Vienna Acoustics Haydn Grand?

I listened to the Haydn Grand's last Fall. I was looking for a warmer sound than the Paradigm Studio 40 v.3's I have. They certainly are smoother than the Paradigm's. Then the Focus line from Dynaudio came out. I finally got to a dealer today to listen to the 140's. They are considerably better than the Haydn's- imaging, detail, bass. They are a very fine speaker. I bought a pair of the 140's. I should get them in about a week. They are more than the haydn's in price. The Focus 110's are closer to the price of the Haydn's and I think they have the edge. they are definitely worth an audition.

fantastic speakes.. i hvae the haydyn's in black and they are beautuful and solid

The Haydn Grands' extraordinary imaging, delightfully open and natural sound continues to blow me away. I highly, highly recommend them.

i auditioned a pair at an audio dealer, accompanied by mcintosh electronics.

at first they were mounted on stands. i listened and i observed very audible cabinet colorations. i then suggested placing the speakers on top of a pair of column speakers, which positioned the tweeter about one foot over my ear.

at that point, the cabinet colorations were significantly ameliorated.

the salesperson suggested i try them in my own system, but i chose not to do so.

as far as other aspects of performance, i didn't notice any warmth, but i didn't notice any frequency imbalances either.
