Stacked Large Advents v Cornwalls v Klipschorns

I currently have Advents and have always liked the sound. Please only respond if you have actually heard or ownedat least two of the three options I’ve listed. Will either Klipsch model(purchased as a used/older set) be a noticeable upgrade? What will be the benefit (what am I likely to hear) that makes the purchase worth the added cost? Thanks.

Had all 3, in the order you have them listed. The Advents were superb back in the day. However no match for the Cornwalls, and certainly not for the Khorns. As mentioned above, your room is critical for these speakers to sound right. And what you power them with as well. Hint- Wil Vincent from Autospec is selling a Baldwin modified amp here, One of the best sounding amps I heard with the Khorn.

There is no contest. When I was a teenager in the 70's my older brother was sold on Advents. I challenged him to an A/B test with my Klipschlike Fraisier IV's..They blew his Advents out of the water. He went and bought a pair Heresy's the next day
