    Exactly!

    You will notice a fuller sound, deeper bass, superior clarity, and dynamics you have never heard before. Out goes thin, bright sound when you have a good, solid, high-end amplifier that delivers high current and high power. It has nothing to do with loudness; it has to do with superior control and power reserve, like cruising at 80 miles on a highway with a V12 engine versus a 4-cylinder car.

    If grills were included the price would be $2,999.00

    $2,500.00 FIRM. No low-ball offers, I know what I got!

    My comment was only to educate the seller on the value of his speakers. No one will offer him anywhere near his asking price. I hope he finds someone willing to pay 4K a pair. GLWS.

    They are worth about $1,700 tops. GLWS.

    Take a look at the SVS Micro 3000 Should fit the bill based on your response.

    JP_NH perhaps it is the angle of the photo, but your fortes appear to be awfully close to the rear wall. Those passive radiators need some room to breathe. I have found that a minimum of 8 inches provides the best sound in my various listening areas. Glad you are happy with your purchase. The forte INMHO is the Goldilocks of the Heritage lineup.

    Nice review. What version of forte do you own? I had forte II for almost 30 years and upgraded to IVs about a year and a half ago. I have heard Cornwall IV although not in my listening room. I actually prefer the forte IV in the bass department. INMHO punchier. The Cornwall is a great speaker in its own right, however there is something about the forte line that I cannot replace. How large is your listening area? If considering purchasing new, INMHO the WOW factor over the forte is not there for me. IF you go with Cornwall, I hope it meets your expectations and delivers that WOW factor for you.

    As Woofers and Tweeters stated a recap would set you up for another 30 years or so. In addition, applying a coat of Howard's Feed & Wax semi-annually will keep the cabinets looking great as well. What is the full serial number? I, or others could date year for you with. My 1992 fortes are now being enjoyed by another forum member. I bought a pair of forte IV about a year and a half ago.
