TAVES 2011

Music from Vienna Acoustics

Robert Deutsch  |  Oct 3, 2011

I've had a fondness for speakers by Vienna Acoustics ever since I reviewed their original Mozart. I've heard their larger speakers at shows since then, and they've always sounded excellent. This was also the case at TAVES. The Music (how can you criticize a speaker named Music?) at $27,500/pair was combined with electronics by Esoteric and cables by Transparent (about $42,000 total), and a MacBook Pro as the source.

MacBook is a really nice computer, but computers aren't for music. Computers are to music what Velveeta is to an artisan cheese.

Speakers able to produce real music like these need a real source like analog!

A $5000 vinyl rig will run circles around a computer audio system.
