Any experience w/ Vienna Mahler ?

Decided to upgrade. Speakers first. Auditioned the Mahler and found them very musical. Sweet highs, but was concerned about the bass. Seemed strong. Listened to accoustic guitar (Shawn Mullins "Shimmer") and when the e-string was plucked it sounded more like a bass guitar. Also, on Dr. John's "Wrong side of the road" the bass seemed to dominant the song more so than what I heard on other speakers. Is it the speaker or Dealer's set-up?

Have you listened to the Beethovens? I own a pair of the Beethovens, and I prefer them over the Mahlers. The Mahlers have more bass and go deeper, but the Beethovens seemed tighter and quicker to me. The Mahlers seemed just a tad slow in the lower frequencies. That being said, they are still d@mn fine speakers, and setup and room placement has a lot to do with it.
