Thanks, It sound very promising.

It became a pair Chorus II nevertheless… My amplifier does not seem to have any problems to run them that it seems, the bas and body is sweet. I have had a lot of different types' speakers but Klipsch the sound is very special. It looks like this since some hours at my place:

I was hoping they would work. But I can only listen to what you folks say for the moment throe I can't try myself. But if the majority say Chorus II doesn’t work with my amp, then I probably shouldn’t buy them...

I have not bought them still so I can not examine yet. Comes to have both the amplifier and the speakers home on Sunday. But as said, now I however speculates into not to buying Chorus because there function so poorly with concern for that they have irregular impedance

I see, this was of course crap. Do not want the speakers to sound thin but either will I sell the amplifier directly. So I may have to invest in something else then Chorus II, error designed speakers for tubes is not funny...[

In guess I simply have to try it myself. What's done is done. I will probably use 300B and then it gives 2x7wpc, but it’s also possible to use 2x3,5wpc 2A3. But some more experiences with Chorus and SET amplifiers would be nice.

According to what I read should 7 tube watts also work well with Chorus II. But I become little afraid when it is said that Chorus II doesn't like high output impedance amplifiers... I was hoping to be able to sit pleased with both amplifiers and speakers a while ahead and only to play records. Nobody that have used Chorus II with a SET amplifier?

DrWho,that doesn’t sound so good. I have told the seller that I will buy his Chorus II now… I shall visit some relatives in the weekend and intended to pick them up on way. Unfortunately it’s not possible for me to listen to them with my amplifier because I don’t have it yet (recently ordered). Is several of same view that Chorus II do not fit with SET amps? I thought all Klipsch in the Heritage-series worked very well with SET amps. My amp is similar to the Audion Silver Night stereo mk II shown here: http://www.aland.net/sandmarcaudio/audion.htm

Thanks everyone for the replies! William, especially thanks that you took yourself time to describe the differences. Very helpful! I will definitively try to go on the Chorus. Regards, Henrik

Thanks for your answer! You do not believe Heresey III is better on anything? I will of course get the stands for the Heresey. Should not the new elements on Heresey III be quite much better than the Chorus II? What speaks for Heresey is that they can stand the near batch wall according to what I read, while Chorus have to be out in the room for the bas to work. It is allright sitting so close on such big speakers? Regards, Henrik

Anyone?

Hi I have been offered to buy a pair Chorus II and a pair Heresey III. Both requests around 1000 $ and both speakers are near mint (The Nordic retail prices are considerably higher than the American). Chorus II are approximately 15 years old and Heresey III approximately 1.5 years. My room is approximately 11 feet long and 14 feet broad (around 3x4 meter), and I play on the card side. I listen to all kind of music but mostly pop, jazz and blues. I don’t know if the Chorus III is too big for my room and that the Heresey III fits better. Is there also more details and higher resolution in Heresey III because there are newer speakers? What will I choose? I’m going to use a Audion Silvernight SET amp (2-7wat) and mostly vinyl as source. Best regards, Henrik
