  1. I have a pair of Heresy IIIs in cherry that I'd like to sell. These are my personal speakers and I am the only owner. They are in excellent cosmetic condition and have the factory risers attached. All corners are sharp and there is no damage. The serial numbers are consecutive. These speakers are unmodified and work as they did when I purchased them. Sale includes shipment in the original factory cartons with all packaging and paperwork. Asking price is $1250 plus $50 shipping to your door. Payment by US Postal money order, please. As an alternative, I will accept Paypal payment if you will split their 3% fee with me. If interested, please PM me or email at artemis592@hotmail.com. Thanks!
  2. My main speakers are Heresy IIIs.
  3. Is anybody using the RC-62II center speaker for music in a 3 channel system? How do you like it? Can you compare it to the discontinued Academy model? I'd like an Academy but this one would be alot easier to find. Too bad it has vinyl covering instead of veneer. Thanks
  4. Read the ad again. It says Heresy II and shows a photo.
  5. I've been thinking about getting a center channel speaker. I have a pair of H3s and a Velodyne sub. Wondering how current users like their RC-62 II center channels. Thanks!
  6. Congrats on getting the Quartets. I own H3s. With my subwoofer in play they sound great. But without a sub, I think you would probably have a preference for the Quartets. Never heard them myself, have heard fine things about them. I listen to alot of Jazz, plus some rock and classical. With the Heresys, I really needed a sub.
  7. Thanks, sanchopanza. Unfortunately, when I enlarge the cut sheet to read it, it becomes too fuzzy. to read. I know there is a Forte ll review out there, entitled "Some Like it Loud". I think it was from Stereo Review, but not sure.
  8. Is your question merely academic, or are you having a specific problem with your cartridge?
  9. Thanks, Billybob. Got it and no issues reading it. Also appreciate the 2011 thread, which I will read tonight. Andy
  10. If they are original sales documents, that would be of interest to me. I have already seen the stuff that Klipsch currently has online under 'discontinued products'. Thanks!
  11. Not sure what cut sheets are. Can they be scanned and emailed? I 'm only looking for Forte and Forte II reviews. I am considering buying a pair of one or the other. Thanks!
  12. I know that Stereophile reviewed the Forte in the 1980s and Stereo Review reviewed them both. Does anybody have a scan of one or more reviews they could email me? My other option is to buy online for around $11 shipped, for each two page review. Seems kinda pricey. Thanks.
  13. I have been looking at seller's photos of Fortes and Forte IIs, and I have noticed that some appear to have a curved, cutout near the bottom with what looks like a base pedestal below it, while others do not have this feature. Were they all sold originally with this feature, or some with and some without? My guess is that this is a removable pedestal and that some owners removed it for some reason. Thanks!
  14. Prefer walnut, not interested in black finish. Looking to spend $400 to $600, depends on condition, version, and finish. I live in Evansville, Indiana and would prefer to pick up instead of ship. email artemis5@wowway.com Thanks!
  15. Mr. Aczel is definitely a good read and my type of writer....but a good portion of his comments are complete engineering block headed BS to the oposite direction of say Stereo phool mag... some where in the middle the truth is found. Yes, I will agree with you. I just did a five day stint with Monster XP 16 AWG wiring replacing my Nordost Blue Heaven cables. The result was better than I expeccted, but compared to the NBH cables; the bass was reduced and the general sense of clarity, transparency, and illusion that the music was coming from behind the speakers were missing. My ability to measure electrical properties of the cables is limited. However, the DC resistance of the NBH cables repeated measured 0.0 ohms, whereas the Monster XP repeatedly measured 0.1 ohms. The Monster was 7' long, whereas the NBHs were 14'7" long. I have no ability to measure inductance, which is supposed to also be important. So here is an expensive cable which to my ears is definitely better than 16 gauge stranded wire with LPE insulation. I have owned them for 15 years and see no reason to change.
