JBL Summit L300 or Klipsch Cornwall for Jadis ?


I have been studying on which speaker to buy for my Jadis Orchestra Reference. So far, I have found 2 speakers that interest me, JBL Summit L300's and Klipsch Cornwalls.

I like the price of the Cornwalls and the looks of the Summits.

Could anyone who has listened to both share some thoughts on these speakers? I am really hoping to hear the singer right in the room with me. I am getting pretty close, but not quite all the way there yet.

Originally I was a stats fan, then I became a horn fan. I have real horns in my main system and Altec Model 19s in a second system. The JBL L300s definitely have the looks going for them. The Cornwalls (and the 19s) are probably a bit more sensitive. The L300 cabinet, besides looking good, is quite solidly built. I agree with Steelhead the L300s will give you pride of ownership. Unless speaker design radically changes, I expect any one of these speakers would keep a great deal of their value. I for one think the 19s, at least at the price I bought them, are one of audio's great values.
