A Hidden "Feature" of the Cornwall IV

Hey JB...I know how you feel. (Disregard the haters) Its the super efficiency of the Klipsch Heritage group. I104db @ 1 watt RMS into 8  Ohms) Any change in kit is amplified in its noticeable impact. Early on I wondered why "everything" made a such a difference. Almost every criticism leveled at LaScalas are due to this "hidden feature". They are picky about who they play well with! They have "evolved" from the shrill, bass shy, tunnel horn, PA speakers into invisible transparent magic machines allowing me to listen INTO the sound stage. Best of all, they are wonderfully crystal clear at low volumes. (Which is another weird "hidden feature" since they are capable of truly rock concert volumes with no fear of driver destruction.) Each upgrade around them will be abundantly revealed and rewarded. FUN! I know this because I bought these first and then upgraded every else second. Do I get my check now?

I wish they were paying me!  I need a benefactor here. 
If you’re the curious and adventurous type in the hobby, these speakers could spell trouble for you. Time to get back to the music. 

Ozzy, isn’t it great to get these checks? Do you think they’d be open to direct deposit?  

I have Heresy IV’s and love them more as time goes on. I bought them with the preconceived notion they would be good but can get unruly on the top end, are a bit unrefined but can really rock. When I received them I was *almost* disappointed in how refined and warm they are.

fast forward about 9 months and I’m still in love. Like the OP said, and unlike my previous Focals, these will allow you to hear each change up the line. I back them with a pair of Rythmik subs and am ecstatic.

Same thing with Forte IV , especially when changing tube types.   Think I have everything dialed in and they sound fantastic.  The detractors have probably not even heard the new Heritage line.   Best speaker I've ever owned .
