Forte III and Decware Torri MK IV Amp

Hi everyone, been reading this post ...... very interesting, brings to mind some questions.

I currently have CF-3's that I have owned since I bought them new. I have been looking at the 'little brother' to the TORII MK4, the TORII JR, from what I read on the Decware site very similar

"The JR is using the same proven if not legendary circuit used in the TORII MK4 but stripped of all non-essential features" (from the Decware site).

 Could I face the same potential issues with the CF's?

Thanks for the responses. I think I will order the Forte IIIs. I have a 60 day return window, so if they have the harsh midrange, I will send them back. 

 

Apparently, Klipsch is not using autoformers in the newer speakers. The KG 4.5s I used were from the mid '90s, and a much lower line than the Forte, so hopefully I'll be good. 

I was not aware that Klipsch used autoformers, are they the same as the Paul Speltz products?

 

Given the age of my speakers is a crossover upgrade/rebuild necessary?

All of the Klipsch Heritage originally used autoformers, on the mid compression drivers. A look at any of the older Klipsch crossovers would show you or to have a look through the thread with all the crossover schematics. I still like them for what they do, but even the ones Deang uses can add to the cost (not as much as the Zeros from Paul Speltz, though).
