| Cornwall iv Yes 60hz is probably good. Honestly most speakers start rolling down at 60hz and then they “crossover” with the port. I find speakers sound better if I crossover where the bass driver rolls down before the port is engaged. That has been my experie... | |
| Cornwall iv Interesting on the room correction, not sure what to think there and why it would be different than other speakers. You might get less room reflections with the horns. They tend to be a lot more narrow and need less room treatment/correction in my... | |
| Cornwall iv Mofojo, I am glad you like them. They are en enjoyable speaker and “audiophile” enough IMO. I think the Chorus line is pretty bad (I have owned some). As I was trying to say about the Cornwalls is they are pretty good and speakers that have th... | |
| Subwoofer speed is in the room, not the box Any negative to these very high crossover slopes, 48db etc? | |
| Cornwall iv To be fair the OP is looking at used Cornwalls IV which is what $4k ish? In that price range I would personally buy the Cornwall and be happy. I think it is far less of a risk than Tekton which would be much harder to resell. My general thought i... | |
| Cornwall iv Hilde45, I really can’t say anything about the power amps. When I demoed the Cornwall IV it was using a MAC7200 oddly the same setup at two different shops. I don’t remember what the forte was using as I was really shopping the Cornwall/La Sca... | |
| Cornwall iv Mofojo, yeah the measurements are ok on the forte, watch the video for good explanation. The general frequency slope is fine. You would have to play with toe to get the highs where you want them which can easily be done with horns. When I demo... | |
| Subwoofer speed is in the room, not the box Good thread, I don’t have a lot to contribute that has not already been said. But I have been highpassing all my speakers with an active crossovers for about 10 years now. Every speakers has sounded better with a highpass of 60hz or higher. The im... | |
| Cornwall iv I have not see detailed measurements of the Cornwall IV but here you can see the measurements of the Forte IV which might give you some insight. https://www.erinsaudiocorner.com/loudspeakers/klipsch_forte_iv/ | |
| Volti does it again! Well sadly I think Volti’s website is not updated. $7,500 is the price of the Razz. Also the pictures under the Lucera link are pictures of the razz. In this video the paper on the table shows a prices of $11,750 for the Lucera. | |
| Volti does it again! Tonywinga, I agree on your speaker tastes so that is high praise to include the Volti. I would like to hear them sometime. | |
| Volti does it again! Hilde45. I have never heard the Volti but it might just come down to quality of parts. the mid horn is mad of wood where Klispch is made of thin plastic (even the La Scala). Klispch has stamped baskets and all in all just seem cheaply put togethe... | |

| JBL 4367 = Sleep Denervation Troybn, Post your opinion once you get them. I thought they sounded good out of the box but feel like the bass improved with a bit of time on them. The highs above 10k seem to sound better on tweeter axis rather than above it so you might need... | |
| Dd67000 crossover points? JBL talks about their drivers in their white papers. They are capable of covering this range. The 4” compression driver in the S9900 shows some non linear breakup above 10k but The 4” driver in the Everest is beryllium and probably addresses it. A... |
