  1. Introducing the 70th Anniversary Edition of the Klipsch Heresy III speaker... The 70th Anniversary Heresy III is limited to a production run of only 70 pairs of speakers, so if you don't get them now, you are going to miss out. (Seriously, these are going to go fast.) These handcrafted speakers are available now from Klipsch.com and select dealers. New Features: Australian Walnut Wood Veneer Book-Matched Wood Veneer Heresy Logo Nameplate Silver Lust Grille Cloth Matte-Black Slant Riser
  2. My cat has also had some fun with my Heresy III speakers although, admittedly, not nearly as bad as in the photo you posted. I have used the miniwax touch pen (Golden Oak) to great effect though. Completely erased the scratched. Looks brand new. Removing the grille made my cat lose interest in the speakers.
  3. Sold out in under 24 hours. Pretty nuts. I am pretty certain we'll never see these again.
  4. The ever-popular Reference S4 & S4i in-ear headphones are back in stock for a limited time! These are dead stock, meaning that we won't make any more of these beauties. Oh and they're available at a reduced price to cap it off. Reference S4: [link] Reference S4i: [link]
  5. My apologies. I also just posted this under Klipsch News. Regardless, very sad news indeed.
  6. It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Valerie Klipsch, beloved wife of Paul W. Klipsch. She was a huge part of his life, and therefore ours.
  7. For Sale: Pre-owned Harmon Kardon HK-430 Twin Powered Stereo Receiver that I was using with my Klipsch Heresy III speakers before I switched to a HK-730. It is in need of a good cleaning but everything works great and sounds terrific! PRICE: $215 Shipped Power output: 25 watts per channel into 8Ω (stereo) Frequency response: 20Hz to 20kHz Total harmonic distortion: 0.3% Damping factor: 40 Signal to noise ratio: 65dB (line) Speaker load impedance: 4Ω to 16Ω Dimensions: 432 x 368 x 140mm Weight: 10.9kg
  8. Could you DM me your details, so I know what to look for in my inbox haha?
  9. Really enjoyed this review. I have a RP-260F system and Heresy IIIs and I share a lot of your same thoughts.
  10. I don't know enough about pricing mechanics to really comment directly on this. What I would say is that HD Wireless took a whole lot more R&D for our engineering team than the passive Reference Premiere lineup. Plus, amplificatioDirector of Technology and Innovationn is expensive which is why you don't see it built into a lot of speakers. Anyway, Matt Spitznagle, newly promoted Director of Technology and Innovation, answered a question about these speakers' amplification on Facebook that I think would be interesting to y'all: "Each amp channel is limited to 25W per driver. The power supply in the 440WF and 440WC is 125W. The 140WM has a 50W power supply. The 110WSW amp can output 200W. The biggest reason you don’t see amps in speakers is amps are expensive and can be difficult to implement, especially when they are quiet enough for Klipsch speakers. Acoustically, this is a superior solution because it allowed us to use a DSP crossover. It also means each speaker doesn’t have to share a power supply like it would with a receiver. 2 WF’s, 1 WC, and 2WM’s have 460W of power supply available. Most mid-grade receivers may rate themselves at 100W/channel but most can’t come close to that with all channels driven."
  11. Fair point. As you can guess, it's a controversial topic amongst our staff. While there will be firmware upgrades obviously to the original HD Control Center, there will also be new and different levels of the HD Control Center.
  12. Long-term, these speakers are going to be compatible with "HD Control Centers" from other companies as well. This is just the beginning.
  13. this is amazing you would even say something like this considering you guys have rooms to demo palladium stuff and khorns. saying they aren't just good, they are great is fine. but saying they are the best demo that many have heard is insane to me. Sounds like they need better hearing protection in the production area. I find the claim hard to believe myself. I'll certainly submit myself to a demo in May and they can prove me wrong. OK, so my word choice wasn't great here haha. I meant "best" in a more relevant sense, as it was the most impressive considering their size, price, setup, expectations, etc. It was legitimately shocking how awesome the 2.0 HD Wireless setup was. Obviously, Palladium and K-horns sound better, but RELATIVELY, the demo of HD Wireless was more impressive to me and a lot of people here.
  14. It's finally here. We are so proud to announce that Klipsch Reference Premiere HD Wireless is available now from Klipsch.com and select retailers: http://www.klipsch.com/rp-hd-wireless I also posted a blog "10 Reasons To Get Reference Premiere HD Wireless" which not only gives you the value propositions of the product but should also give you an idea of how important this is to the team: http://www.klipsch.com/blog/ten-reasons-to-get-klipsch-reference-premiere-hd-wireless-speaker-system/ Some of you have probably heard me say this before, but all employees were given the demo of these speakers a couple months back and most came out saying that it was the best Klipsch demo they had ever heard. The Klipsch engineering team really outdid itself with this one. These aren't just great wireless speakers. These are great speakers PERIOD. If you have any questions technical or otherwise, please feel free to ask them and I'll do my best to get them all answered!
  15. Only select customers got them. I'm seeing if we have any left over. Like Chad said, not many were made.
  16. I've got a 430 that I would sell. HOGFAN Sending you a PM now!
  17. PM'd and considering! Thanks! I sent him a private message as well as Kernel to see if he is willing to let go of his 430.
  18. Anyone have a Harmon Kardon HK-430 receiver they would be willing to part with? Or do you know where I can find one for a decent price? Let me know!
  19. Help me out here...Is that a Klipsch Heresy speaker in Aziz Ansari's Master of None? (Season 1, Episode 7)
  20. Klipsch Cornwall speakers spotted in the movie Seeking a Friend for the End of the World.
