Klipsch Cornwall IV

Hello all,

I'm interested in what people who have heard the speaker feel about it. I currently run spatial M3 turbos and have an all tube analog setup ( line magnetic, hagerman ) with an oppo 105 being the digital front end.


Previous speakers have been acoustic zen, reference 3A, Maggie 3.6, and triangles. I am more concerned with a huge immersive sound stage than I am with pinpoint imagery. I have a big room and have plenty of space between the back wall and my speakers if I need it.


Any thoughts?

Do you mind disclosing the cap values that you substituted, as well as the 30 ohm sand cast resistor ( 30 ohms, but what “watt value”) that you haven’t yet replaced . I want to order them for a friend who has the necessary skills to do the swap out.
Much Thanks....

Are the inductors air core or iron core.? If iron, shouldn’t they also be changed.....?

Thanks for your feedback. The Corn IV are amazing speakers, stock, once you get at least 50 hours on them, and they really start to open up at around 150 hours. I will eventually change out the caps and resistors, (and dampen the mid and tweeter horns with Dynamat), however I am first going to add in a second pair of Cornwall IV’s and stack them......yes I know, sounds crazy and major league over kill, however one doesn’t know till one tries.....I realize there will be some “Comb Filtering effects”, and imaging may suffer, etc. Should be interesting at the very least .....Anyway again thanks for your work and feedback.
CHEERS.......
