Guttenberg's Cornwall IV Review -- I'm in trouble


https://youtu.be/M8H3Wx80V3Y

He directly compares the Cornwall IV to the Forte III (which I own).  This is dangerous for me because his points on the differences between the C-wall and Forte hit home.  

I'm calling the credit cards telling them any purchase involving audio in the next 60 days should be flagged as fraudulent! That should stop me, right? 

Kidding aside, I'm dying to hear the Cornwall IV.  If you have heard them, please chime in!

I currently own Forte I and Forte II each with Crites crossovers and Ti tweeters.  I actually prefer the Forte I as the Forte II is a tad too bright in the midrange.  I bought and sold Forte III because they were even BRIGHTER in the midrange.      I bought and sold Cornwall III because the cabinet resonance was overwhelming the midrange detail.   Because of this cabinet resonance I am very wary of buying Cornwall IV.  The Cornwall III got just as much universal praise as the Cornwall IV and I find I just cannot trust universal praise.  It seems if someone pays a lot of money for something, they seldom admit to any shortcomings.  I, on the other hand, have no problem with admitting I made a purchase mistake.   I am VERY INTERESTED in hearing Cornwall IVs because if they got rid of the cabinet resonance then I would love to have a set.
