Sancho Panza Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 thought maybe I should take this out of the FS thread, will start a new one... at $290 per speaker plus shipping and local tax, I'll pass... rather put that toward a new set of HIIIs or more than one set of used HIIs... called Ryan with Klipsch, no longer includes woofers, but high & mid-range drivers & crossover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 This is what you used to get for less money. They also sent me mid horns at N/C. (you can click twice to enlarge pic) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daddy Dee Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 surprised the Klipsch no longer includes the K-28 woofer in the upgrade kit. The HIII wouldn't be an HIII without a K-28, no? if i'm understanding properly, the HIII crossover is designed for bass output to the 4 ohm K-28 and the 'upgraded HIII' would still have the 8 ohm k-28, right?

That does seem very odd. The deeper and stronger bass is one of the best parts of the update/upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was really happy with the improved sound when I put the kit in one of my Heresy IIs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 Not me, especially without the Woofer, it's a non-starter. Bet I can find a set of HIIIs for close to that cost: $310 including local sales tax Each Plus Shipping Plus cost of HIIs. Guy had a set of Black IIIs in the gs last week for $650. 2 months ago, 2 NiB Black IIIs went for $200.00 Delivered on uMay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Those are some great deals. I haven't seen any used Heresy IIIs for sale around here. Are there any more of those NiB H-3s around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted May 18, 2013 Author Share Posted May 18, 2013 Don't we wish, that was one heckuva deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the heck is uMay? H3's retail at $850.00 each, which generally means that dealer cost is around $425 apiece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sancho Panza Posted May 18, 2013 Author Share Posted May 18, 2013 eBay=uMay ;-) retail & cost have no bearing on what a pair actually sold for; no warranty & black, but $200.00, delivered? Hard to believe, but there it is in the sold listings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 The woofer and network were the main portions of the upgrade kit imho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
