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


Looking for efficient speakers. I had the opportunity to listen to a Cornwall IV yesterday. It was run on nice tubes (Primaluna 400 EL34s) with a bluesound node streamer/dac.

QUESTION: I'm curious if anyone has compared CW IV with Volti Rival of Razz. Thoughts?

QUESTION 2: Anyone know what changed in the Volti Razz when it moved from v. 2 to v. 3?

Thanks

Hey everyone,

So, I’ve been wondering about Silverfox—remember him? The user who seemed to have an endless supply of enthusiasm about his speaker reports? His excitement was practically contagious! But then, poof—he vanished without a trace.

I can only come up with a couple of theories:

  1. AI Conspiracy: What if Silverfox was actually an AI bot designed to promote the company he was so ardently praising? Maybe he was too convincing, and now he's been deactivated for being too enthusiastic. “Mission accomplished, now shut down.”

  2. Home Drama: Or maybe, just maybe, his wife got fed up with his daily routine of sipping coffee and admiring his speakers. “Look, Silverfox, either you get a hobby or I’m tossing your speakers and computer out the window!” And thus, his computer—and his online presence—were no more.

But let’s not forget the third option:

  1. The Great Escape: Perhaps Silverfox has embarked on a grand adventure, escaping the confines of his audio chair and bass traps to explore the world. Maybe he’s found a new passion—like competitive duck herding or underwater basket weaving.

If anyone has any other wild theories or has seen any signs of Silverfox, let us know. Until then, keep your coffee close and your speakers closer!

We are all AI - have been for many thousands of years. Contrary to popular belief, our recent skirmish with "mass formation psychosis" did not put us to sleep. It woke us up.
