Hey, a year later. I used sound deadening tape to sutile the sound of my Cornwall IVs. Look it up on You tube. Best thing I ever did. Best speakers out there for under 10,000 There amazing. Every upgrade makes you WONDER They just get better.
klipsch cornwall iv upgraded crossovers
I own a pair of cornwalls, amazing speakers they are paired with MC452 power and a MC 70 tube pre.I play cds only on a yamaha C2100. My question is I hear people talking about upgrades to the crossovers on the corns and softening the horns with sound tape . Do any of those changes work,one or the other and do they make it worthwhile. Would like input from anyone who has tried the upgrades and who they used

@atlvalet Check out on YT " The Boston Audiophile ", Klipsch CW IV upgrade. My best, MrD. |
No, just no. I’m not wrapping my horns or doing any other ridiculous tweaks. I think the 4th gen Heritage lineup sounds great from the factory, the last thing I’m doing is trusting some diy audio fanboys over the engineers at Klipsch that have been refining these designs since the 50’s. If the horns needed dampening they would have addressed it by now. |
FYI, I exchanged emails with Don (he’s awesome, BTW), and in addition to the Dynamat on the horns, the crossover mod basically consists of replacing the cheap Chinese caps with VCap ODAMs (which I know Don has made clear he’s a fan of) and the sand resistor. |
