Vienna Acoustics 'The Music'

Hello Jon:

Thanks for getting back to me. Currently I am using Isoclean Power Tip Toe TT-009 bases under my spikes. Do you think the Harmonix brand will be an up-grade? I have hardwood floors and love how the Isoclean bases slide which makes it easy for fine tuning their location. 

Also where can you buy the Harmonix brand. 

Thanks for all your feedback.

I have had VA music speakers for 10 years and the sound is spectacular. On the downside, in February 2019 the left speaker blew the tweeter inside the midrange driver. Ordered it directly from Vienna Acoustics in Austria and it was a whopping $2100 replacement. Two days ago, in early August 2020, the tweeter on the right side went bust this time. Now I’m looking at another $2100. These are very expensive replacements. The problem is that the people at Vienna Acoustics were very quick to blame my electronics and I know for sure there’s nothing wrong with them. I have top-notch cabling from Nordost and Crystal cable and using the speakers with the Devialet expert pro1000. I’ve tried other speakers with them without any problems. I’m not really sure what to make of this but let’s wait and see if a replacement solves the problem. It appears to me that at some point some current spike damaged both tweeters which eventually gave out at different times. With both being replaced perhaps the problem won’t recur again. 

$2100 for a tweeter is unacceptable. VA is proud to say they have their tweeters made for them and even giving them 50% markup after getting the ScanSpeak/visa/seas unit there’s no way it should cost that much. Sometimes you can figure out which tweeter it is and order directly, we used to do it with the salon 1. And the beethovens use off the shelf, top shelf but still.
