SOLD!!!!! Newer black Klipschorns that I purchased brand new from Klipsch in January of 2015. They have moved a total of about six feet since they came out of their boxes. No dings and no scratches! They are mint!!! I also have all of the original boxes and packaging. Local pickup is preferred. That way you can see how perfect they are and help pack them yourself so there is zero damage when you take them away. Why am I selling? I'd like to try a set of Jubilees $4,900 OBO, Pocatello, Idaho I have PayPal, but cash is more fun!!! Factory boxes: Two bass bin boxes @ 42"H x 27"W x 34"D Two mid/high boxes @ 15"H x 31"W x 36"D Shipping weight with pallets is probably around 450 pounds (175 each speaker). Trent

Looks original- full grills were available on the LaScalas in 1978. In fact I have a pair with full covers from that year.

Bummer guys! I thought this would be the ticket for anyone looking for heresy grills.

He seemed like a cool guy when I met him that day- my first impression was that he would love to help.

No problem! Hopefully it works out for everyone that would like a set.

I met one of the general contractors that travels the US building Chipotle Mexican grills. He is also the guy that installs the pair of Heresy's in the wall of the restaurant. I met him while he was installing them at our new restaurant that will be opening next month. Turns out they are the nice finished black Heresy's III's just mounted upside down behind the wall. They come with grills and the new badges on them right out of the box. Where do the grills and badges end up? Usually in the garbage after the install- no kidding! He said he will start keeping them if anyone is interested. He said he will sell grills and badges pretty cheap and he already has several pairs on hand. Here's his info: Juan Betancourt (916)842-8524 Jbetancourt@tri-quest.net Cheers! Trent

Heresys mounted high and upside down if they are close to the ceiling like they do in all Chipotle Mexican Grill restaurants. Sounds awesome! Then maybe consider a single sub hidden somewhere out of the way.

I have three of these. They just hum. I turn the subs up to 4.5 or 5. Then turn it up in my receiver or pre-pro. Works great, very little hum and lots of bass!

Any luck?

You bet!

Mine or his? I am assuming you want the OP's info on his room. But just in case... I run heritage stuff which is why I didn't get the THX system. I've A B'ed them and prefer mine. My room is 19' by 48'. No rear corners, rectangle room.

Cake!!! Call TheStereoShoppee in Boise, Idaho. http://www.thestereoshoppe.com They have a mint setup on consignment. I almost bought it. I physically saw it today. Includes the two subs and amp as well.

My Klipschorns were built in 2015. Here are some pics...

The highs are brighter- more clear. I changed out only one at first and left the other alone for a day so I could compare.

Sold and shipped to a forum member!

Sale pending via PM.

I have a set of AA crossovers that I just pulled from my newly purchased 1978 LaScalas. I've been listening to them for several weeks with these crossovers. I'm selling them because I just installed Bob Crites new AA crossovers. I considered rebuilding these, but just wanted new parts all around. As a result my original AA crossovers are for sale. How does $100 plus shipping sound?

For music I would rate: 1- my 2015 Klipschorns 2- my 1978 LaScalas 3- my 1986 Fortes (sold) For movies I would rate: 1- my Klipschorn and Heresy combo 2- my full heresy combo 3- my RF-7 II and RC-64 II (sold) I've owned but sold Forte I's, 1979 LaScala splits, RF-82 II's, and RF-7 II's.

Kind of a cool story.... My grandmother's sister was married to Waylon Jennings for about five years. They had a daughter that I'm very close to - even today. When my mom was in High School she went to stay with Waylon and my Aunt Lynne for about a year in Arizona. Also... Waylon was a huge Klipsch fan along with fellow country music outlaw Kris Kristofferson. I tried to get my hands on his Klipschorns a few years back, but they had long disappeared. Since his death the Khorns are simply MIA. My cousin asked his current wife Jessie and she didn't know what had become of them. He also apparently had Heresy's and some MCM stuff back in the day. Here's a little cool info about how Waylon fits into this post about the day rock and roll died... "In 1958, Buddy Holly arranged Jennings's first recording session, of "Jole Blon" and "When Sin Stops (Love Begins)". Holly hired him to play bass. In Clear Lake, Iowa, Jennings gave up his seat on the ill-fated flight that crashed and killed Holly, J. P. Richardson, Ritchie Valens, and pilot Roger Peterson. The day of the flight was later known as The Day the Music Died. Jennings then worked as a D.J. in Coolidge, Arizona, and Phoenix." Growing up I heard this story a few times from Waylon himself and from my mom. Right before they left for the plane Waylon joked with the Big Bopper about it. The Big Bopper said to Waylon jokingly that he hoped their bus would freeze. Waylon joked back and replied- I hope your plane crashes... As you can imagine It really bugged him the rest of his life. Crazy story!
