We did not have a lot of time to compare the speakers. They were set up side-by-side at the Klipsch factory in Hope, Arkansas. Swapped back and forth between them. The Cornwall I vocals seemed a little 'tinny' and not as clear as the III's. Bass on the III was a little stronger.
The CW I had good caps in the crossover, the Klipsch engineers had run a bunch of tests on it, and concluded the crossover was working correctly.
The CW III is on the left, CW I on the right. The woofer on the III is higher than the I. This is to smooth out the bass response.
Notice the III is taller than the I. No sonic advantage...small stand makes it easier to use the vacuum cleaner.
Tony,
I would go over to the Klipsch forum and post your question. The man you need to talk to is Roy Delgado...he worked with Paul on the Jubilees and has proven to be very helpful.
I will try to contact Roy at Klipsch on their forum......Bay City is about 4-5 hours from here, but it may be worth the pilgrimage to see what I'm going to spend my time and money on:bigsmile:
I know by reading the threads that quite a few people talked about getting plans to build the base units. Even with as little experience as I have in this, I would think building the mid to high range would be a cake walk with some good direction since I already own the bases.
I picked these 3 bases up for under $1000, so I hopefully made a good decision....
Yep. That's one thing that people can't take away from Klipsch is the loyal customer base and the dedication to them. I'm a Klipsch owner myself with 2 pairs of Epic CF-4's and a KV-4 center. I just like the company, the homegrown Indiana USA spirit and the big efficient effortless sound that Klipsch is known for.
Trey Cannon is a stand up guy. I was asking about replacement parts over at the Klipsch forum and he ended up sending me a set of ports, 2 complete CF4 crossover's and some old literature on them for free. :T
