I too just purchased my first set of Heresy's. Mine are 1985 vintage and are also series I. The only that I have done to mine is purchased a set of new crossover networks from Bob Crites (you will find his posts on the site). If you decide to work on the crossovers, you can purchase parts from him or a completely built crossover. The new crossovers have made a difference and I enjoy the Heresy's a lot. Enjoy. Roy

I installed the crossovers and everything is going along well. I believe that I have the K77 and K55 drivers. I should have taken more careful notes, so I am not 100% certain, but pretty sure. Mr. Crites does a nice job on the crossovers and even though the old ears are not very good I think things are a bit more detailed (heck, I'd probably say that anyway after spending the $'s). Enjoy the Heresy's very much and enjoy reading the forum. Roy

I bought a set of crossovers from Mr. Crites, great guy to deal with, delivered as promised and a very nice product. My Heresy I's even sound better. Roy

Gentlemen, I just bought a set of Heresy's from the seller or these speakers. Great guy to work with. I saw these while purchasing the Heresy's and they look to be in fine condition. If I can help in anyway let me know. Roy (RJL)

Thanks for the post. I checked the stamped serial number on the back of the cabinet and the 1st numbers are 85. My Heresy's much have been amount the last batch. By the way, Mr. Crites sold me a new set of x-overs, haven't had a chance to install them yet, but hope to over the next couple of days.

dbflash, I hadn't given the RB5's any thought yet. Is there a decent market out there for them? Roy

Thank you for all the positive feedback. The person who I bought the Heresy's from said they were manufactured in 1985, however the speakers all mount from inside the cabinet. A little investigative work is in order. I'm comfortable around a soldering iron, so it sounds like it is a simple task to replace the caps. I'll open up the cabinets this weekend to check out what is inside to figure out what I need to order. Thanks again, Roy

Last week I made the move and bought myself a pair of 1984 or 1985 Herey I's. I brought them home, set them up and have been enjoying them to no end. These are a replacement for Klipsch RB-5s which I've had for a couple of years and just felt like there was something missing. Worked great, but there was just something. I joined this forum the other day and started reading some of the posts. One of the things that jumped out at me is the fact that capacitors do no age like fine wine. I tend not to listen at high volume, so I think my existing speakers are ok, however it sounds like there is a benefit to replacing the capacitors (other parts?) in the crossover network. Accept my apologies for asking a question that has most likely been asked many times, but is there a kit or a parts list of what should be replaced in the crossover network to bring it back into specification? Thank you, Roy
