choice VA Haydn Grand or Dynaudio Focus 110??


Hi,

Im currently debating beween the Vienna Acoustics Haydn Grand or the Dynaudio Focus 110. I will be driving either with
a Musical Fidelity A3 integ 85w and modified version of Music
Hall CD-25 player with Signal Cable speaker and interconnects.
I would surely appreciate folks comments who have either
auditioned both of these or know of these speakers?
What the the pluses and minuses of both?

Thank You

I was in a very similar situation to yours recently. I have Musical Fidelity a3.2 integrated and a3.2 cd player. I was looking for a speaker upgrade. I first listened to the VA Haydn Grands. I then listened to the Dynaudio Focus line. The Haydn's have a very beautiful veneer and finish. They have a smooth and inviting sound. The Focus line may not have quite as nice a finish but aren't too far behind. However, they are a very nice looking speaker. I think their drivers, particularly their tweeter, are superior. I think the same could be said for their crossovers. To my ears they have greater detail and imaging.
Last Saturday I went one step up and bought the focus 140's with matching stands. They should be delivered early this coming week.
The 110's are about $300.00 more than the Haydn's. Both are definitely worth a listen before you decide.
