Just installed the Heresy III's as the center channel in my HT. Played the Eagles Melbourne DVD to balance the system. You should hear the sax on the horns!! Wonderful. A lot more bass than on my Heresy II's. Great sounding speakers.
Budman, thanks on the tip on the crossovers. I had them removed and shipped separately via FedEx. Everything arrived safely. Thanks again.

I have a pair of Heresy II's that need new grille cloth. Could someone please tell me how to remove the old fabric safely and what kind of glue to use to install the new fabric I bought from Bob Crites? Frame is plastic. Thanks in advance.

They were listed on Audiogon too .............. guess they didn't sell there ........ could become a nice deal for someone !!!!!!!!!
I put in a bid on them. Still in the lead. Don't know if I'll get them or not. Will let you know

My 1st choice would be Heresy I's in WO (my Khorns are '75 WL) but these seem to be in pretty
good condition for a raw birch, with a home stain job.
Check these out. HII WO. Don't know where he is located though.

HP Check these out. They appear to be walnut, not sure, but close by.

So - opinions? Guesses? Facts? Am I going to blow a few old speakers next week? Or are they going to sound better than ever?
I'm running Heresy and forté as center and side and rear surround with a 2007 with no problem. Klipsch speakers are so sensitive that it is no problem.

You can't beat that. Gas would have cost more than that to get them to you[A]
Please keep me in mind for the Scalas. Thanks.
From the Dept. of Don't That Just Beat All: I was just first respondent on a set of KG4s. I pick them up tonight.
For fifty bucks.
Two miles from my house.

BUT (BIG, scary BUT) a third needs to be replaced: One of the stock woofs has a cracked surround.
JTNFoley: I have a pair of KG-4 that I might consider parting out. Also would be interested in the LaScalas if you decide to sell. Son lives in Cambridge and could get the parts that far for you, when he comes to visit.

Just picked up at Sam's the DVD "Olivia Newton-John and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra: Live from the Sydney Opera House. If you're into ON-J you'll enjoy this DVD. Great DD 5.1 surround and top-notch video. All of her classic songs are included and her voice sounds great; more mature and, to me, more pleasing.

I assume you are using a DVD player with 7.1 output? The Stage One has a DB-25 connector which converts it to an eight-channel preamplifier. You can purchase one from Onkyo for around $20 dollars. The input colors are as follows: Red (FR), White (FL), Purple (Sub), Gray (SR), Blue (SL), Tan (SBR), Brown (SBL), Green (Center). You will have to balance the surround with the DVD player. Contact me with questions.

Just watched a concert that I hadn't viewed in years and found it quite good in parts: An All-Star Tribute to Brian Wison. The arrangement to "Good Vibrations" makes the disc worth the price. Concert features Ricky Martin, Paul Simon, Vince Gill, Evan and Jaron, Elton John, Davis Crosby, Carly Simon and Billy Joel, among others. In DD/DTS and 1:78:1 Widescreen.
OldBuckster and Budman-Heresy III's have a new home
in Home Theater

OB, they make an awesome center channel. Listening now to Alison Krauss DVD. Sounds like the dobro is jumping right out at me. I'm crossing them over at 60hz right now and the bass is quite nice. I'll have to put them lower and see just what they can do. Definitely worth the investment. Thanks for asking.
