Klipsch Cornwall IV

Yes, congrats. Labor well the placement. As with many good speakers, tiny changes make big differences in tonal balance and imaging.

I have around 100 hours on the Cornwalls. I never thought I would be sitting across from a pair of Klipsh speakers but I’m really impressed with them. They are engaging and dynamic with great subtly and articulation.
I have them aimed so if I’m sitting in front of them I can barely see the inside plane of the speakers. I’d say this is almost directly firing. I like them better with the grills off. The grills are unfortunately some sort of cheap rubber that feels like outdoor furniture. That’s probably the only negative thing I can say about them at this point.
So far I don’t find them bright at all. No falling asleep from boredom, no twitching or beaming or ears ringing. Very impressed at how they are so lively without taking it too far like so many speakers.
Using a Coda CSIB and it’s doing a wonderful job driving them. Will likely switch over to tubes at some point but I’m in no hurry. Thanks for the recommendations, I would have never tried these if it weren’t for some of you sharing your speaker journeys.

Congrats BJ....Good to know the Coda works welll with them.  Recently picked up the #8 amp and the 7 Pre combo so look forward to trying them out on them down the road. Enjoy your new toy!!

Riaa have you compared the Cornwall to the Razz’z?

Nope...both still in their boxes collecting dust. Something to look forward to one day.
