Treble of Vienna Acoustics Haydn Grand?


Id love to purchase these speakers, but I have heard that
the top end is a bit soft and not very dynamic. Any folks
here own these speakers and have thoughts?

Thanks Guidecorna....
The gear I have that I will use is a new NAD C352 integ
amp and the Music Hall CD-25.2 and DH Labs cables with
Skylan 28" stands.
Will this gear make the VA's come alive??
Thanks...
yes, but with the VA's have an open and airy top?
The 3 reviews ive reading claim this is their shortcoming.
They say the top is too soft and laid back...no real detail.
Dave,

Go to stereo mojo website and you can read the terrible
review given to the Haydns. They say.."the top is soft
and the bottom is loud..not a good mix."
They say they dont even recommend audtioning them at home.
This reviewer at stereo mojo must really have a bone to
pick with Vienna Acoustics beacause he really hated these
speakers. He conducted a "small speaker shootout" and all
3 panelists agreed with him that they would NOT recommend
the Haydn Grands.
Check out this review at stereo mojo.com and let me know
your thoughts. They are the ONLY reveiwer I found on the
web with such negative comments on the Haydns
