I just got my Cornwall IV’s about 2 glorious weeks ago. They are no where near broken in, but they are an absolute joy to listen to. I’m hearing things I never heard before and sometimes it gives me goosebumps.
Wow! Reminds me of my system from 1977 until 1984-McIntosh MA6100, Klipsch Cornwalls, Technics SL-1950. I still listen to my MA6100 with my 1981 Klipschorns! I miss my Cornwalls and will never forget the joy they brought to me. Enjoy the music from your new system!
I recently purchased the Heresy IV and I'm in love. Paired with a MA5100, I wish I had the funds for the Cornwall's at the time. But hopefully one day. Great video as always, and the setup looks so dialed! Congrats on the find!
Great video and happy to see you enjoying your new finding. Lots of work and research necessary for great vintage gear, far more than going to a shop and buying stuff in a brand new box. Major celebration when you hit 10,000!
Great find, congrats! For me, Klipsch Heritage are pure joy. These might just stick around long-term for you. ✌️ I bought a fixed-up pair of Chorus 2's and I am thrilled. Chorus 2 is between Cornwall & Forte size-wise. The vivid tone, amazing texture and effortless dynamics make my rock and jazz collection sound sublime. They cured my upgrade-itis too. Enjoy!
Congrats on your new speakers. Very cool! I could hear your enthusiasm. ♥️ I loved shopping at Absolute Vinyl. What an incredible store. That's where I found my DSOTM 30th anniversary reissue among other things. Have fun!
Tim congratulations on your new addition...I've had opportunity to listen to some klipsch at Axpona big hifi show in Chicago and their low end is phenomenal...amazing what a fifteen inch woofer can do to open up the soundstage and make everything come together from top to bottom. Now you can go back and listen to all your favorites, hearing them for the first time...ENJOY!!!
I have a pair of Klipsch KG 2 Bookshelf Speakers from 1986, bought them as soon as I graduated college and got a job. Never found a reason to replace them, they still sound amazing.
congrats Tim...I think the longer you listen to those speakers the more you'll love 'em. I've had the IV's about 15mo's and am impressed daily. Oh, and fuck that tool, Morph is a great listen
Beautiful new speakers, Tim. All of the heritage line seems to be pretty top notch. Just got a pair of Fortes from my neighbor, but they haven’t replaced my Tektons yet….who knows. Congrats again on the new speakers. I’m sure you’ll enjoy them for a long time to come.
Good lookin speakers!! I’ve been listening to my Cornwall iv’s for a couple of years now. I LOVE them. While curiosity definitely has me looking into other speakers, I definitely don’t NEED anything else. Enjoy!!! Great channel BTW.
I know many, including Klipsch themselves, recommend crossing the tweeters’ axes in front of the listening position as you have done. I have Cornwall IVs (have also had 1s and 2s) and experimented with this approach. I have found that toeing them in slightly so that the left tweeter is pointed at your left shoulder and vice versa provides the best soundstage and smoothest response. Looks like you found yourself a stunning pair!! Congrats!
Tim congrats to my fellow Cornwall owner, they are timeless classic and super easy to drive 1 watt is all you need to drive them puppies i have a Chronus tube amp with mine. my set are the Oiled walnut love them The Heresy is not quite the same in the area of bass for output i have a first gen set of those same finish you have on your set raw birch
@@Universityofvinyl Probably best to get familiar with your new Cornwalls II for now but in the future, I would suggest an upgraded crossover network which you can easily swap in the future. It won’t affect the value or originality since the swap is totally reversible since all of the network components are a fixed to a board. Just a matter of reconnecting driver wires. Another tip. If you will happen to have larger group of people and larger/wider sweet spot is required, angle right speaker (tweeter) at your left shoulder and the same for left speaker. So the direct line from both tweeters crosses a foot or so, in-front of your face.
Congratulations on those Cornwall's Tim! Like you I was about to go with some Heresy IV's and just could not pull the trigger. I've been watchin videos and reading review for months. I have much less space in my listening room, only about a 7-8 foot max triangle and wasn't sure the IV's would work. I ended up going with some Zu's and once I got them placed correctly, it opened up a whole new experience that I'm loving now. I know you're going to go back through your collection and re-listen to all your faves to hear how they sound!
Hi Tim, Don in NE Fort Fun here. I dropped in to hear what your first experience with the Cornwall IIs was, and was delighted when you mentioned you are in Fort Collins. I've long been sure that there must be lovers of superbly recorded hi fi music here, but just never ran into any before now, other than a few that I've coaxed onto the periphery, so to speak. I am not much a vinyl guy any more, but I get the fascination and recall fondly the endless youthful hours flipping through bins at Bach or Rock ($4 LPs!) and Rocky Mountain Tapes and Records here in the Fort. My thing is DIY audio because it's how I am able to afford top tier sound quality to serve my love for unveiled music playback such as your Cornwalls are delivering. Klipsch Forte 1s were my gateway drug to high efficiency dynamics and I possess what I call "an embarrassment of Klipsches" 😁 but my go-to system---when temperatures in my unheated barn's man-loft facilitate---is a Frankenstein collection of scrounged, mostly "pro" drivers centered around LaScala bass horns and gigantic Electro-Voice mid horns, all actively multiamped via DSP, which you can view and sample on my embryonic YT channel. Would love to meet you and give you a tour and audition sometime! Cheers!
Congrats on the new Klipsch speakers! I'm sure that they pair will with that McIntosh amp. I still am using my old Boston Acoustics A120's and still enjoy them considering the size of my room.
Hey Tim- Welcome to the Klipsch Club!! So great to see you got some serious speakers- very nice! Bought a pair of KLF 20's new in 2001- still have them-but they are packed away-why? Because I'm now running a pair of Cornwall IVs. It took a while to break them in, but they have really opened up. I use them with either my Marantz 2325, or an HH Scott 222C tube amp. I have a Technics 1200g and an Ortofon MC cart, and the sound is mind- bogglingly good. I have had zero listener fatigue. Re-discovering your record collection all over again with those new speakers must be a real joy. Check out an OG of The Royal Scam- the kick drum and bass is insane. Congrats!!
Congrats on your new speakers Tim! I had a pair of Cornwall 1's with the cane grills. Looks like your 2's have the same grills. I always thought the Cornwalls put you into the music while the others you are a spectator listening. Now I have the Heresy 4's because I had to downsize lol
Just discovered your channel. Enjoying the knowledge you share. Also excited to see you enjoying vintage Cornwalls. I discovered vintage Heritage speakers a long time ago. I now have Khorns, LaScalas and two pairs of Heresy. Yes...I have a problem. I own other brands, but none give me the emotional connection that the Heritage line does. I hope you have a long lasting relation with them. :). Perhaps my favorite album on mine is Chicago II. What can be said...horns do horns justice.
I was in a shop listening to the Cornwall 4 through a streaming service last week. They sounded great but not what could have through an analogue system. Songs I knew didn't have the bass they should have had. I'm on the fence about them but I think I'm going to take the plunge next month. They are extraordinary.
Hi Tim, congrats to the Cornwall. They look beautiful and i wish i could hear them. Yesterday i "accidently" saw one of your videos and found so much in common, that i watched a lot of your previous videos just to confirm that. In my livingroom i have a pair of Klipsch Forté that are driven by a Sony TA-F 870 ES. I listen also with two vintage japanese truntables from the beginning of the eighties. Furthermore our music taste is overlapping so much that i got more curious what your listening to. Steely Dan / D. Fagen are in my alltime top 10 artists ever. I also think that in the Dan catalog Goucho is a bit underrated. A perfect Album for me on so many levels. But not to bore the rest of the viewers i send you a short note through your contact formular. Sorry for the bad grammar and cheers from Bavaria, Tom.
I found a set of mint used Heritage Fortes I speakers about 1.5 hrs away back in the early spring. I've had them a while now and they've been amazing. I have done a lot of research on re-capping them with Crites crossover kits. Have you looked into that? I'll probably do it this February, a good birthday gift. Congratulations on the Cornwalls!! In 2025, I either want a set of new Cornwalls or Fortes, I just don't know what is the right thing to do. I have a 15' X 21' room and the Fortes certainly fill the room, heck the whole 3,800 sqft house.
Hi Tim from Ontario, Canada!! I'm new to your channel but I'm not new to you. I have seen you a number of tines on Steve Westman's channel and I have to admit?? I get frustrated because for everything that you are present in his roundtables you're not given much of a voice and that infuriates me. No, I won't like sleep over it...l!! But it is annoying to see you many times just sitting there...albeit patiently while others go off and on about silly things. Regardless of that I am so happy you got your Klipsch Cornwalls...they look like beasts and I can only imagine what they sound like. I'm slso happy you got a one on one with Kevin Gray. Gonna watch more of your videos. Hope all is well with you and hopefully we can chat soon. Cheers!! Darrin
WOW! You are always surprising me Bro... All this vocal stuff and then *BAM!* FRANK ZAPPA, Yeah Baby! 😁👍 I have just about everything he has done. Probably one of my very favourite guitarists ever. I think I have that same Herbie pressing, 1973 with the black 'B', right? Sounds great! Got many others of his early pressings too. BTW, if you ever get a chance to hear Chad's 2-45 pressing of Herbie's Head Hunters, you will be blown away! Oh HELL YEAH, You can *totally* tell the new speakers sound great, good for you Tim! They appear to be arranged more symmetrically than you had the other ones. Not to be critical, but I always kind of cringed a little seeing the way you used to have one speaker turned in and the other looked like it was straight out. But these look like you have set up more equally. FWIW, it looks a *LOT* better and I would bet that your imaging is also much better too! 👍
Bravo, Tim. I so would like a pair of those. I'll just stick to my wharfedale xarus 5000s that were dumped in the back alley in good condition. I too watch the usual suspects reviewers. I'm more attuned to Darko as he loves electronic music as do I. Happy listening. Darren.
Nice upgrade, the BAs were the weak link. I have three Gaucho pressings, two of the jackets say promo but not on the labels, and all have MCA embossed in the covers' upper right hand corner, did not see that in your copy.
Interesting, have never seen MCA embossed on upper right corner. Checking Discogs they show a repressing with MCA in gold stamp but still has Masterdisk and RL. It was a ‘Super Savers’ copy. Is that what you have?
That’s great and I can see the Joy in your Heart! So nice to have the new space. I need to get my Thorens TD-145 turntable running. Is there a service company in New Hampshire? Thought you may have mentioned it? Thank You
I’m only 2 hours from NH Thank You! I can’t stop dreaming about having speakers like yours someday maybe refinance the house and work the payment in Lol

I've always wanted to check these out. Congrats!
Thanks!
I am so happy for your upgrade and love the way you share your emotions about music.
Thanks for listening
Beautiful speakers Tim, I’m a big fan of cornwalls.
Thanks Bob 👍🏻👍🏻
Congrats on the upgrade Tim! I bet they sound great.
My favorite local record store, Dave's in Berkeley, CA has 4 Cornwall's at his store. I upgraded to the LaScala's myself back in 2021. I love them.
I got La Scalas last year. Had not expected them to sound so great at low volumes.
I have a pair of Klipsch KG 2 Bookshelf Speakers from 1986, bought them as soon as I graduated college and got a job. Never found a reason to replace them, they still sound amazing.
Nice ✌🏻
I just listened to Zappa ‘Watermelons in the hay’ on my Cornwalls. Great one!

Off topic but this came to mind when you were discussing the albums you played to audition the new speakers…

Thanks
Will expound on this soon
Congrats on the new speakers. Is that where there are located when you listen? Have you tried pulling them away from the wall? Now that you have high efficiency speakers you might want to hear them powered by a single ended tube amplifier.

do you need a sub with those ?
Nope
The cornwalls are my favorite speakers ever. I thought you need to have the speakers at least six feet away from your turn table. That's the only thing that scares me about your system
In all my reading, research I haven’t heard that advice RE turntable proximity. Not seeing any issues here ATM. Thanks
If turntable is too close to the speakers it can pick up the vibrations. Other than that there is nothing to worry about.
Klipsch Corwall 2 vs Tannoy Berkeley❓
I would rather hear the speakers before someone's opinion.
