Any Vienna acoustics love out there? Anyone even still using them?


Don't hear much about them anymore.  I ask because I moved my Bach Grands from the living room (where they don't get much use) down into my basement main listening room today.  Wanted to hear them with my Hegel h360, which I have never done.  I was quickly reminded why I bought them in the first place.  Great imaging/center image and instrument separation, excellent soundstage, sweet midrange.  Warm, full sound you can listen to all day long.  Can a speaker be on the warm side and still detailed?  If so, I would say these fit the bill.  Not the best for dynamics or that 'live' feeling, but that's not what I bought them for.   

Anyway, interested in anyone's VA experience in general.

The “Tweeter” store era VA’s beethovens found their way home where they reside in my ht room now, but for 10 years they were in the listening room, (read basement:). They have better resolution than the strauss and are awesome with jazz. The speaker is obviously tuned by ear instead of a mic and with the right music really makes magic, but they can’t play loud and the recessed midrange gets frustrating with some music. I missed the chance to land a pair of “the Music” for $11k locally because fellow owners told me my h360 wouldn’t have enough juice to drive them. ‘Shoulda tried.
