WMcD Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Per the subject line: Did anyone save the review of what was the Cornwall II. It was probably from Audio in 1969 or so. It used to be on the main site. I failed to save it to my collection and now it seems to be nowhere to be found. It is an important piece of information. For example there is a thread http://community.klipsch.com/forums/t/157552.aspx?PageIndex=1 where the august and learned Filmofreddy describes the incongruity in the Cornwall naming. I.e.: In the beginning there was a Cornwall with a vent in the back [probably in accord with PWK's long slot load per his article] with early mid and tweeters. Then the Cornwall II circa 1969 had a port in the front and mid and tweeter closer to what we usually know -- but not clustered above the woofer and with arrows on the back indicating which side should be up for landscape and portrait orientation . This was the subject of the article. Then the Cornwall came out with the mid K-600 and tweeter well above the centered woofer. And then the Cornwall II came out with plastic horns, and then Cornwall III with the bass driver moved up and using the K-700. The above is the best of my recall. Also, I believe the article / review was just about the CWII. I've seen one about the K-Horn and "CW" but it may be something different. Thank you for any info.

DizRotus Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Rusty, That's more likely the one Gil's looking for than the one I offered. Would it be possible to also attach the article as a PDF? It would be easier to read and save. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty Melton Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 If you can explain how to do it, I have no idea how. I could probably email the picture to you. Rusty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMcD Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 Many thanks Rusty. It is the article to which I was referring. The one which used to be on the main website was not set up as a handout -- like your post is set up. Yours is a nice addition to anyone's collection of literature. Gee, note the use of the term "awesome" before it became so overused. I've converted it to pdf (attached) for the use of others here.

Rusty Melton Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'm glad I could help. If anyone is interested I have all of the brouchures that came with the speakers when they were new and I'd be more than happy to post them. Some of them are really cool and have the prices and specs on them. I was glad they guy I bought them from had saved them, they were a nice addition to the speakers.
