They are in a 2nd system. I would guess I have between 50 and 70 hrs. Still bright and a bit lacking in bass

What do you think of their sound?
What amp are you using to drive them?
You have to be a "subscriber" in order to post pic's.

This may sound like a silly question but, if I’ve heard and liked the Forte and I’ve heard and loved the La Scala.
will I also like the Cornwall’s?
My local dealer has the first two but for some odd reason not the Cornwall. I loved the La Scala however besides the big jump in price they’re kinda overkill for my room.

Could someone who has the Cornwall IVs comment on how they handle classical music? I've watched and read the reviews of them that I can find but this aspect is usually not addressed. One person said, "Just don't play a string quartet on them." Is that useful advice?

Thanks.

Have they mellowed? I've always found Klipsch to be a bit fatiguing after a while.

Either they have or I’m getting use to them.

Has anyone compared the Cornwall IV’s with DeVore Orangutan 0/96s ? Amplification is First Watt J2 and Pass Labs XA25.

Would appreciate your opinions...........thanks.

Richard - perhaps you need more power.

Seriously, I'm interested in CW IV owners' thoughts on listening at low levels. My listening is primarily at sub-80db, which is pretty quiet by most folks standards. I know the CW IVs will play loud, but do they produce a great sound at moderate-to-low levels? Thanks for your input.
