Klipsch Cornwall IV

I haven’t heard the CW4 and wish I had before getting the Volti Razz which is of similar midrange horn design. CW4s were only 1k more but there’s no place near me to have a listen. However, I did the Greg Roberts show and tell and fell in love with the Razz. Build quality is superb and they sound awesome driven by my Pass Int 60 SS amp. Choice of DACs though makes huge differences in musicality. No turntable yet, only streaming and cds ripped by Innous. 

Cap changes are frustrating because it should not need done. I swear every speaker at even crazy prices come with crap internals.

Cornwalls were MUCH cheaper than the Volti Razz (I have both). Not so much now with the price increase at Klipsch starting this week.  Think my IV's cost a little over 4K (Picked up in person) and the Volti's were more 5-6K with shipping.  If your happy with the Razz (Which has superior quality parts) why would you regret purchasing them vs something you havent heard??

Well, I wouldn't say they were crap caps, just run of the mill MKP.  I put the best caps I have ever heard in.  That said, caps, like speakers, are a personal choice and others may prefer a different cap over the ODAM.  They are a great speaker with the stock caps, but there are many better caps in the world than what is in there, and there one sand resistor is in a key spot and I am sure even a change to something like a Mills would be audible.  I have not heard the pathaudio ones, but many love them so I will use them.

No regret on the Volti, just would like to have heard CW 4 due to some good reviews. I’m happy! The pricing I’m seeing for new CW 4 is 6k. The Razz with prem finish (Lightning) were 6k as well.
