Klipsch cornwall speakers


I have always had a fascination with klipsch speakers from the beginning of my interest in listening to music, starting in the late 60’s. I’m in my 60’s now and am considering adding the cornwall to my system, the khorns & lascala are to big for my room. My desire for horn speakers has driven me to this and this why I’m asking for some critical constructive feedback. Please those who have them or have heard them, your experience would be a great help. I also need to find a place to hear them for myself.

Thanks

I have a pair of Klipsch Quartets that I run with a 6 watt SEP amp  love the sound and Larryi is right on about a low watt tube amp
I'll second both prior posts.  I run a 1980s pair of Klipsch Belles with a 15wpc SET and rarely take the volume beyond 10 o'clock.  However, I'm still working on "tubing down" a bit of shrillness on some female vocals:  Tracy Chapman and Cassandra Wilson sound sublime; Lucinda Williams and Ricky Lee Jones - meh, not so much.  It's a work in progress.  I  imagine this would only be made harsher using most SS amplification.  
Love Em !!!    If you have the space you will not be disappointed .   Just bought the Forte IV a few months ago , they fit my space better.   If I had the room I would have bought them.  

The new IV series are not bright, or shrill, or any of the things you've heard.   I bought my Forte sight unseen, after listening to the Heresy IV and Cornwall IV and have zero regrets...
As has been mentioned, the CW IV is much improved over earlier versions. If that one is on your radar, don’t hesitate.

They (Current version) are currently Steve Guttenberg's favorite and go to speaker on YouTube. He has done a good review on them.
