Product Description
This famed speaker, now dubbed the Cornwall III, is back and better than ever. A three-way design using horn-loaded compression drivers for the midrange and treble and a direct-radiating 15-inch woofer for the low frequencies, the Cornwall delivers the full-range bass response of the Klipschorn with sensitivity and output approaching the fully horn-loaded models. The Cornwall III now includes a riser-base, which was optional in previous versions.

Superb Sound Quality October 15, 2008

I bought the Cornwall as I heard they were an affordable alternative to the Klischorn. The sound quality and precision is incredible! These speaker thrive on hard pounding rock music. For concert videos and live performances the sound is simply incredible. You really don't need a powered sub as the bass perofrmance of these speakers is outstanding.
Only downside is size, weight and SAR (Spousal Acceptance Factor). These speakers look and sound like the roadies should be wheeling them in for a concert. If you are cool with their bulk you simply cannot buy a better sounding speaker for rock music regardless of price.
Pretty amazing September 29, 2007

This is a big, powerfull speaker that really speaks for itself, from low volume to really high volumes, very few speakers can hold up in comparison, these are capable of 101 db @ 1 watt/ 1 meter. this alone and the capability to go into the 120 + db range make these a really powefull addition to any home stereo or home theatre system.
The dynamic range and absoulte sound capabilities of these speakers is only rivaled by a few other products from this company, Klipsch is the oldest American speaker manufacturer and for good reason, they don't make poor quality stuff. They are clear and articulate from low (conversation level) volume, to cranking "The Fast and The Furious".
Like any product from the heritage line of Klipsch, it is an investment, I have had mine for over 20 yesrs and they handle the new digital technology with the same incredible sound quality they did back in the analog days.
