I found myself in a similar situation a couple of weeks ago - which to buy ? I finally decided on the Cornscala "style D". For me the choice was between the Chorus, Forte, Cornwall and Heresy, as I did not have a room that would support the K-Horn's. I immediately dropped the Heresy from consideration (limited LF response) after some sage advice from a few fellow members. Next to go was the Forte for it's lower sensitivity. I finally decided on the Cornwall, however, shipping costs and the innevitable upgrades/repairs (crossovers, diaphrams etc...) made me take a hard look at the Cornscala. After talking with Mr. Crites, I decided to go with the "style D" 2 way. Total outlay with shipping will come in somewhere in the $1500 to $1600 range. This for a baltic/Russian birch ( no mdf ) cabinet complete with cnc motorboard's ( front baffles) , crossovers, drivers etc... When I weighed that vs. $800 to $1000 for a 30 or 40 year old pair of Cornwall's plus $200 to $300 to get them shipped, then whatever upgrades/repairs may be needed, well, it was a no brainer for me. I will however, have to assemble and finish the cabinet's. This is a plus in my opinion because it will allow me to stain and poly them to whatever color I wish. As a bonus they will be dent, scratch and coffee cup ring free. Understand that I blew my initial budget all to hell as it was originally in the $700 range. I assume your budget is quite a bit higher since you are considering K-Horn's or Lascala's. I will post pic's and initial impressions of there sound as the build progress's. Good luck to you which ever way you choose to go.
