    Can't wait to hear these, or maybe even own a pair. These are legendary for me. My buddy back in the late 80's went all out on a home stereo system including a full yamaha rack and a pair of Cornwall II's. Didn't take long and things were flying off the wall and the shelves in the house were rattling. This system was so much better than anything that any of us had ever heard and I'm looking forward to getting near some III's and possibly IV's.

    I just bought a pair of these from Cory last week. I'm loving them so far! Great midrange for vocals, guitars and snare drums. They give a nice sense of space and air with a rich tonality. Great with all genres of music. I also found a mild bump in bass eq to round them out nicely.

      Agreed, I watch movies which of course have music soundtracks which I enjoy a hell of a lot more than I just listening to 2 Channel audio streaming. I even enjoy watching music videos a hell of a lot more than just sitting there without the TV on ! No one really talks home theater for the most part which is just so surprising to me. What I do want to try is integrated amp versus my AVR receiver but from what I can gather here on CZcams I'm not going to really hear that much of a difference because I do have a good AVR? I also have high or should I say semi High sensitivity speakers JBL and it seems like these ultra-expensive amps aren't really necessary for these type of speakers!

      Tristan Jones not at all. Cornwalls are fantastic speakers and have better bass but the LaScalas utilize the same tweeter and midrange horn as the Khorns. I have the bottom end covered with the JTR Captivator RS2’s.
      Some guys have built a CornScala to get the best mids and highs from the LaScalas and pair it with the better bottom end from the Cornalls.

And that's being nice!😉😇🤗 You like your La'scala's and I know from watching your channel you got those things Dirt Cheap used! If you paid 16 grand for the klipschorns you'd be pissed off seeing what you can get from JTR that is!🤪🤪🤯🤯🤓🤗😇 and again, I only know this because of your CZcams channel! But I've learned about the Klipsch speaker internals from watching other channels and they're pretty poorly made inside for the money one is paying! All you ever hear is they're made in America I mean that only get you so far? Aren't JTR speakers made in America? Just wanted your input on this Youth Man considering I saw your comment here!🤔🤔🤫🤗😇

    Just setup the Klipsch Cornwall IIIs that I recently bought at a good discount with a 6 wpc SET amp. Sounds very good. What you put in, you get out. The good recordings sound very good. e.g. listening now to Pat Metheney's Secret Story, Brian Eno Ambient Series. No harshness at all. Playing both CDs and streaming Tidal via Audirvana using an MHDT DAC. You really need a big room to use these speakers properly. I got them off the floor and onto dollies making it very easy to make fine adjustments. Put them 3" from the corner walls with a slight toe-in and the bass tightened up and became really big.

    Hi ! I need your opinion in something, I currently own 2 SVS PB-2000 & Klipsch 504 Center... and very crappy L-R as well as surrounds... Should I get a Pair RP-600M Bookshelf with a pair of RP500SA for atmos on top of the bookshelf (and potentially send those to surround back in the future ) OR get a Pair of towers now like the RP-280FA with atmos enable ? (and then worry about the surround in the future ) The price is almost the same, but the bookshelf are like 3 years newer and better horn... but in the other hand the towers are two 8 inches with a 6.5 inches atmos enable I believe- will those towers will be good for a few years or always better buy as new as possible if that means getting small woofers... Thank you all ! 🙂

    Techno Dad I salute you and I really appreciate your opinion that you transmit on your channel, I have seen the video of these new Klipsch Cornwall IV, and I have decided to buy them on my next birthday, but I have a question about the amplifier that will be used for these speakers, currently I have an Onkyo M-5000R amplifier (80 watts per channel) and an Onkyo P-3000R preamplifier. Are these kits ideal for my new Cornwall IV? I appreciate you can help me know if it's the right thing, thanks..

    • @TechnoDad
      @TechnoDad  Před 4 lety

      Hello Gonz! Thank you for your kind words and also for watching. Looking at that amplifier, I would say you'll be just fine. These speakers won't need more than 20 - 25 watts to make your ears bleed. Sure, If you are sitting 20 feet back, maybe. But I think you'll be solid with the Cornwalls and your current Onkyo setup. Make sure to contact my man Cory as I think he has quite a few in stock - bit.ly/TDPHTFB - Also, when is your birthday?

    Other than the natural ability of musicians, its the sound engineer that make the band sound great. Yep, you got an ear for detail!
    Running speakers without a center channel will really let you know if they are good at imaging. If you get a good stereo image (phantom center channel) and they sound good, you got a keeper. Thanks for letting us know about the Klipsch in this regard.
    Once upon a time Klipsch made speakers with silk dome tweeters. I had a pair of Klipsch KG3 which cost me a bloody fortune as a college student, but dang were those speakers enjoyable.
    Enjoyed the review. Good job.

    Since Audiovox purchased Klipsch the evolution of the company has been to De-Horn the sound of the horn speakers that Paul Klipsch made famous and people loved for the distinct "horn sound". "Mumps" is yet another incarnation brought into the post Paul Klipsch company to De-Horn the sound of a horn speaker to make it sound more like a conventional speaker. Not good at all but Klipsch marketing uses videos like this to make the case that the present company is evolving instead of devolving the classic Klipsch sound. "It sounds better-trust what we're telling you!" Nope! Side by side the Klipsch Forte II sounds much better than the "wave guide horn" sound of the Forte III. Current Klipsch marketing would tell you this is not so but your ears tell you a different story. Also after Audiovox purchased Klipsch they have hyper-inflated Heritage model speaker pricing to recoup the money they spent acquiring the company. Forte II's msrp in the mid 1990's of a $1000 per pair are now priced at $4000 a pair for the Forte III - far inflating the price of the speakers of what normal inflation pricing would require in today's dollars.
