Dave I used to have a pair of Cornwalls but they really had to be turned up too loud to get the best sound out of them. I had a dual amp system were you could run 2 sets of speakers with different volume imputs for each speaker and could blindfold someone and switch back and forth between them and the bose system and nobody could tell the difference but the bose sounded better at lower levels. Surprised me but for the room I was using them in they were just too big.

Oh and Dave Hugh is only about 70 miles away and is a trip.
