Hello everyone, I registered on this forum as I recently bought a pair of 1983 Heresy (some people call them 1.5) and I listen to the dynamic/fast/sweet sound that comes out with ease. My background is analog tape recorders and vinyl and lately computer audio via a great DAC. Amplifiers SS and tube back and forth. The other speakers are both bookshelf acoustic suspension (one pair - a sophisticated sound US made and the other pair some modern german made powered studio monitors). I found a pair of Cornwall II close to me advertised as "excellent condition with all original parts" and I would appreciate any opinion on the upgrade that may take place. They are priced at USD 800 (or CAD 1250), triple the price I paid for the Heresy pair, half of the other ones. Price is not my main concern but it is an important factor too. The upgrade in sound quality is what I need advice on. I listen to jazz, some classical and older rock/pop and analog recordings made with tube mastering gear or copies from master tapes. Digital audio (hi-rez via macbook and amarra player out to the custom DAC) works too but on a different enjoyment level. Thank you so much for sharing your experience!
