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. Show rooms are often so full of trickery and manipulative sales shmucks most of the time. I don't know where you are but Metropolis Outfitters in Paducah KY is a very highly regarded dealer well respected by Klipsch fanatics. People drive for many hundreds of miles to deal with him.

Anybody near central Virginia is welcome to come hear my pair.

Why not buy Spatial audio x3 orX5 that is their latest
much more refined models with built in powered Bass.

I have owned both the X3 and the Cornwall IV(current). They are very different speakers (both excellent) but I wouldn’t dismiss the Cornwalls as inferior. Can't go wrong with either purchase. 

I owned both as well. Both are great speakers, but the Cornwalls suit my listening taste more.

Agree with RIAA in that CWs are overpriced. Crites offers an equivalent which looses on aesthetics but, rivals in SQ and obvious $savings. Are you after furniture and name recognition? If so, spend 4 k more and go with klipsch.

Spatial on a lower tier IMO , including higher impedance and sensitivity.
