Vienna Acoustics The Music


I like these speakers but only have heard them in a system very different than mine (less power, no analog, lesser cabling) . I am interested in hearing from owners of this speaker and what their longer term experience has been and what other speakers you auditioned before buying. If you auditioned The Musics and bought something else (Wilson Sasha, Magico or Focal Stella Utopia perhaps)I would also like to hear from you.

Thanks.

I am not familiar with the models they produce. I did hear a demo a couple of years ago with their 25k speaker. I would have to say these were one of the best speakers I ever heard. I would buy them over Wilson or Magico any day of the week.
Hi Teeshot,
I have had The Music speakers for more than 3 years now and am still very happy with them. Before I got them, I auditioned equivalent models from MBL, Dynaudio, Focal and Sonus Faber. The Music delivers better than the others in almost every sonic parameter.

I use them with the Bryston 28B SST2 monoblocks rated 1000 watts at 8 ohms, the Jeff Rowland Capri S2 preamp with hi-res DAC card, the Esoteric K-01 as redbook/SACD source and the Marantz NA8005 as a hi-res usb flash drive transport driving the Capri hi-res DAC section. The Music certainly needs lots of power to sound their best.

The midrange-tweeter module can be swiveled to suit your room and listening taste - swivel inwards for a warmer sound or outwards for a bigger soundstage. When you hit the sweet spot, The Music disappear altogether with the optimal combination of bass foundation, resolution, transparency, speed and a capacious soundstage. The Murata super-tweeter comes in handy too, more so for hi-res audio.

With the whole system in complete synergy, I am indeed in audio heaven. It really doesn't get any better than this - for both redbook and hi-res audio.

Cheers! Jon.
Hi Jon, in recent Die Muzik production, Vienna Acoustics switched the supertweeter to a transducer of its own design. G.
Hi Guido,
I haven't heard the latest iteration of The Music's supertweeter but I am pretty sure both of us continue to utterly enjoy what we still have in our homes. :)

Hi Jon, as far as I know, there is no audible difference between the old DIe muzik with Murata supertweeand the new version with the VA-designed transducer.... I continue to love my own pair! G.
