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

The fact that he hasn't said anything so far makes it sound kind of permanent...

He must have angered the administrators in some way. I see that they reached out to him about a problem with his virtual system on this thread. They might have had a private squabble. It'll be interesting to see if he reappears, and what he'll have to say. 

Some of you may recall that Greg got his start years ago offering first cosmetic upgrades to Klipschorns on ebay, and then horn and driver upgrades, then finally starting his own company and producing his own speakers. He was definitely inspired by Klipsch.

It really depends on your priorities. If dynamics are high on your list, you’ll learn to live with the imperfections. I did when I had them years ago, and that was much older ones, and my supporting gear wasn’t as good.

I’d suggest trying them in your system if possible. I personally think that they look good too.
