Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed?

Thanks @doyle3433 

I’m not speaker shopping at the moment, but I’m keeping them on the short list to audition when possible. Greg is only a little over six hours away and it gives me a good reason to visit Nashville again.

Maybe not apples to apples, but when I discovered Volti offering Klipsch upgrades here, it seems Volti drivers are better than Klipsch. I get the feeling that Greg looked at Klipsch speakers as a reference then made better sonic products reflected in the many very positive reviews.

Some of you may recall that Greg got his start years ago offering first cosmetic upgrades to Klipschorns on ebay, and then horn and driver upgrades, then finally starting his own company and producing his own speakers. He was definitely inspired by Klipsch.

Greg was a klipsch owner for many years. He was also a regular on the klipsch community forum for a long time. When he decided to start making speakers it was received with mixed reviews by the members there. So eventually I think he just bowed out.

I agree with your assessment of the CWs.  However, can you share where the Volti Rivals are $8,900 - or a mere $2,300 more than the CWs?  Perhaps I'm not looking in the right place, buy I show them starting at $16,000 a pair.  It's primarily the cost that's keeping me from replacing my Klipsch Belles.
