Any experience with OSD Audio Aurum Premium speaker cables?
-
In a week I will be receiving my new Hi-Fi system.
Yamaha A-S2100
Yamaha CD-S2100
Klipsch Cornwall IIII was wondering if you have any recommendations for speaker cables for the Cornwalls?
I dont want it to sound to bright on the top end..
Would you recommend banana or spade connectors?

I was wondering if you foresee any problems putting a Klipsch Heresy III on top of a R115SW subwoofer?
Removing the small base on the Heresy, so it will be standing flat on it, not tilted. -
I am about to pull the trigger on purchasing a pair of Cornwall to put in our main living room.
The size is; 16.5 x 29.5 ft..
I am planning on putting the speakers in the middle of the 29.5ft wall.. 9-12ft apart from each other.
Now, on the opposite side, there are two large windows, 11ft long x 7ft high.. with a fireplace in between them, 6.5ft between the two windows.
What I am worried about... will these speakers be to big, and might do some damage to these windows in the long run?I mean, fluctuations or bass constantly moving the window panels, might break the seal between the two panels and let air in between them.
Am I beging paranoid? -
We are building a new house.. and this is the living room. Its 29.5 ft Long x 16.5ft Wide.
I am thinking of placing a pair of Klipsch Cornwalls in the middle of the room.
There is a 7ft long "section" we are placing the speakers between.
At the opposite side, there is a fireplace, and two 11ft long, floor to ceiling windows.
The drawings are obvious not 100% to scale... but this is the placement we are going with.

I was wondering if there are any "cheap tube amps" that play well with the Cornwall III?
Main goal:
1. They give great fun sound,
2, Does not hizz or hum when not playing.. A quiet amp.
And, if it comes with XLRs, even better.

Oops.. Marantz 8077

We are building a HT room, at the end of our house. Its not 100% acoustically treated.. so no ear bleeding sound levels.. but immersive.
We are most likely getting a PJ, but as the room is 11.5ft (W) x 16.5ft (L) x 9ft (H), and we should be able to put in a 140" 2.35:1 screen but its a tight fit...
However, there might be TV, for a year or two, until 4K PJ comes down in price. A 75", sitting 5-10 ft is planned at first.
Now, the equipment:
Oppo 205
Marantz 8802a
5.1 with the hopefully the same L-C-R speakers, and the using the option of playing dedicated L-R for stereo.
I have 3 options for the L-C-R..
1. 3 x Klipsch Cornwall III
2. 2 x Klipsch Cornwall III + 1 Klipsch Heresy III (Center)
3. 3 x Klipsch Heresy III + 2 x R-115SW
The idea is, that I might not need a SW with option 1?
Or do you belive I need it?.. its a small room.
The back surrounds are RP-250s.

And, I sort of dream of getting 3 more Cornwalls, if I get an OK of converting the room to a HT.
But maybe thats to much for the small room.. maybe just 4. One in each corner.

We are building a house, and I have sort of gotten a OK of transforming a gust room to a AV room. Sort of.. its supposed to be used for guests and home office occasionally, so I can´t go full AV.
The room is, 11.5 ft x 16.5 ft., with a long slender window above the speakers and 6ft window on the oppsing wall, aswell as a glass door. I am putting heavy drapes across them.
Running Cornwalls, in such a small room, in a 2.0 system, would I be missing out on the surrond experience? Or would their massive soundstage kind of neglect it?
The TV will be a 75" ULTRA HD 4k, running the new Oppo ( when it releases) sitting 6-7ft away from it and the speakers.

Hi.
First time poster here..We are building a house, and I have sort of/kind of/maybe gotten myself a dedicated listening/Tv room.. its supposed to be a spare bedroom and sometimes used as a home office. So, unfortunately I can`t go full AV room.. there are compromises. The room is 11,5ft x 16,5ft, 8,8ft tall, with a long skinny window up by the ceiling where I am placing the speakers, and a glass door and 6ft window on the opposite end. These two I am going to put heavy drapes across.
I have always wanted a Marantz PM11 S3 & SA11 S3... and combine it with a Klipsch Cornwall. The build quality of the Marantz are very nice.. and the solid long living Cornwall intrests me quite a bit.
I am however not sure, how Marantz and Klipsch goes togheter. Would any of you have reservations regarding this match?
In between these, I am putting a 75" Ultra HD, 4K LED tv.. and running Blue Rays through a Oppo UDP 205 ( whenever it releases)... at a distance of 6-7ft
( Or, do you feel I would need to "upgrade to 5.1" for the imersive movie watching.. considering the large Cornwalls ability to really express themselves in such a sized room)
The primary reason for it, is listening to music. But also, function as a "Home Theater" once in a while.. would the Cornwalls, be to large for this room?

Speaker cables for Cornwall III?
in 2-Channel Home Audio
Posted · Edited by Northman
My local dealer has them.. but have not heard of OSD Audio before.
My first idea was Kimber 4 or 8TC.. but would have to order them online.
But not sure if these goes well with the Cornwalls?
