Thats correct. I never thought about this. I tried a cheap lightweight amp. Sounded crap in upper frequency but bass had more body. Ok.. My Hegel has to go. Thanks for bringing this up.

Hmmm. Intresting thought. I try swap amp tomorrow for fun

Yes. You are into something here. Corwall bass is so tight. Never heard bass guitar and basslines so clearly before. No boomines or one note resonance. Reminds me more of La Scala bass I heard some time. Just wish it was more of it on background level. Btw. Cornwall III had way more resonances when I auditioned them. Salesman said the last edition have a better and more rigid cabinet. And the midrange seemed a lot more open. Sounds just popped out more natural and effortlessly. It was easily worth the extra cash

Maybe. I also play guitar and in the world of electric guitar I dont think you will find a player who think their brand new guitar speaker sound right. Some of it is of course ear/brain get used to the new aound but there also has to do with cloth surround that need to soften up. I see all klipsch heritage speakers has cloth surround woofers. But I donk make a clame here its also applies til klipsch. I talk to a Tannoy guy way back that said Tannoy woofers(clouth surround) could change TS parameters over time. Especially fs.

Thats what I thought too. I guess its second order all the way exept third order high pass for tweeter.

Polarity is good. Do not misunderstand me. The sound is stunning.. at high levels. It opens up and fill the room like never heard before. But most of my listening is at background level. U know, kids/family. Its like the soundstage shrinks and bass disappears while volume goes down. Hoped its because the speakers is still new and need more brake in.

One of them placed in a corner. 10 feet apart. Tried to pull them out some with no difference. Cool profile pic bob. The painter used to live in my town.

Powered with a Hegel H95. Not a powerhouse with its modest 2x60 w but with a claimed damping factor of 2000 if that mean anything. It can play louder than I can stand. Hope I could avoid the subwoofer thing with this pretty big boxes. They are placed close to backwall in a 400 ft living room

I acquired a brand new set of Cornwall IV three weeks ago and have played between 50 and 100 hours I think. Has so far not observed any changes in sound. It sounds fantastic at loud listening level. Big sound with lots of details and very tight bass. While not deep. Best I have ever heard really. Tons better than my previous Chorus II which could cut my ear off at high volume. Way too bright and shrill. The problem now is at low to medium level where it sound closed in and very lean. My Klipsch Sixes has way more bass at those levels. Hope to hear from other Cornwall IV users if this will hopefully change with more hours in them or its a common thing with these.

Have a bad driver in my chorus 2. Lots of distortion on low notes. A new driver cost a fortune where I live(Norway) so I was thinking about reconing the driver. Have not found a K48E kit on web or ebay but I see there is a K48K recone set on ebay. Will that work, or do some of you know someone who sell kit for K48E
