That worked

I don't see anything either. @Jeff Matthews nothing loaded that we can see.

No, and the warden isn't a bad person either. He's just doing what he thinks is right.

It's not like Klipsch is still making the MTM. Some have bought the MCM1900 that didn't come with the MTM, so it should be a non-issue to point them in a direction that makes them happy, builds trust, and they might stay. It's not a matter of promoting other party's offerings: It's just conversations without acting like options don't exist. The game that gets played upsets people and they, rightfully so, feel tricked, rather than feeling they were treated like adults. The game is causing a Streisand effect and is driving people to the competition. The huge departure of valued members should be an indication that the new rules have killed the forum. The low turnout for Mr. Klipsch's birthday bash is proof that it is hurting all the way around. One or two say that they are done, but they come right back. Some say they are leaving and that's what they do. Most left without saying so and the exodus since 2020 should have been avoided. The new Heritage sounds a lot better than earlier offerings. Some existing owners will buy new, while most can't afford 10, 20, or $30,000 speakers, so a small number will try to improve the sound of what they own. Since the Heritage line is less than 5% of new Klipsch sales and none of the new ones need to be refreshed or upgraded it should have never been any worry. I am sure GM would not cut relations with someone who wants to install Brembo brake pads on their Vette, rather than AC Delco. It would be a disaster for GM to condemn them. Caps and diaphragms have to be a microscopic fraction of a percent of sales and are not worth what they have cost. It's like wasting dollars to save pennies. Just my 2 cents.

PWK Birthday Bash 2024 - Activities and Pictures
Woofers and Tweeters replied to MMurg's topic in General Klipsch Info
My guess is KPT-684 with KI-396 on top. -
Everyone has freeze brain except the one without one. And I thought that my response was funny.

This weekend (March 16 or 17) I will be traveling from Chicago, through Indy, and Cinci, to Lexington KY, and can drop them off on that route if that helps a buyer. -

Recommend me the woofer for my big heresy
Woofers and Tweeters replied to Tix8805's topic in Technical/Restorations
Some have used a Tangent 400 to make the larger box 'ported Heresy' speakers. I am using the Eminence Kappalite 3012 HO in my Super H. Eminence Delta 12a HO, Delta Pro 12a HO, Kappalite 3012HO, and Celestion TF1225 have all proven to work well. -
WTT: looking for specific signatures
Woofers and Tweeters replied to Rivervalleymgb's topic in Garage Sale
@Dmarque2 Due to relentless despotic treatment on here, masses of members left this forum starting in ~ 2000 (most members in this thread haven't been here since 2022). You might have a lot better luck looking on Facebook and Audiokarma. Good luck. -
What are you using to power them?
-
Congrats. What music do you like?
-
It has been a minute since 1984. That is when I bought a pair of Heresy, new from a place called Ovation. I can't recall the first tunes that I played through them. What I listen to these days is a lot less radical than then, most of the time lol.

I would just start a new thread in General and let this one fall off due to no activity.

Forte I cabinet water damage - options?
Woofers and Tweeters replied to Hollis J's topic in Technical/Restorations
It might be that Matt is looking around at Forte posts. Yesterday Matt asked about new caps. I recommended jem, dean and the C word, which got me a warning that we can't say the C word and the thread removed. Is there any wonder why 99% of the members are gone? At this rate, the company will be like Altec and JBL. Anyone want to make a bet that, since the Heritage line is less than 5% of sales and the ones who buy the Heritage speakers are being driven away, soon they won't need an Engineer in the US on the payroll? -
A girl in college calls her father after having sex for the first time. She says, "Dad, I have a confession to make. I ain't a virgin anymore." Hearing this, the dad gets furious and shouts, "I work my *** off to get you into one of the best universities in the state, and you still say ain't!?"

Soooooo No More Klipsch Pilgrimages??
Woofers and Tweeters replied to RLink's topic in Klipsch Pilgrimage 2020
IMHO, Covid has nothing to do with why the Pilgrimages came to an end. Evidence shows the real reasons for the departure of 99% of the forum members and very few people attending the PWK BB. -

I sure do miss Bob. He seemed to never lose sight of what was most important. -

Heresy II crossover updates
Woofers and Tweeters replied to Marvel's topic in Technical/Restorations
Yeah, I went by what W&T had told me. He had already swapped them out when I was looking at them. He'll have to confirm what tweeter was in those. I also noted one set had K53 mid (1985 model) mounted to the K701 and the ones from 1984 that had the adapter to the K700 were actually K52H. That info mistake is all my fault. I had the KP250, H1.5 and H2 all apart and was mixed up on the tweeters. Sorry. -
Heresy II crossover updates
Woofers and Tweeters replied to Marvel's topic in Technical/Restorations
Yes to this. I have had the HII and that is all correct. I remembered that Bruce had the square cups and I had the round terminal cups, which we thought was strange. A few weeks ago, I found out that the round cups were the 4 Ohm. I have some H 1.5(?) that have the plastic K701 with K53 drivers that are mounted inside. The horns have the crescent cut for the woofer, just like for the HII. I just now bought some H 1.5(?) that had the cast metal K700 horn with the K53 driver. I had it out for the swap, and then Mookie pointed out the threaded-to-flat adapter. His H1 had the K700 with the K55 and my H1.5 had the K700 with the K53 driver. I'm not sure why this is, maybe Klipsch was trying to use the in-stock parts, which was smart. -
Heresy II crossover updates
Woofers and Tweeters replied to Marvel's topic in Technical/Restorations
I have a pair of H1.5 that I converted/perverted to Super Heresy. They have the plastic K701 squawker with flange flange-mounted K53 driver. Last week, I found some Heresy "1" in STL that I wanted. @MookieStl bought them for me on Friday. When Mookie got home, he found that they had the K53 squawker, meaning they are H1.5, not 1s... grr. I wanted the H1 so I could use the threaded K55. Mookie, the generous man that he is, said that he has some K700 which would let me use the threaded K55. I drove there on Saturday to pick them up. I am, finally, getting to the real muddy part: The H1.5s that Mooking picked up have the K700, AND they have a threaded-to-flat adapter for the K53.
