I realize this is an old post but she asked excellent questions and the same question was not repeated three times. Each question was different. Mr. K mostly chose to discuss distortion. 1. What's missing from a Klipschorn? 2. What would be the difference with a symphony between a radio and when you build the Klipschorn? 3. What sounds better about a Klipschorn? 4. What was the purpose of a center channel speaker? I would love to hear his answers to all these questions.

Brutal. 🤣

Had I not tried it for myself, I wouldn't really know.

Curious if others have tried this. Would love to hear your opinions. Thanks guys. ---daniel

I compared the two here for those who may be interested. I mostly covered their sound characteristics.

It's not a room issue.

That depends on your interpretation of sound. Pairing makes a huge difference.

It's a well known issue. I think it's around 400hz on down, you get a boxy resonance. Even in my video comparison it's very audible.

In my opinion, based on my listening experiences with the Heresy IV's, I think Klipsch should rework the issues with box resonance on the IV and I think it would be an even greater speaker by comparison. Other than this issue, I really think the IV is a sweet little speaker that deserves most of the positive recognition it has gotten. The improvements Klipsch made to the bass are wonderful. Even though the bass is not as audible at low volume levels compared to my Forte I's, the Heresy IV is still a sweet little speaker in my opinion. Happy listening, ---daniel

Good point, I agree.

I'm talking about bass only.

Well the Cornwall IV's have less bass than the Forte I's.

How about compared to your Cornwalls?

Demos about halfway through for those interested.

A/B comparisons are the best way to evaluate speakers.
