Ciao a tutti, mi sono innamorato delle klipsch cornwall 3, visto che non ho avuto modo di ascoltare altri prodotti della stessa casa, chiedo a voi esperti se esiste un altro modello che abbia un suono simile e che magari siano anche più snelli.
In prima battuta piloterò il diffusore con un ampli yamaha a transistor, ma successivamente passerò ad u..........[CUT]
Ti rispondo copiandoti proprio una risposta data da un esperto di LA SCALAS e CORNWALLS..spero di esserti stato utile...
The Klipschorn has less midbass performance than the La Scala, but about a one octave lower bass passband. I find that's a lot to miss on the bottom end. A lot of folks also seem to place their La Scalas away from the corners, unlike Klipschorns, thus increasing midrange/midbass notches in its 100-400 Hz region due to front- and side-wall cancellations.
Many people also wind up pairing their La Scalas with subwoofers to fill in that bottom octave, but instead of using horn-loaded subwoofers, they use direct radiating subwoofers instead...vented ones, at that. So they wind up with a lot more bass distortion due to increased modulation and time-domain disturbances due to the ported subwoofer designs--something that the Khorn bass bin doesn't have.
The interesting thing is that the high efficiency full-range drivers (like Lowther, Fostex, Feastrex, etc.) will have worse bass distortion issues than the La Scalas + vented subwoofers.
For a small room, the issues are increased. Roy Delgado has said that, as the room gets smaller, the loudspeaker needs to get larger (i.e., the horns, that is). So the message is that it is a directivity issue as the room gets smaller.
Have you heard any of the Danley Synergy horns? I'm thinking that something like a pair of SH-50s (i.e., their coverage angles vertically and horizontally are 50 degrees) are what you probably need in a smaller room - essentially just like ClaudeJ1 has in his smallish room, combined with a good horn-loaded subwoofer like a TH-SPUD, DTS-10, or any of the Fitzmaurice DIY subwoofers.
The location of the loudspeakers in a small room is actually more critical than in a larger one:
The front full-range loudspeakers need to be touching the front wall (a good placement), or in the corners with suitable acoustic absorption tiles right at the mouth of the horns on the front and side walls (the best placement), with
One or two horn-loaded subs placed one in a room corner, and the other sub placed on the midpoint of a side wall.
...Then all issues with small room acoustics are...
