If they sound good enough to replace those terrible old Heresy's you've got, let me know as I could probably take them off your hands. LoL Seriously, I realize you've got a lot of time & effort in this project but whenever there's time to get that BOM posted I'm sure several here would find it invaluable. Thanks

This popped up a while back and I just recently really looked at it. https://anchorage.craigslist.org/ele/d/klipsch-oak-speakers/6694230660.html Contacted the seller & informed them that this wasn't a KG-4. Obviously by the picture & dimensions it's a Quartet but the KG-1 binding cup is very concerning. They are lost. Someone told them it was a KG-4. Hope they aren't using that KG-1 binding cup with the KG-1 X/O. 😮

Been following this as a 'true' portable sound box is always in demand. Gone through more factory work boxes than I care to remember (Milwaukee, Ryobi, DeWalt etc.). Is an updated material list coming in the near future?

Chose a couple of these 2-piece w/ 12" grills. https://www.parts-express.com/parts-express-steel-mesh-2-piece-grill-for-12-speaker-black--260-428 Thanks all.

@Skichuck77 Thanks. Added hurricane nuts & stainless allen head screws to drivers so drilling around passives isn't an issue. I'll check them out.

Wanting to protect my KG4 PR's from prying Italian Greyhound noses & other possible issues when they are moved around. Finally found the time to upgrade the X/O's and tweets, amazing difference in SQ and imaging. Also trying to negotiate for a pair of Quartets on CL & will want to protect those too. Tried searching older threads for an answer but couldn't find much on it. Wondered about some 12' automotive sub woofer grills but not sure where to source them. Anyone have any 'ingenious' & attractive options?

Yes, I agree. Ran the Sony DA1800ES room EQ. Probably not the best EQ but has always made a noticeable difference in the past. Also connected two channels up straight to my Carver M1.01 & M200t amps fed with a digital signal from my Cambridge 851N. Again, clear & crisp but diminutive sound with no presence or authority.

Thinking something was wrong with mine. No distortion, clear & detailed but no mid range volume, very directional with a narrow band of detail in that if your listening height / location changed more than a few inches the SQ deteriorated immediately. I'm a firm proponent of sub's but I better be more impressed with the stand alone sound of a $2k+ speaker than the beautiful finish. In this case I wasn't. Set my pair of 1990 KG1's with Crites rebuilt x/o's & Ti diaphragms in place of the sound bar and it was a night & day difference. Love the brand just not this particular speaker. Hope it was a one off issue.

As was my expectation. Sadly disappointed.

I have a RW10 for the sub and used it. Sound was hollow and disconnected without it. I realize it's a very small enclosure but my Polk 5 channel surround bar sounds so much fuller & lifelike. Hooked the bar up directly to my Carver M1.0t thinking the Sony DA188ES Receiver might be the issue. Still sounded like a pair of Bose Cubes to me. Maybe it's defective. Called Crut......d. & explained my problem, they said send it back. Have always been satisfied with their customer service. Already noticed that they have a returned & refurbished one for sale on their site. Should have known better to wait until the reviews were available.

Listened to it for 2 weeks. Packed it up and sent it back. Crystal clear highs, little mid range & no low end what so ever. Beautiful speaker but highly over priced for $2200. Really disappointed. Wanted so bad to love it but my 2 KG1's for $50 sounded better in the same place. 😐

Emailed Customer Service about it but got no response.

Nope. Strictly Passive

Here's pics of the Heritage Theater Bar if anyone is interested. Very well packaged & Beautiful Walnut finish as expected.

So thought I'd add the 'Sound Bar' to the 'Cart' for the fun of it just to check pricing and this came up. Not ordering another one right away!!

Sorry to Hijack the thread but would like to learn more about your 'stacking' experience. Have 1 pair of KG4's & looking at a 2nd pair for stacking. Stacking identical speakers is fascinating to me. Makes perfect sense but know there are negative effects also. With their built in stands I suppose you aren't inverting the top one are you? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

This is our local CL Klipsch selection https://fairbanks.craigslist.org/ele/6675483943.html Asked about Serial #'s & what color they were and his response was....... 47R990 and 47R993 kind of a light peach i would say... not a bad paint job, but too bad they werent left alone. price is OBO So am I reading the number right that these are '77 H1 not H2? Any suggestion on an 'appropriate' offer?

Are you saying a RAID 1 single bay is not a backup? I think I understand that a multi-bay drive can mirror the back up and a single bay can't ??

Decided to pull the trigger on the Cambridge 851D. Can't stand having my Iphone tied up when streaming my playlists or Spotify anymore. All reviews were pretty positive & they seem to be out of stock everywhere (hoping that is a good thing). Have one on back order from Cru...field. Still need to figure out the stand alone NAS issue. Something other than memory sticks. Need to have a solid storage media apart from any laptop etc. Anyone chime in with experience in this matter? Looking for just a couple Terabits of storage. And simplicity is key because I'm not digitally talented.

Nope, your not alone. I like to think it's somewhat of an exclusive club. That's what I keep telling myself anyway. Audio equipment is my 'Achilles' heel, especially speakers.

A fools born every minute.

Well, it's ordered in Walnut. The living room remodel has gotten to the point where a decision had to be made. Would have much preferred a pair of H3's and they'd of been cheaper, but on wall or in wall were the only options provided by the Boss. No wall space on the sides & Architectural speakers would only have fit above or below TV area & stud location screwed up symmetrical layout. Really, really hope I'm not making a mistake spending $2200 for a 'Bar'. Can't find any actual reviews. Even Youtube only had one review in German or some other language that didn't help any. This thing better rock or I'm going to sink like one. Now I'm wondering if I should consider the RP-402S Surround Sound Speakers instead of using my KG-1's. The RP-402S don't seem to be available yet.

Only refreshing this thread because I'm at the threshold of ordering the Heritage Theater Bar due to my wifes' insistence that I come up with an acceptable solution to floor speakers in front of the Flat Screen. Does anyone out there have this yet or heard it?? Really want to order it. Know it's really new and must be a great Klipsch product but can't find any reviews out there for it.

This is what was recommended for 'tightening' up the bass specifically on speakers with passive radiators. http://www.blackhole-america.com/five.html

Thanks for that. I frequent this forum, the Polk Audio forum & the Carversite mainly and find all of these to be extremely informative & entertaining. The knowledge & experience of these sites is quite wide spread and everyone is quick to help with all issues. And a little 'self-promotion' on your part is well deserved.👍 As soon as I hit submit on the last post it dawned on me that it might be taken as somewhat derogatory, which I certainly didn't intend. Have always appreciated the different geographical 'language inflections' & variations. Glad you took it that way. My wife worked with an 'Aussei' for several years who was married to a 'Kiwi'. It would be a shame to make it all the way to 'Down Under' & not also enjoy the 'God Zone' also ! Thomas
