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?

Once again, can one of you here who owns the Cornwall IV speakers give me the height and width dimensions of the midrange horn?
Much appreciated.

Thanks so much Ozzy!
I was curious to know if it was a larger horn than the one on my Epics. As it turns out, the size is the same, although I realize that the throat design on the new Cornwalls is much more advanced.

The PathAudio resistors have been ordered.  I'm close to pulling the trigger with Chris at VCap.  

I've damped the high, mid and bass ports. I've managed to use my existing Auralex Subdude II isolation pads under them--they actually fit even though measurements are deceiving.  The Klipsch platform is underneath and narrows the dimensions by ~1.5" each way so the Auralex work.  

I think with the VCaps and Paths, plus this other stuff, I'm closing in on Volti's clarity and beauty.  The CWalls already sound better. 

By the way,  I know some may disagree, but from a subjective perspective I think VCap and ClarityCap make superbly fine caps.
