    I bought a couple of these speakers (see attached photo) two years ago, but not sure about any details/history.  Serial # 52S244

     

     you're lucky , but these Heresy speakers are not HDBR   , these are 1978 Heresy 1 HBR raw birch black ,   ( no grilles ) , badges are the very rare Lazer copper  , the HF drivers are the Alnico K-77  round tweeter / K-55V Alnico  midrange on a K-700 metal horn  , woofer is the K-22 square magnet , the crossovers are E networks .

    ive had a couple recievers only play one of my kg4.2 after a certain amount of time. Today i connected them to an old realistic and they sounded great for a couple songs then i literally heard one speaker fade out. after an hour of one speaker the other one made some slight bass tones for about 30 sec. when one speaker is plugged into different sides the working side changes, it just wont play both L and R at the same time. I checked the connections inside the speaker and elsewhere and tighened a couple but that didnt make a difference!

    the crossovers may require servicing , The capacitors are 32 years old ,   get yourself an ESR meter , and check the capacitors for ESR loss ,

    if the ESR loss is high .......contact JEM, they sell klipsch OEM capacitors .

    I have just purchased the nines and set them up. I have them connected to my tv through the arc. When I turn off the speakers there is a pop that happens. Is this normal? Is there something I can do to make it stop? 

    rough guess here ,  it could be interference or static  , shut the TV 1st , wait a few seconds  , then shut the speakers , does it change anything ,

    So a deal came up for  a pair of KG4-WO's, got em for 340. (SN's 8514562/3)   Compared to the heresy 1.5, definitely a different sound, much warmer. For some stuff it seems better other stuff the heresy wins out 

     

    aside from a cap kit anything I should look to be updating?

      make sure , the KG-4 woofers are in good shape , since the parts are no longer manufactured by klipsch .

    Salut tout le monde,

    en tant que grand fan de nombreux produits Klipsch, je me demande si quelqu'un ici pourrait me donner quelques directives sur la tour qui suit le RF-82.

     

    J'ai vu beaucoup de modèles différents utilisant le même concept, Deux 8 pouces + pavillon titane.

     

    J'essaie de faire une liste avec la date de production exacte de chacun des modèles suivants.

     

    Je pourrais commencer par cette liste mais je sais que ce n'est pas tout à fait exact, alors aidez-moi si vous le pouvez.

    C'est encore mieux si vous pouviez fournir le prix lorsqu'ils apparaissent sur le marché.

     

    Finally, according to your experience, which one sounds better ? 

     

    Merci

     

    Tour Klipsch double 8''+ tweeter Titane

     

    RF-82                                               (1998-2004)

    RF-82 II                                           (2004-2010)

    RF-800                                            (2010-2015)

    RF-800F                                          

    RF28F                                            

    RF-820F

    RF-8000FB

    R800F

    F300

    le Forum se concentre surtout sur la Serie Heritage     , il serait assez difficile de retrouver des dates de productions exactes sauf si vous avez des nos de series

       Called Klipsch for replacements, got 3 speaker supply references, only one, Midwest Spkr, carried them and there was a waiting list. The tech Dave was very knowledgeable and helpful and directed me to .........

      if you want to buy klipsch parts , call or email @JEM Performance   JEM are a klipsch Heritage Dealer , JEM stocks the K55X drivers and I'm pretty sure JEM can supply the diaphragms including  the services to swap  defective diaphragms with new units
