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?

After trying a pair of Heresy IVs for a month or so I decided to keep my Heresy IIIs as they're more to my liking, so now I have the dreaded "fear of polyimide" syndrome. The mid drivers in the IIIs are titanium with a far more complex horn throat than the IVs, and I fear the new Cornballs, uh Cornwalls, would lead right into my fears (same with the Forte IV)...although I now have a much larger room to park my gear heap...the Heresy IIIs are doing fine but I had thought about Cornballs...damn...CORNWALLS to make larger sounds...now I think I'll just stay with Heresy IIIs until I get the itch for mo something...
After having rejected a couple of pairs of speakers recently (and another pair of well regarded speakers a couple of years ago) I have to emphasize how utterly important it is (to me anyway) to listen before you buy. The speakers I like (and currently own) do exactly what I seem to need, all the time, and they've earned their home. Curiosity has lead me astray and hey...you sometimes  learn from mistakes, although sometimes not so much. It's weird when I get excited for something new and after break-in compare them to what they are trying to replace and think UH OH...damn.
