About the Mahler
The Vienna Acoustics Mahler is a premium three-way floorstanding reflex-loaded dynamic loudspeaker designed for no-compromise music reproduction. Featuring a slim, elegant cabinet with impeccable glossy finishes like rosewood, it houses a 1.2" silk-dome tweeter (Scan-Speak variant, vibration-isolated with silicone gel), two 7" pulp-cone midrange drivers (Scan-Speak Revelator mid/woofers), and two side-firing 10" carbon-fiber honeycomb-cone woofers (Eton) in separate sub-cabinets vented to the rear. The midrange covers from 70Hz with complex crossover points (50Hz, 100Hz, 200Hz, 400Hz, 800Hz), tweeter from 4kHz with a 1st-order filter using high-quality Mundorf capacitors. Praised by Stereophile for its convincing scale, dynamics, transparency, and value at its price point, it aims to transform the listening room. No longer manufactured, with original MSRP around $9800-$10,000 per pair.
