| Klipsch Cornwall IV @ozzy62 I've been looking at that amp recently online. Looks very promising! Great to know it works well. Please keep us updated as you get to know it better. | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV So, for those interested, here are the results in brief. Of course, this is all my room, which is 600+ sq/feet with hallways that fall back from the front wall corners, which means little bass reinforcement. Sources were all vinyl though tube phon... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV On the low-watt topic, I’ve been running my new CW intermittently with an old Moth S2a3 (modded with an external PS). Its 3.5w with Electra-Print iron sound quite good on these speakers, way better than on the Galante Silverdales (99 db) I’d been ... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV @jjss49, well said. | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV I have new CW4 and my experience is much like dbarger’s. Mine have around 75 hours of playing time on them and they have changed dramatically from day one. The bass, which was initially anemic, has filled in; the highs, strident at first, have smo... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV @jayrossi13 Are you on a suspended floor with joists, etc? The reason I ask is, I've had my new CW for a few days, situated on a concrete slab (covered by wood flooring glued down), and I have not been experiencing the bass boom and distortion you... | |
| Luxman LX-380 for LS3/5a's? Alternative? I can’t comment on the Rogers but I can on the LX-380. I bought one recently with the intention of using it on Cornwall IV, which arrive tomorrow. In the meantime, I’ve been playing around with it on other speakers, PMC IB2i and ADS L1290/2. I’m r... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV @jayrossi13 Nice success story. You’re not the first CW owner I've read about who nearly gave up but ultimately found bliss. My CWs arrive on Monday, if YRC Freight comes through; I better brace myself for some serious travails. Good to hear the e... | |
| Why not more popular? I recently bought some well-regarded OB speakers with a return period. After a couple weeks, back they went. Just did not like the sound--not enough flesh and weight. OB fanboys may say it’s because my taste has been corrupted by old tech and nost... | |
| Line Magnetic LM-845 Premium - How quiet is it? @neptune123 , thanks for the report. Sorry to hear about the hum. Your experience echoes what I’ve been reading in a number of forums, that people love the sound of LM 845 integrateds but occasionally--too often, IMO--develop issues. I hope your a... | |
| Phono Stage, Cartridge, DeGritter...which one first? I get a chuckle from people who insult the intelligence of anyone who spends money differently that they do. Pretty comical, really.If you are serious at all about vinyl, you really do need a cleaning system. An inexpensive vac cleaner is well wor... | |
| If you have a rebuilt Garrard or Lenco you need this! I think I'll stick to my Phoenix Engineering combo on my Nantais Lenco. Holds speed within .01 rpm. But good to know there's another excellent option out there. | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV @wrm57 assume I’m ignorant of what you’re saying, even when 20 years experience in this hobby. My line magnetic 518 has taps for four, eight, and 16 ohms. Would that make a difference with those triangles? I mean simply that a 102 db horn-loaded ... | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV I bet the Triangles are terrific. But at 92 db dropping to 3 ohms, they are a very different speaker. It depends on what you're after. | |
| Klipsch Cornwall IV That's encouraging, Ozzy. My space has no real corners behind the speakers, with hallways dropping back, so it tends to eat bass waves. And I can't get them closer than 3 feet to the front wall. And I don't want to add subwoofers. So we'll see. H... |
