  1. Hey all, sorry I didn't know I was supposed to set a price...never really bought or sold anything on a forum. You all know what I got them for, so that is a slight disadvantage...but I would like to either trade for a juicy preamp (or equivilant tube pre),VRD amp (and I can throw in some cash to cover the differance), or $950. I haven't really seen these sell on here or ebay much because they are so new...so from what I know this seems like a fair price...if I find out otherwise I will work with whoever the highest bidder is.

  3. hey guys, I got a set of Heresy's and decided I didn't need them. For all of you who want to talk me out, thanks but you can read the thread where I made the decision on...I feel confident in my decision. I will be posting pictures soon, but until then you can search for "heresy III price" or something like that. I am open to all forms of trade and offers. Please feel free to pm or email me with any questions. Thanks!
  4. I don't know if I have done everything possible to ensure my decision is correct. I really like the sound of them; however, my situation is not so condusive for keeping nice newer speakers. I will be moving quite a bit over the next few years and I know that even with the best care they will get damaged...I would rather they go to someone who will make them their main speakers and really take care of them. I have the rf-7's and they really work for me...if I get more Klipsch speakers they will probably be either Lascalla's or K-horns. Right now I think that I will be looking to finish my rf-7 HT and maybe start getting into the tube amp world. But I think that the Hereseys won't recieve as much attention as someone else would give them. If I don't get any interest on this thread in the next few days I will step up in visibility...new thread, audiogon, craigslist, ebay (don't want to do that)...I will give presidence to whoever can respond to me the fastest, and have the best mix of compensation...and ease of delivery options. I would rather not get an extra $50 and be able to have a worry free transfer than the alternative. Feel free to pm or email me (claydaugherty@yahoo.com) for more pictures/info about them
  5. Double J has passed for now, open season on item...make me an offer for sale or trade! I would prefer pickup or transfer at the pilgrimiage. Thanks!
  6. There is one more pic that I cant post that has shows a slight scratch on the side about the same as the ones you see...i can try to resize later to fit them all but these deffinatlly let you see every detail of the imperfection. in regular light and if cared for properly they may be nearly unseen. I have talked to DoubleJ...and look to be accepting offers after he makes a decision. fyi perfer to work via pm...
  7. Here are pictures of the others imperfections, I am trying to limit my pictures on the forum...so if you would like more I can send the rest via email. Just pm me with a request
  8. Here is one of the speakers...i can't find even minor scratches or imperfections on it
  9. What are the sonic differences between the most recent 201's and the heresyIII's?
  10. So I just pulled the trigger on a Mcintosh C-29 pre, I am going to wait until I get it and then decide. Thanks for everyone's advice!
  11. Yea, well I need to get a few paycheck at my job before I even begin to think about tubes, and new subs...thanks though.
  12. Well I am just moving in, and haven't got everything set up yet...but if someone wants to come by and take a listen ... I'd be willing to try to facilitate that.
  13. I found the jumper...and they sound great. Putting them next to my RF-7's it is a tough comparison. The heresy's sound more balanced and great with most all types of music (more a listening room speaker), whereas the RF-7's have a lot more power handling, bass, and image better (with no center channel this is imporntant with movies (more a HT speaker). The gf loves them both, and I am leaning towards keeping them...either way I am glad i have got a chance to listen to them.
  14. No, I am not pulling anybodies leg. I bought these cause they were nice and priced even nicer. The people I bought them from said they were too big and wanted in ceiling speakers (didn't fit their new space) I have got lots of things I would love to have, and need to start deciding on what I really want and what I will like and then replace in the future. And the decision making process often includes purchasing the items then deciding what you want to keep...then finding if there is a market for what you just bought and don't like. I wouldn't sell the speakers for $625, but I doubt that I would hold out for 95% of retail...I got a really good deal and I know that if someone on here got a RC-7 for a song that I would not want to pay 95% of retail for that either. Maybe I should have waited to even hint about selling them before finding out if there was any interest on the forums. I don't want to get my or anybody else's hopes up until I make a decision...and right now it could go either way, I really only heard them hooked up to a reciever playing "Ohh Donna" on the FM tuner, and the speakers only wired to the HF inputs (Probably why the guy was so willing to part with them, cause there wasn't any bass coming out) Of course this could also mean that the bass speakers are blown (but I seriously doubt it! these things are very very clean and they don't look like the loud listening couple) For the people interested, I plan on deciding as to my future with the speakers before the pilgrimage...so that should help us both out.
  15. OK I can see that these are a hot item. Let me get back home and hook them up first. I want to first make sure they work 100%, and that you guys see pictures of them, AND that I actually want to sell them. DoubleJ, I will pm you when I make a decision.
  16. The final real actual no joke price was $625 for the pair. I have wanted a pair of Heresy's for the bedroom for some time...but am more interested in finishing the home theater room or getting some vintage or new tube gear. I am located in Urbana, OH (90% of the time) and Indianapolis, IN. And I will be attending the pilgrimage. So if someone convinced me to sell or trade they could either meet me there or come pick them up.
  17. Got em, they are in near mint condition...the grills are perfect and there are some light indentations from probably moving. Haven't got a chance to really listen to them long and hard, but I will. Pictures will be up when I finally get home and my computer unpacked. I don't know what I am going to do with them yet, but if anybody is interested let me know and you will be the first to know if I decide to part with them.
  18. I would love to make a huge killing on these, but I like this forum and would like to get a good deal sometime too...all that being said if I do get them and decide not to keep them I would be willing to let these go for a reasonable price. Lets not get the cart before the horse, I haven't even seen them yet...I'll keep you updated after I see them @ approx 7ish
  19. Ohh and I forgot about the DIY TCSounds sonosub I am just about to begin...
  20. Thanks for the advice, peer pressure, etc...lol. I am going to see them tonight, if I don't end up with them I will be leaving info about them and my thoughts on them for whomever to pursue. I really need to save up some money to pay off college loans, a ring, a new car...but speakers are so stinking awesome. I currently have the rf-7's, a set of old fisher studio somethings, peavey's (with black widows ), thiel cs3's, JBL mr925's (for the band) a diy set i made when the band just started and we had no money. I am running out of space! FYI the band I was talking about, The Amanda Shelly Band, you can check out on myspace. We are in the process of recording a full band album, the stuff on there is from Amanda's solo cd. www.myspace.com/amandashellymusic. Ohh and sorry we won't be releasing the album in vinyl...
  21. For both, they are local...so I will deffinatly see them before I throw any money down. I am kinda tight for cash now...but they do seem like a good deal.
