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?

I disagree. I am powering them with 14 watts in my 26 x 15 room with ease. I don’t seem to run out of headroom at any volume level I care to listen. I think it’s more about the quality of the watts and having an amp with some good iron.

I am considering the Cornwall IV but a question regarding price. Are there any experiences in getting a discount from online retailers since there's no local dealer?

I would prefer having the option to return although based on this thread and other research that would be a very low outcome. I see Music Direct and Crutchfield as well known online dealers but not sure of their willingness to discount since they do have to factor in the potential for a return.

Talk to Cory or Steven. Great price, but I doubt you'll get a return option.

Thanks @ozzy62 

Did you pickup locally or have delivered via freight?

I am curious as to the freight delivery experience. I live in a single family home with a driveway that has a slight incline leading to the front porch.

Can you negotiate (i.e., tip the driver) to bring the speakers all the way to the front porch? I can manage from there.

Mine were delivered freight, strapped to a pallet. Usually the driver will do something like that for a tip. Worse case scenario is he can drop them at the bottom of the driveway and you can bring each box up one at a time with a hand truck.
