Dave my biggest question is about the construction of the cabinet, it seems like the cabinet id started out as a plywood vented enclosure, then a second layer of appearance grade wood (oak, etc.) is applied over that. Is this so?
But I also heard that the only stupid question is the one not asked.
Anyhoo
I have a pair of Klipsch RF3's & RF3-II's, and I will be picking up my Heresies real soon, I wanted to know how the Heresies would compare to my other speakers in sound (powered by Denon 3802).
I need internal pics of a Cornwall, I need to get a good idea of the layout and where everything goes so I can partake on my DIY Cornwall project. I have measurements already, but I need a visual example. I'm kinda playing by ear because I've never even seen a pair in person.
Me and my fellow Klipschters down here in So. Florida only go to sound advice just to see what kind of Klipsch deals they have at the time or to audition new products. I got all my Klipsch from Sound Advice, and am looking to uprgrade to an RF7 set-up, w/o Sound Advice this feat would have been a far bigger challenge, because I'd rather not ship those babies.
Would I be cheating myself if I built a pair of Cornwalls to exact Klipsch specs using the proper equipment? I know the authenticity would not be there but would the sound and "feel" be there?
You've pretty much hit the nail on the head... also I like trying new things, well tubes are not so new, but new for me, people are raving about tubes, I wanna hear for myself.
LMAO!!!!
Well I saw it on ebay for about 20 bucks, and it is vintage, and it does have tubes... well as you can see I'm a naive, in-experienced, wanna-be tuber... but I guess we al must learn some how some way.
