BREAKING NEWS: traded my 6 month old Cornwall back to the dealer for MOFI 888. They arrived 2 days ago. I put 100s of hours on the CW and they stayed bass light. And a bit shouty. Dug that the 1st several weeks but it faded. Tried a few subs also,... 
Dealers with excellent listening rooms?
HiFi Sound on the edge of downtown Minneapolis has a sweet listening room. Stacked with Sonus Faber, Stenheim, Mac, lots of tasties. Slab concrete floor, treated, etc.

Hi y'all, I'm 2 weeks with the Cornwall. Will post more detailed reaction in another couple weeks as they break in. In the meanwhile, short version: no regrets! They sound big & effortless. Smooth. But still tight in the bass; def needs lots m...

BREAKING NEWS Just returned from Hifi Sound in Minneapolis where I returned solely to listen to their Cornwall IV. Never heard them prior to today. After an hour I placed my order! In Black Oak (Arkansas, ha). Ergo they'll be shipped there, then ...

@wlutke @macmx122 turns out his Cornwalls are not the IV but older version. Also, I’ve never heard Cornwalls IRL. He made me offer of $7500 on his Revel yesterday, sweet dealio I reckon but I’ve never heard them IRL is the rub. @erik_squires I ha...

@ozzy62 just read the stereophile review on the Dovedale. JA sure dug them. Similar in sound to Elysian 2 you think? @incorrigable I owned Tyler D1 back in 2012ish for maybe 6 months. 5 ft heavy beasts w/anemic bass & kept blowing tweeters. T...

@curiousjim yeah re the Triton One, after a year of enjoying them I moved from MN to NC for a girl, from my house to her condo building. Then we had ugly breakup soon after of course (she was a nitemare human, also a surgeon with god complex big t...

My rich buddy downsizing also has Revel F328Be but they’re 110lbs or something with big flight cases that also weight that much. But I could prolly get them way cheap and they’re near new. I dig my Wharfedale Evo 4.4 also. Typically I go for the ...

Used - sure.  Sound - I dig the fast open sound of Zu & Tannoy & Fyne. Smooth though. Not like monitors. And rich bass. And presence/texture.
