It depends on the wood finish. Maybe around $700-1000?

I do, I just texted him

If you are handy, you can use something this this
Remove the terminal cup, separate the crossover from the cup, and Install these in the old ones place. I have done similar to a pair of Chorus II speakers.

Hello-- May someone help me in deciphering a date code? I've sifted through many sites, and the codes I'm looking at do not seem to align with any info I'm seeing online.
The serial number stamped into the very top rear of the Klipsch Heresy I cabinet: 122W976
Thank you!
W means they were made in 1981

40R913 Hersey speakersystem is what year and approximate value?
These are from 1977. The value is tough to judge without any photos since value is affected greatly by cosmetic and working condition. Roughly $400-800 depending on condition, finish, location, etc.

I have klf30s and have heard them in a 2 channel setup as well as home theater. In my setup, I feel like they did better in home theater. I've heard Cornwall IV at a dealer with very good equipment driving them and they sound absolutely amazing for music.

Honestly don't know since they have never been in the same room. Maybe I'll test it this weekHow does this compare to the C7 since you have both?

"why is there peanut butter in the VCR?"
When I was a kid, I wanted to watch the Flintstones on tv, so I put some Flintstone toys in my dad's VCR. Oops

Ok, read and inspect the pictures carefully. I figured I would ask $200 or best offer for this. I am willing to ship at buyer's expense, most likely $100+ to ship because of the weight and size of this speaker. If you are looking for the performance of the RC-7 but don't care about cosmetics, here you go.
This was part of a package deal that my father bought. This speaker was kept in the garage and had significant water damage. It was stored on one side standing up. The front and rear panels started to come unglued from the damage. There was mold on the inside and outside of the cabinet pieces. I sanded everything down to remove the finish and mold, etc. I used a mold killing spray on all the pieces of the cabinet. After that dried over night, I did some finish sanding and stained the cabinet black since the cherry veneer was destroyed from the water damage. The front motorboard panel was spray painted a solid black. I used liquid nail to glue the front and rear panels back in place and let them set up in clamps for several days. There is swelled up mdf areas, nothing is perfectly straight, but the cabinet edges are sealed since I used a liberal amount of liquid nail over all the seems. The woofers have serious dents. The tweeter, ports, and crossover seems fine. The grill is missing 2 pegs and the Klipsch badge. The speaker is solid now and sounds very good to my ears. Feel free to ask me any questions.

Those are kg2 speakers. In good working and cosmetic condition, they are worth roughly $100-200. If they need work, closer to $50. Where are you located? Maybe a forum member is near you and can try to help

I have a set of Crites Type B crossovers that are bi-ampable, not sure how different the crossover design is from the B2.

It's not like there was a year that the issue happened, it was the luck of the draw. I've had early klf30s that really needed it repaired. I currently have consecutive klf30s. One cabinet needed to be repaired, the other didn't, at least not yet. My klf10s, didn't need it and my dad's klf20s didn't need it, but my klf-c7 did. Knock along the cabinets to see if they sound solid or if there's an almost rattle to them. Knock along the front and back panels as all as the sides, but the sides shouldn't need to ever be repaired.

Try to talk to the seller on the phone and walk him through identifying the crossover type and possibly what midrange driver it has

They are on Craigslist as well.

I have never met the seller, but I've heard not great things about him. He sells a ton of audio gear. He does lots of "upgrades" on some speakers. Usually something like a $5 tweeter or something. I would just be careful buying them and check out everything before paying for them.

Hello, I am looking into purchasing a pair of Klipsch Heresy speakers that shows HBR and 8505571 for a S/N from an auction. I cannot find any information on this specific speaker set... any advice?
They are Heresy Birch Raw speakers that were made in 1985

I appreciate it, but it's too of and doesn't have atmos and dts:x which is the biggest thing I needI have 3 Yamaha Pre Pros. Two CX-A5000's and one 5200 currently in my Atmos HT. You dealer only Sounds like he knows what he's talking about. IOW, Bullshit!
The XLR outputs of the Pre Pro can reach 8 volts at the output to drive Long Balanced cables to give you the highest signal to noise ratio possible. I don't know of any RCA based, single ended output that can get beyond 2 volts. All of them have the amazing ESS Sabre DAC chips!
so you get a great DAC for stereo (same chips they used in the OPPO SE series).
If you can live without XLRs on the subwoofer out section, I have an extra CX-A5000 for sale cheap. PM me.

But how do we know this uses fully balanced outputs? All the brands use balanced xlr in the marketing, but I'm being told that this is not true.A friend of mine runs a Yamaha pre-pro fully balanced with all the bells and whistles listed for $2700:

I am thinking about upgrading my home theater from using my Denon AVR-x6200w receiver as a preamp/processor to a real pro/pro. I had my eye on the Marantz AV7706, but I spoke with a dealer about it and he explained with that unit, its basically a receiver without the amp. If I wanted a real change, I should look at the Marantz AV8805a. Another option would be the Anthem AVM70. Another thing he told me that concerned me was pretty much any pre/pro that is under $10k would not be true balanced XLR outputs, its basically just the same thing as the RCA outputs, but using XLR ports to look better and give the appearance of luxury. Is this true? Another unit I was looking at was the Monoprice Monolith HTP-1. Specs list it as balanced outputs, now I am not sure if that is true or not.

I can help with shipping if you want. I'm pretty sure he won't budge on his price. I just picked up a really beat up rc7, but haven't checked it out yet to see how much work is really needed or if it can even be fixed. Reach out to me if you wantI contacted this guy. We were all set, but he backed out last minute after we agreed on the price with shipping.....he said he didn't want to ship it after all.

After you get the finish off, wipe some mineral spirits on the veneer to see what it will look like finished with some sort of clear coat.

4 main systems. I have a 7.1.4 atmos surround sound system in the living room. I have my main stereo system with my khorns in my living room. I have another stereo setup with my belles in my bedroom and RF-7 II speakers hooked up as well on speaker output B. I have an older Marantz surround sound receiver with RB-81 speakers hooked up to my TV in my bedroom.
Then there's my basement. Nothing down there is consistent. I play with all kinds of stuff. Usually I have my Pioneer SX-1010 hooked up to some speakers like my chorus III project. I have some Yamaha separates that I've been playing with down there lately with the chorus III project.
