CABINETS

Our speaker designs feature massive and inert cabinet
construction. Vienna Acoustics cabinets are designed with the
latest computer modelling techniques and use a combination
of amorphous materials in order to ensure that they are both
stiff and well damped. Additionally, our designs feature narrow
front baffles in order to promote accurate imaging. The
combination of precise build construction using furniture grade
finishing techniques and com

This distortion can and will damage loudspeaker components and will not be covered by warranty.

For the rest of us, some degree of toe-in, that is rotating the speakers cabinets until they point at the listener is desirable. Toe-in reduces sidewall reflections of the mid and upper frequencies. Though one might reasonably conclude that aiming a speaker at the listener would result in a brighter sound, this is actually NOT the case. Toeing a speaker inward will result in a smoother, warme

OPTIONAL SANDFILLING Some of our floorstanding models feature an additional hidden chamber accessible through the base that may be sand filled for the final touch in system tuning. Sand filling is an easy and cheap way to improve the reproduction of the bass range. It raises the weight and stability of the system and quiets the enclosures throughout a remarkable damping effect. To fill in the sand, put the speaker on the top on a soft cloth to protect the cabinet. Then fill in the
