Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed?


Looking for efficient speakers. I had the opportunity to listen to a Cornwall IV yesterday. It was run on nice tubes (Primaluna 400 EL34s) with a bluesound node streamer/dac.

QUESTION: I'm curious if anyone has compared CW IV with Volti Rival of Razz. Thoughts?

QUESTION 2: Anyone know what changed in the Volti Razz when it moved from v. 2 to v. 3?

Thanks

I was close to buying a pair of Volti Rivals back in early 2022, but came across a great deal on a pair of KEF Reference 3’s.  Ended up buying a McIntosh 462 and it was an amazing pairing. Lived with that for 2.5 years (longer than I usually do before I move on).  Recently I wanted to go back to horns/tubes and I found a good deal on a used pair of Razz.  Tried several different amps, but I am in love with the sound I’m getting from my Art Audio PX-25 SET amp. I have two powered 15” subs and it all pairs wonderfully.  At some point I know I want to get a pair of Rivals, but I’m very happy for now.
