Did you recently move anything around? Did you check your TV to see if any of its audio settings have been changed?

Good speed, ours is much slower
Actually Spectrum came through our alley a few days ago, changed some wiring and now we have over 600Mbps. -
Serial number sticker dates them to 1985.

Is anybody interested in a private jet flight for 6 people to Las Vegas to see the 49ers and Chiefs play in the Super Bowl?!
I'm still looking for 3-4 more people to join us. We can leave Saturday, Feb 10th from the Minneapolis airport…and will fly to Vegas where we will stay through the game on Sunday and then fly home Monday AM. If interested please PM me.Preferably someone with a private jet and tickets to the game, otherwise we can't go.

I have a 5.2.2 setup, previously had a 7.2 setup. I definitely prefer Atmos even with 2 overhead speakers.
What do you mean you’re not looking to go the AVR or pre/pro route? What’s going to be processing the sound?

Randy, I’m really encouraging people to click the link and read and learn. We all know that you know more about Klipsch than most people. Sometimes it’s ok to guide people to the information instead of just spewing it all out. 👍-

As you can see from the heading of this section, it’s for asking questions about older speakers - value, identifying the model, year made, etc.
If you scroll farther down the forum you’ll see sections like the Subwoofer section that would be where questions like you have should go.

$800
That’s on the top end in my opinion. They’d need to be 95+% mint and even then that’s a bit more than I’d pay. $600 is more realistic.-

Yeah, you’re probably right about just having to demo them, short of any other info and numbers. The asking price is a bit high for my area, so we’ll see if they’re will to negotiate.
May I ask how much the asking price is?

Crap.
Any other way to tell?
H IIs don’t but the only reason why you’d maybe want consecutive serial numbers is if you cared about the veneer being matched between them. It definitely would not be a deal breaker for me.-

H II's are not well regarded. At that price you'd have a lot of room for improvement though. Klipsch actually made an upgrade kit for the 2's to bring them up to the spec of III's. I think they might still have the kits on the Klipsch site? You can look it up or email their customer service.
I’ve never heard anyone say that Heresy IIs aren’t well-regarded. 🤷 When I bought a pair of IIIs I still had my IIs. Sent the IIIs back and kept the IIs which I preferred much more.-

There should be more of the serial number after the 033, it must have faded with age. Does the other speaker show more of it on its label? With the copyright 1980 on the tag they certainly wouldn’t be older than that.

Thanks Wuzzzer I did check that thread, but like one of the other posters I'm.confused. the sticker on the back of the speaker has the 1980 trademark on it, but the speakers have the following stamped on them inside K-33E 67-8322. Which lead me to think they were from 1972. A slight discrepancy!
Post a picture of the serial number tag on the cabinet.And if you’re going by the K on the woofer thinking that makes them from 1972, all Klipsch drivers start with the letter K. It just stands for Klipsch.

Hey folks,
I just did a swap with a buddy for a B&K Reference 50 S2 preamp, Reference 125.2 amp, and Reference 200.5 amp. I live in the Adcom, Yamaha, and Onkyo from the 80's separates world. Care to help with valuing these things?
I always look at completed eBay listings to give a real-world selling price of things like that.The most recent 125.2 amp sold for $575 + $95 shipping:
The most recent Reference 50 pre-amp sold for $350 + $50 shipping:
I don’t see any listings for a 200.5 amp but this 200.7 amp recently sold for $555 + $195 shipping:
Hope this helps!

I will add the REL Bassline Blue cable for sure.
Take it from someone who has wasted more money than I care to know on overpriced cables over the years, I would highly suggest not spending $500+ on anything other than something that will actually improve your sound, such as a second subwoofer.I can guarantee that if you listened to a song, left the room, came back and I told you that I switched your cables out for expensive “high-end” ones, your mind would hear a difference even though they were the exact same cables.

I think any of those will work very well. Technically Atmos is a full range channel but I doubt much below 80Hz is mixed into them since it would be sent to an LFE channel. Looks like all three pairs that you referenced have -3dB down points in the 75Hz range or so which would be perfect.
I listen to a lot of Atmos music on Amazon Music and the Atmos speakers are sent more info than I thought they would. Of course, there’s more info in an action movie for instance, but it definitely is a unique experience for music.

The manual is quite minimal and states nothing. The Klipsch Connect App only gives the option to turn on and off the unit's on/off sound completely. Not adjust the sound level. Maybe an App update will give this adjustment option.
I would send an email to Klipsch support and ask if they could do that in a future firmware update. -

I suppose z-licious never found the answer.
Even if they did they haven’t been on the forum in over sixteen years. -
I say that whomever you spoke to needs more training.
You can use a y splitter with any receiver that has a single sub output. In fact, virtually all receivers that have dual sub outputs just have an internal splitter anyway.

Question about speakercables
in 2-Channel Home Audio
Posted
There shouldn’t be any reason why going from 3m to 8m long cables should cost more than $20. And since you have Klipschorns I’m assuming you can afford that.
