| EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!! " Where? Please! We need it. Since geoffkait left, we have been reduced to millercarbon. " Yeah I know. Millercarbon is merely theater of the absurd narcisist. Ol Geoff however was really out there and I have to admit at times I think I might mi... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV I happen to agree with the guy who designed these CW4's as to what is important. He does not use that fancy stuff to develop gear for a major speaker maker known as Klipsch. We will have to agree to disagree on the validity of dropping gobs of ca... | |
| EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!! Great to have a replacement for Geoffkait. Can I get a bottle of miracle audio elixir to coat the outside of these superb new wires for even better more astounding true never achieved before sound quality? | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV " I share your affinity for Klipsch speakers, but it's a bit contradictory to hear you say that cheap amps and zipcord are fine, but that streaming through an ipad isn't. " I have a very good reason for my sentiment. I have bought fixed and s... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV For those of you asking about the Fru Fru high end joint in Huntsville. AVIQ is the name and they list Klipsch Heritage in their product list along with many others. | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV I have no idea where some of these bits of "common knowledge we all know this to be true" ideas come from. So here we go. Millercarbon can add to this I am sure. Too big for a small room. Nonsense as I know people with MCM-1900's in their living r... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV " All Klipsch Heritage speakers are designed in the USA by Roy Delgado and manufactured in Hope AR. " Having been in the factory and Roy's sound lab in person a year ago October I can verify your comment. | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV " If you are looking for the true klipsch sound you have to buy one made prior to 1981 otherwise you are buying an asian drivered klipsch not an american drivered klipsch and there is a major difference. " Well well well, an authoritative sour... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV " @mahlman who in Huntsville is a dealer and has the CW IV on display? I thought all high end dealers were gone in Alabama. Mid-high end stores in Bham are long gone. I think Best Buy tried to put a Magnolia in their Hoover store and it's cl... | |
| Snake oil?? Miller you are not supposed to drink the stuff but then Kool-Aid appeals to some. Yeah snake oil big time and the moniker is trotted out not because it is disposalble income envy but rather it is common sense being disgusted with grandiose claims ... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV " Oz gives excellent advice to at least give a listen :-) " I second that with the caveat that finding a competent dealer is a must. Even better is to find a private owner and go hear what they sound like in person in a real home environment. Sh... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV " I have demoed them twice at the local dealer on a McIntosh 7200. I do not get the hype and thought they were kind of meh. They seemed pretty average to me. " That can be a problem. The Klipsch dealer in Huntsville, AL is clueless about setu... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV I was never a fan of the CW's and felt they were just a big boomey box sounding thing. The CW4 however was a stunning change with serious rework from drivers to the cabinet and crossovers and is now very good. I don't have a lot of experience with... | |
| If you don't have a wide sweet spot, are you really an audiophile? Darned right ieales." There can never be a surplus in image specificity. If one can localize the source, it's a fatal flaw. Frequency response beyond a certain point is irrelevant. Imaging is about PHASE and TIME. Most systems are appalling on... | |
| If you don't have a wide sweet spot, are you really an audiophile? I think those who cavalierly toss the "high end audio gear" salad around and garnish it with Audiophile dressing like to talk shop to each other but not really seek best solutions. Klipsch Cinema systems have been doing this for a LONG time and ge... |
