He said to just make an offer, he is more interested in getting rid of them than trying to make money.

I thought this was interesting, and I should share it...

Wow, very nice. I would think that they are worth every penny.

They appear to be very nice, and worth the price. I am close enough to Ocala to pick them up for a prospective buyer... https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/4715784621767972 Vintage PAIR OF KLIPSCH HERESY II SPEAKERS ~ FORTE II ~ Excellent! A pair of high end KLIPSCH HERESY II SPEAKERS. Very good used condition. See photos, these are very nice! www.facebook.com 

They appear to be in reasonable shape. Oak. Dusty but nice. No pics of the backsides, unfortunately, but we know what they are... https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/390704655784864/ Klipsch Heresy Speakers w/upgraded Crites tweeters and crossovers. W/matching oak stands Recently upgraded with Crites tweeters and crossovers. The cabinets were refinished and look better than new. The sound is absolutely amazing. Comes with custom made matching oak stands www.facebook.com 

Born in 1985, and it is a "Heresy 2" because it appears to be a non-removable back panel (with no screws holding the panel in place).

Sorry, I took a verbal shortcut.

Ever run on a treadmill and not moved forward?

Pure willpower.

I have no real knowledge about these, but the price seems cheap. Are they worth picking up? VINTAGE MG-IIB MAGNEPLANAR LOUDSPEAKERS VINTAGE MG-IIB MAGNEPLANAR LOUDSPEAKERS, not working, ready for rewire, great condition exterior. www.facebook.com 

And the answer is no, planes on treadmills will not take flight. It's all about how much air movement can be generated over the tops of the wings to create the vacuum needed for lift. On a treadmill the planes will stay firmly planted. You make the wheels turn fast, but in relation to the air the plane is not moving at all. *<;o)

Well, after a month of listening to them... ...they are fantastic. I'm feeding them via the 100W RMS mono blocks, and the sound is simply divine! They hold their own with the 3002's at the power levels I'm feeding them.

If you do decide to paint them black, do yourself (or a future owner) a favor. Spray a good layer of lacquer over them first. This way the black paint does not get into the grain of the wood, and they will be easy to restore later.

Free bump on me~! Nice speakers~!

@Iteachstem It's a very good idea to protect your expensive electronics from brownouts, power drops and spikes, and from lightning strikes. I personally have 7 UPS, one each on every system.

@Brett10 VERY nice looking set. Hopefully this will fill a need for someone on the forum!

I should have been clearer in my post. "Your" meant the all-inclusive. Everyone that worked on doing this upgrade, Chad plus everyone else who had a hand in it.

Don't get me wrong, I love the changes and the (somewhat) new look. I appreciate all of your time on the admin side doing upgrades like these, as they are never quite as straightforward nor easy as they are made out to be. A big "Thank You!" to everyone involved.

I think I would rather swap the post counts out, and keep the reaction counts. This will remove the impetus to simply post "Me too" solely for a higher post count. I think it will actually facilitate quality content over raw post counts...

I'm wondering why the reaction counts were removed...?

It doesn't seem to be affecting the sound at all. I took it to mean that the box construction was still tight and has not been beaten up with travel and use. I will keep an ear on it.

They turned out to be fantastic. The sound is now more full and the stage seems wider. More comments once I've run them for a while. One thing I did notice while carrying them into the house was the box "rang" when I lightly bumped it against a door jam. It vibrated like a bell.

Thank you, I definitely did. These turned out to unused, or nearly so. No scratches. At all. No wear or tear, no gunk in the rat fur, nothing. Just pristine. I will be hooking them up in a few minutes to see how they get along with the rest of the system, but I don't foresee any issues. It doesn't look like anyone has ever plugged in a 1/4" connector in the back of these things. According to the owner, his half brother was a musician who bought these new and only used them a couple of times, which is believable due to the condition.
