    You guys are doing awesome work! I am a very well seasoned audiophile and if someone would've told me 10 years or even 20 years ago I. would own Klipsch speakers I would've laughed. Bright, in your face, listener fatigue and just plain overhyped crappy sound. Boy, oh boy was I wrong! I have owned many high end speakers. Magneplanar 3.6's, Thiel 3.5's and 3,6's, NHT 3.3's, Vandersteen Signature III's, Spendor SP100's, Dahlquist DQ10's, Roger LS3/5A's and many more. Recently, I have owned Zu Omens and Wharfedale Linton Heritage. And now Cornwall IV's. Hands down the best I have owned. So damn much fun! They absolutely put a smile on my face every time I play them. NO fatigue, no "in your face" and no irritation at all. You just get toe tapping, head bouncing and jaw dropping good fun. I want to thank Audiophiliac for getting me interested in these. I actually have submitted pictures of my current system to his channel for possible inclusion in his forthcoming episode on viewers systems. Had it not been for Steve I never would've given them a shot. As I do not have a nearby dealer I shopped around and bought a "B stock" pair. Nearest dealer is a 3 plus hour drive for me. I so wish I would've purchased from you guys instead albeit at a higher price. You guys know your shit hands down and at the price of these there is no doubt that you would have your customers backs and their satisfaction as a high priority. I do not know if I will ever upgrade or change from my Cornwall's. I do know if I do, or have other equipment needs, I will assuredly call you guys! Thanks for the great Klipsch education!

      Thanks for the feedback. As has been mentioned in many interviews on many forums in the past, it's almost an emotional experience when you hear Klipsch which speaks true when you describe them as "Fun." they are that and everything you can want from a speaker. The cornwalls are amazing. For sure a game changer in this category!

    Paul visited the dealership I was managing in the early 80s. He was a great help in designing a new sound room. And yup we had kh in the corners, lascalas , heresys and Cornwall s , sold like hotcakes.

    Thanks so much Trey! The Cornwalls have a place in my heart, as I ‘ve already mentioned to you - - I bought a pair from Sound Systems in Shreveport in 1978. Wish I still had them. I sold them to a gentleman in Magnolia, whom already had a pair of them, I guess he “Quaded” them out! Another pair of Corn’s and two pair of Heresy’s later and I now have my pair of Belle’s! I’m quite content with them!

    Gee, think someone has taken notice from the DIY crowd by using a taller/larger mid-horn on the CW4's. That idea has been used for many years.
    ......dare we mention the names of Crites, "Cornscala" and others..........

    • @treycannon2275
      @treycannon2275 3 года назад +1

      They did, a long time ago when they built the Chorus. It had that larger horn. Now that it is gone, the cornwall makes sense for the next ace to use the larger horn.

      May be late, but engineering takes a bit of time. If enough fans ask, many times we see it come to fruition. All said though, with all of the updates, these sound amazing.

  • @Oldgoat912

    Thanks Trey. I purchased my Cornwall II speakers in 1978 and have been listening to them since. I still love the sound they produce, but I have nothing with which to compare them. I would like to know one thing. If I were to disconnect them from my present rather modest system and connect a set of Cornwall IVs, what would the difference be in the sound produced?
    Keeping in mind that my speakers cost me $499 each, is the Cornwall IV good value in comparison?

    • @treycannon2275
      @treycannon2275 2 года назад

      Mike, I am cheep...NO way would I swap if the 78' works fine. I can't see a change vs. cost ratio to be sound. IF I had money and no speakers, Hell yes, I would go with the new C IV.

      @@treycannon2275 thanks Trey. I always wanted the K-horns, but the price was beyond me, even back then. The Cornwalls have served me well, one of my better purchases over the decades.

    PV is better than Cornwall speaker's.
    Yes true PV PA speaker's .
    I use PV PA speaker's with my marantz stereo system and they sound clear and better without having all those two apps and all that mess half price stuff is for rich people they just behind your name to make you think it's high quality one you can go to any music store and buy better speakers Marshall PB shore we'll do a better job than the high price high speakers and apps .
