for listening.

whats your opinion about them?
im not see enthusiasm from these speakers.
 
If you can't listen to them in your system in your room, don't buy them.
 
Bump. I han a 2nd generation pair of Beethovens that were high quality, extremely musical and transparent speakers that the only shortcoming I can speak of was the limited spl. They just couldn't rock and while VA spec'd those woofers at 7" they were more like 5.5" so to go reasonably deep with such a small box and drivers 96 db peaks were about the best I could expect from them being driven by a krell kav 300il. If 'The Music' sounds like the beethoven and can sustain 100 db spl average and handle peaks +/-10 db i'm interested.
 
Heard The Music sound very good at Soundings in Denver during RMAF years ago. Did not seem to be dynamically challenged to me. Heard them with Boulder, and Jeff Rowland electronics. Did not care for the sound when driven by the Boulder amps (2000 series I think), but sounded great with the Rowland amps. In my experience Vienna Acoustic speakers need an amp that can control the woofers to sound their best. Otherwise the bass is a little flabby. Don't even think about low powered tube amps.

thanks for the reply, My hegel H360 does a pretty nice job in that dept so I may pursue.
 
I play my Vienna The Music speakers through my D’Agostino Momentum Integrated Amp. I believe these speakers punch above their weight in terms of price and have cheerily declared victory in the speakers and amp categories..
Playing mine with ARC Ref75 and they sing and sing...just LOVE THEM...

Time for a detailed description

Not sure how I came across this old post of mine, but to update, my earlier declaration of victory in the amp category was premature, as I since upgraded to the Westminster REI amps and also upgraded in the DAC category to the Lampizator Horizon, and I also upgraded the power on my Innuos Statement. I am pleased to say that the music from my Vienna’s is even better.

Those speakers in my book are true gems and not many people unfortunatelly know for them or had a chance to hear them….still in love with mine…
 
There was a pair that came up locally and it was $1000 more than others were asking and I let them go. kinda wish I woulds ponied up. The Blades are good, but the music are still on my bucket list.

The Magic are exceptional speakers and a far too well kept secret in the high-end. Carmen good to see you on WBF my friend!
