I agree with your solution to let your ears adjust to the sound of the FORTE III. [emoji106] Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

As for height, do not lift it off the ground. The speaker is already high and you would put in low range because you would move the woofer away from the floor. With the HERESY, despite the risers, there was the problem height but with the FORTE III no. In addition, the TRACTRIX horn has a greater angular dispersion and sounds very well.

The problem of removing the grill was already present on the HERESY III even if the space between the grid and the speaker edge was greater than on the FORTE III. On HERESY III I had inserted a cotton ribbon pointed with a pin inside the frame of the grill. About 2 cm. of this tape came out from the edge making it easy to lift and grip. On FORTE III this is no longer possible due to the close tolerances between the frame and the diffuser edge. I had to leave the rubber washers. Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

Hahaha! No, I'm extremely jealous of my tape recorders. In addition to these two I also have a TASCAM 34B. Their sound with FORTE III is amazing![emoji1] Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

I agree with you Dtel! The HERESY were in cherry but I saw that the FORTE III was too light. Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

Fantastic and beautiful finish! My are in American walnut. Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

First I used a pair of HERESY III. I liked them a lot but in the low range something was missing. These FORTE III are of the HERESY of age. Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

I've never listened to the RF-7 but FORTE II really like them. Low range extended and well braked and balanced, never booming. It does not regret the bass horn load. Extremely efficient with just a few watts, they are able to create very large environments. Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

Thank you Dtel! I'd be curious to understand the previous problem. Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

I know, but without the rubber washers the grills goes flush with the edge of the speakers and with the nails it becomes difficult to remove them. If I leave the washers, is there any problem? Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

I avoided removing the four rubber washers, as suggested by the warning because otherwise it becomes almost impossible to be able to remove the grill again

Hello everyone! Today, finally, I have arrived at my house two new Forte III, consecutive serial and this time everything is perfect. They are already playing for a few hours, you must have the patience to do a bit of break-in but as I had already heard from the previous couple, they play very well and the low range, one that was lacking in Heresy III, here is very present and full-bodied . Naturally, I must thank all those interested in replacing my loudspeakers, from Klipsch to the Italian importer MPI Electronics in Milan and up to the Hi-Fi Prestige store in Genoa in the person of Mrs Carla. They were all very kind and quick as possible.

Between the two Forte III there is the space for a JBL PARAGON instead of that piece of furniture .... Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

Thank you for your testimony Mustang! Tomorrow afternoon the FORTE III will leave from home to their place of birth, another pair of FORTE III with the same finish is traveling to Genoa (Italy).I'm sure everything will be ok. The Italian importer and sales points were very kind and fast.Thanks also to Klipsch for the attention to the customer. The TASCAM 34B have a superb sound.

DizRotus, unfortunately I must tell you the same thing: I am sick of leukemia for a year and a half but in the process of recovery. Everything is ok and I lead a normal life with my job, sports, mountain bike, I continue the medical checks and the therapies and I listen as much as possible good music with the Klipsch!

Thanks DizRotus but we must understand that a problem can always happen. Important to understand the value of a company is how the latter behaves towards its customers. Even the points of sale and various importers must prove to be up to the brand they represent and I must say that until now I can not complain. We also keep in mind that in the calendar there were also the Christmas festivities that have lengthened the time of at least two weeks.It is important for KLIPSCH to see the faulty speaker and understand what it can be derived from so that it will not happen again in the future. I am sure that they understand the possible damage of image that an event of this type can involve, have a customer who believes in them and that we see a loud speaker coming from a high value. They certainly made a jump in the chair when they saw the photos that the Italian importer sent him through me. They also wanted the pictures of the packaging, in perfect condition, because they could not believe it.I hope to find out about the cause, out of personal curiosity and of all the very kind friends of this forum. It's worth it, the FORTE III have a resounding soundI'll keep you up-to-date.

News on the FORTE III fault: the sales point in Italy will send the pair of speakers in the US because they want to inspect them to understand what can be done (right!). Probably in the next week I will be given a new pair of FORTE III with the same finish.DTel: will there be a way to know from KLIPSCH the cause of the problem? I'm really curious!Thank you all

DizRotus, you are right. Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

Wvu80, the cabinet in wood is equipped with a rear double cooling fan, among the quietest on the market (Noctua 7 db at 800 RPM). The final for mid / high works in class A and therefore warms up a lot. In summer the restaurant is air conditioned.

Here my two of three RTR. The other one is an Tascam 34B. Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

I add another detail: the two speakers have been delivered by the Italian courier in a horizontal position and on a wooden EU-standard platform to which they were wrapped and protected by a thick plastic shrink film.I personally watched the unloading of the speakers.More than this...

Maybe boys and...rarely happens!
