Klipsch Cornwall IV


Hello all,

I'm interested in what people who have heard the speaker feel about it. I currently run spatial M3 turbos and have an all tube analog setup ( line magnetic, hagerman ) with an oppo 105 being the digital front end.


Previous speakers have been acoustic zen, reference 3A, Maggie 3.6, and triangles. I am more concerned with a huge immersive sound stage than I am with pinpoint imagery. I have a big room and have plenty of space between the back wall and my speakers if I need it.


Any thoughts?

@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 effort is likely to pay off.
Over here, in my digs, my Cornwall IV's are driven by a First Watt Sit-3 (18 wtc), with music streamed (Qobuz) through an Auralic Altair G1. 
I have not enjoyed the privilege of auditioning many components and/or systems, so I cannot know if my Cornwalls would sound better with a different amp or if my amp/dac would sound better with different speakers. I _do_ know that this combo sounds great to me!
The ability to project intimacy, nuance, depth and texture while also being capable of producing ear-to-ear grins from the power and dynamics satisfies my two most important criteria! 
  
I'm also not worried about their physical presence. I mean, if you're going to have speakers, then have speakers. As long as they are aesthetically pleasing, that I can make them work aesthetically in a room
audioman58 is right. Loose the Oppo! I owned a 105. It's good bang for the buck but high end it ain't. It surprises me constantly to see and hear systems with multi thousand dollar turntables and a sub $1000.00 CD player. No wonder people claim to not like digital. Fix the most broken part of your system first. Joe
