A Hidden "Feature" of the Cornwall IV


The Cornwall IV is so sensitive in all respects.  Source, cables, power, time of day, recording, tubes---it is so revealing of changes you make.  I won't say it's scientifically transparent.  Instead, I'd say that it's overtly shows a difference with every change you make.  That can become a game or enjoyable in its own right, and draw you away from the music.

The good news is the Cornwall IVs are clearly a musical speaker.  This translates into most swaps of gear in and out sounding pleasant in their own right.    

Here's the problem:   I can easily sit tight with the Cornwalls and any decent setup of attached kit. But it is so utterly intoxicating to hear so many different things play with the Cornwalls.  

Curiosity killed the cat.  This cat might end up in bankruptcy!

What a wonderful loudspeaker.

its not only Klipsch that get bashed, but Golden Ear as well.  The people that scream the loudest are the ones who have never heard them. 
My room is 15.5' wide (measuring width from my ears to the walls) x 22' long (measuring from my head to the walls).  I have a high ceiling of 10'.  


12 x 15 but this is a temporary home for them.   Speakers sound good , but room is my limitation right now.  
Go watch the YOUTUBE review by ZERO FIDELITY.  He had the IV's in his room which is like 9x12 and he said they worked fine. My room is 13x15. Many find the best sound to be when they are toed in where they cross in front of your listening position.
