It's my understanding that if a trademark owner permits or overlooks infringements on its mark, it can lose the legal protections it sought when it registered the mark. That's why so many companies are agressive in defending trademarks against any infringements. I think eth2 is probably correct. Ya'll have a great weekend!!

Great find ... congrats. Would be interested in your take on sound quality esp in comparison to the RF7ii's from just a 2 ch. (listening) perspective. Guessing you'll win the bet with yourself and Heritage will be your favorite. Let us know.

Excellent. Thanks for sharing. Do you have any pics (or did I miss them?) of the horn in the bass (woofer) assembly?
-
I have experienced incremental (not dramatic) improvements in sound upgrading interconnects and speaker cable, but not with my one experiment at upgrading a power cord. Guess mileage varies a lot and you'll have to experiement. Keep watching this thread... a can of worms may be open!!

Welcome!! I'm fairly new also. This is a great group. Great looking K-horns ... my kingdom for some corners!!
-
Look forward to the results of the audition. Appearances can be deceiving with regard to how they perform, but I'd bet there could be a WAF issue for the purchaser.
-
The joy I get from our HT is in sharing it with friends. Youthman has it right....the key is relationships. Happiness is an inside job and a by-product of doing the right things ... not in stuff.
-
They do look nice. Too bad on the price ... seems so high as to probably discourage reasonable offers.
-
Keep us posted on how this works out and if the suggestions are helpful to Tracy. As I mentioned earlier, I've yet to experience this problem with my 30's but we can keep passing useful information on to those who do.

If you are using the space for HT as well as listening, look at reprints of old movie posters on Ebay. We did and have framed posters from Hitchcock's "The Birds", Young Frankenstein, Rio Bravo, etc. They look great and WAF is no problem for me. The posters are usually fairly cheap and so is framing if you do it yourself.

Happy belated welcome. Just saw your post. This is a great group.

This is good information, Moray. Thank you. Quick question ... I've bought my 30's brand new in the late 90's and have never noticed problems with vibration, rattling, etc., and they've been through a cross country move back in '02. Have I just been lucky or did Klipsch fix the problem at some point?? Thanks and best regards to you, too!! Chuck

Bought my CW III's never having heard CW's previously and couldn't be happier. Sometimes ya just gotta take the plunge (or cliff dive). Best of luck.

Speaking of St. Louis University, how 'bout them Billikens!! Doesn't seem that long ago when the best they could even hope for was an invite to the NIT. What a turn around.

I'd agree with Youthman on asking prices I've seen on the 30's ($600-$900) though i've also seen higher. Hard to tell what actual selling prices are. I got my 30's new in the late 90's. I later picked up 10's (my rear surrounds) and C-7 (center) off a CL sale in the Denver area for $350 which was a steal. The asking price on the C-7 alone is often $250 - $400. Again, who knows what actual selling prices are. Good luck!!
-
If you want a great match just be patient and try to find a KLF C-7 for the center and either KLF-20's or 30's for the front. Add the sub of your choice, just find one that can keep up and digs deep enough. This is do-able. The speakers are out there and they do come up for sale. I know 'cause I did it!! The sound is incredible. I'm running 5.1 but if I wanted to expand, I'd look for more 10's or 20's. Like you, I replaced a mis-matched system. The seems to be finding a good sonic match, and staying within the KLF series really did the trick. I also replaced my Denon AVR with Marantz separates, and that made a significant, positive difference as well. Best of luck and keep us posted!!

Saw a pair of 'designer" Cornwalls on the Denver CL for $600 obo. Look under Klipsch in Electronics (no surprise, huh?). Appear a little rugged perhaps. No affiliation and I do not know the seller.

Ditto on the refurbished suggestion, but also look at the Marantz offerings. My HT sound improved greatly when I moved from Denon to Marantz. (And ..yes..I realize they have the same parent company!)
-
Sounds like a no brainer at that price, especially with Heritage prices trending up. The dual 12's should yield the same kind of deep bass slam as the KLF-30's. Great find!! Enjoy your new speakers!!

She probably has lots of dough.

If she's really a pizza, I'd have to say she has some great toppings.

Two Iranians traveling on stolen passports couldn't possibly have anything to do with it.

OMG!! Sure didn't see that coming!! Thanks.
