| Klipsch Cornwall IV I have been listening to the CW IV since December in my room. They are staying put. To me, they sound like a live production. The create a large, seamless soundstage--once I dialed in the positioning, which was surprisingly harder to do than I t... | |
| Can anyone recommend a printable label for vacuum tube boxes? Awesome! Thank you. That was easy! What other problems can you solve? :) | |
| Dream Speakers = landed. Now I need to feed them! My understanding is technology has changed so much in 25 years that a 25 year old DAC, while it may be decent today, can be bettered by many options in today's market. I saw a ML 36 DAC for $1500 used somewhere recently. I'll be honest--I'm not ... | |
| Dream Speakers = landed. Now I need to feed them! Great. Keep us posted. I'm glad to hear you found your speaker soulmate! | |
| Dream Speakers = landed. Now I need to feed them! JerkFace, I’m not in a good spot to recommend the Carver over another amp specifically. That’s a decision for you! Both are well made and offer a lot for the money. I’ve heard them both but not with your speakers in your room. Speaking of which,... | |
| Dream Speakers = landed. Now I need to feed them! Take a look at this: https://doge.audio/product/doge-5-padc/ This one is around $1k.And, unless someone can tell you (a) they have looked inside a Doge; (b) they've heard one; and (c) they have dealt with the company--don't listen to statements... | |
| Dream Speakers = landed. Now I need to feed them! Hi Jerkface! If you are going to hold off on a move until you can do tubes, the advice above about pairing a Carver 275 with Klipsch is good--in my experience. The Crimson 275 sings with Klipsch heritage/vintage stuff. But that would still require... | |
| MHDT Labs Orchid DAC review Great review! Enjoy your music! | |
| Best DAC / Budget @smaarch1, I too had this problem. I'm pretty sure I posted a few years back about getting my digital side to be as enjoyable as my analog side. Like you, I had a tube integrated, but I still didn't feel things sounded compelling enough or full... | |
| A Hidden "Feature" of the Cornwall IV @rauliruegas , what speakers would sound as great at these but would meet your “objective” thresholds? I’m curious. | |
| Say a fella wants to build an SET monoblock based on the 300B.. The Elekit 300B is wonderful. But, it's not mono block. | |
| A Hidden "Feature" of the Cornwall IV @buddy and @jet88, I have not heard the Cornwall IVs with the Yammy or Lux, but I bet both would be great. I didn't have great luck pairing my Forte IIIs with Class D--just too lean, clean, and sterile. I loved them with a Creek integrated. ... | |
| A Hidden "Feature" of the Cornwall IV @smatsui , Wonderful backstory and review. Thank you! PS-- Like me (and Ozzy) Klipsch must be paying you. Unlike Ozzy and me, your checks must be larger than ours! | |
| A Hidden "Feature" of the Cornwall IV I, too, would love to hear the Forte IV. I sold my Forte IIIs and they were wonderful. I would have kept them forever but I need the money and space for the Cornwall IVs. | |
| Jazz listening: Is it about the music? Or is it about the sound? True, OP, very true. |
