worth the jump to Cornwall IV's from Forte IV's?


Hi,

How significant is this upgrade?  I went from Heresey 's to Forte's and the upgrade was substantial,

I suspect the upgrade I'm seeking comers in the form of La Scala's which I can't fit in my room

Is it worth the consideration or is it just a slight (if any) improvement over the fortes?

thanks in advance

I have replaced Cornwalls with Audio Kinesis "Jazz Module" (you can see that speaker on YouTube in my system composed of Atma Sphere amplification and TEAC vrds CD player). That particular model is not in production right now but shall be available again in october. Few other models from AudioKinesis will do a better job than Cornwalls (namely Azel and Gina with subs) particularly in the rendition of the stage / space. More importantly, you can contact Duke (the guy behind Audio Kinesis) and discuss with him about your needs. A better amplifier may be something to look into, as sometimes good speakers like Forte's are underexploited by poor amplification. La Scalla and Volti are very fine, but too big for any room and, let's be honest, ugly.
