OK.....At least I Have a Koool Avatar......

I recently purchased a NOS Sony PS-X700 Biotracer. I won it on an eBay auction and my main reason for paying $255 was that I remember drooling over it when I was in college in Colorado. I guy I knew was really into high-end audio back in the early 80's. I remember listening to his system and being totally blown away.......Yes he was a Klipsch dude!!!!! Now that this turntable is on the way...does anyone here know about it? I'm hoping it sounds as good as I remember.....

he slowly removes the rope from his neck........... Thanks, I have much to learn...... Flegz..

WoW...Newbie Screw up! Didn't know there was a 1.5 version. Is there a big differenc in the way they sound? K-53 & K-701's Plastic horns............ Dosen't sound good.........E-2 crossovers, not as good? Thought I got a good deal........ Bummer....... How much did you spend to upgrade them? Thanks.. Flegz

right after I won the auction I surfed for hours looking for any info I could find....I found this on another site, any of this make any sense????? "picked up a used pair of Klipsch Heresy's, older model 1's with birch ply boxes. At first these sounded to bright and thin. I went and applied plummers putty to the woofer basket legs and around the squawker horn. Then, I added a brace to the box. I changed the wiring on the autoformer in the crossover to drop the squawkers output a couple of decibles and changed the tweeter cap from a 2 uF to a 1.5 uF. I also have some felt around the mid-horn mouth (after routing the wood to the same taper). Then I lightly stuffed the box with polyfill. These tweeks transformed these speakers. They now have dynamics and frequency balance that is superb! These speakers bring me closer to the live music experiance then I have yet come. That compression midrange speaker is really amazing! I wouldn't give these up for any fullrange driver, even if the fullrange driver does have a better coherency. The Klipsch dynamics and detail are just so much better, and have a more neutral, realistic balance. Unless I can find something that has greater dynamics, frequency balance, detail and instrument tonality, I plan on staying in the Klipsch line. With my OB subwoofers, I get a very flat response down to around 25 Hz with a very life-like sound. From what I've read, the Heresy plus decent subwoofer, is in the same league as the Forte's, Cornwalls and Chorus. I don't think I'll be changing anytime soon, as I haven't been impressed quite enough by any single driver system. Coherency and imaging isn't quite enough for me. Wink I need that instrument detail and tonallity! Cool" Thanks Flegz

hEy! I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of an ebay purchase of a matched pair of consecutively numbered, 8527178 and 8527179 KLIPSCH HERESY HBR's Are there any tweeks that I might to do to improve on them? Thanks! Flegz

I really like the tuner on the Onkyo....Maybe I'll just use it for that and power the Heresy's with the h/k....or Maybe I'll power some subs with the Onkyo.....

heY! Thanks for your responses! can't wait to try em out!! flegz

Hey I'm a NEW-B.....Anyone have experience with both I have a mint Onkyo TX-4500 and really like it. I just purchased a pair of Heresy's on Ebay and had planned to use the onkyo to power them. I was just given an HK 630 from my father, he found it at a garage sale in Vermont for $5!! It is in excellent shape, but I didn't think it would be as good as the Onkyo...I'll have to a/b em when the Heresy's arrive....Will it have enough power to satisfy ther Heresy's? Flegz

How would an Onkyo TX-4500 compare to the HK 630? I have a mint Onkyo TX and really like it. I just purchased a pair of Heresy's on Ebay and had planned to use the onkyo to power them.I was just given an HK 630 from my father, he found it at a garage sale in Vermont for $5!! It is in excellent shape, but I didn't think it would be as good as the Onkyo...I'll have to a/b em when the Heresy's arrive.... Flegz
