JohnJ Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 TOO FAR man! I'll know in a week or so, getting a pair myself. I'm psyched about getting them. I'll have to re-arrange this 1400 sq ft of stuff to figure out how to make it work. Can't just put these on the tv rig. I've felt bad about letting my Heresy IIs go just like selling my first car. But I'll be over all that soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEH Synergy Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Gotcha. Who is in California anyways? I don't see posts from anyone in CA that make it obvious as to their location. I know there a few a few, but are we the Supreme minority in that regards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Evening @ClaudeJ1 Gotta tell you while we're here that I saw this thread before, but really went through it after I saw some in another thread.

MEH Synergy Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Ha I know. Im playing. CA Market for HFI is rampant but klipsch doesn't seem to be what it should be here. Klipsch NEEDS to go on a roadshow. People would buy the heritage series if they heard em. Don't bother with any other series. They will buy blindly. I'll beat a dead horse and state it again. If klipsch was to demo the heresy III, sales would increase dramatically. For those of you that haven't heard them IN YOUR OWN ROOM, please don't speak on what you think they are or aren't 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

California has about 33 million people in it.......only ONE state. I wasn't trying to be insulting at all, it was a joke about the probability that BOSE sales were high in CA simply because they have more people, PERIOD. Assuming the sales volume exists in the same proportion in all states, the likelihood of my comment being true is very high.................plus I was just trying to be funny. Failure is a frequent option in the world of both Pro and Amateur comedy, so relax, ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those of you that haven't heard them IN YOUR OWN ROOM, please don't speak on what you think they are or aren't Good point. I think you'd be very successful doing that, since the population density is so high (max sonic exposure), like putting a pair of LaScalas on a parade float or something, but the PERMIT fees would kill the deal, methinks.

I have owned many, many pairs or Heresy's 1, 1.5, and the PRO versions. But I have never heard any Heresy III's. I just wanted to make old Heresy 1's better than factory, since we DIY Modders do not have any production cost or marketing constraints standing in the way of using better/more expensive drivers in those boxes and putting holes in them to use BOTH sides of the cones for lower distortion bass and midrange output. The $20,000 Klipsch Palladiums as well as the $125,000 Wilson speakers all use bass reflex in their designs, along with everything in between in similar fashion.

MEH Synergy Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 LA scalas on a float parade. I like that one! Whenever possible, my buddies that are new to audio and interested in hearing what my obsession is, I always jump on thay opportunity. I'm relaxed, dont worry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might have been impressive though! Yeah, poor man's quad. I bet JimJimbo could verify this with a test cause he prolly has a couple pair of them. Might be a poor test though because I doubt he did as good a job on his SH"s as I did...hehehe... My phone Wall of Fame: Kind of a dusting nightmare. My wife lets me keep them there in the LR if I promise to do the dusting. Did you know New York city had a phone system in 1880's? See 2nd phone from the left, a "sorta" typical phone of that period. The big battery box (lower compartment) phones, are Western Electric (Ma Bell) and were considered better for calling long distance, course they worked with local phones just fine. As batteries got smaller so did crank phones, just like cell phones. The magnet group (used for shocking fish to the surface so you could scoop them into your boat) located inside the upper compartment actually delivers AC voltage, and it could be looked at as sort of the first AC motor. Those old phone systems were single conductor; they used the earth as the second wire. Lightning took them out often. Wonder if the party line listener ever got shocked by lightning because he/she were omnipresent listening to other folk's conversation. My folks had an old Kellogg crank phone up thru the early 60's. I never called my girl on that phone. Drove to town and called her on the hotel's fancy pay phones in their lobby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springy Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Just wondering if anyone has done this to the Heresy 2's? I have just stumbled across a pair and I have a pair of Tangent 400 which is ported and sounds better than the H2 except for the horrible cabinets that rattle. I'm considering building some cabinets and making 4 Super Heresy's out of them using Type E or Crites crossovers.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlson3 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 the Super Heresy as intended, and placed in a corner, doesn't look too shabby vs the Khorn. LB76 vented looks potent and corner placement takes out its lump but its LF cutoff is rather high. (Someone good with WinISD might - ?- get somewhat more accurate bass reflex sims) 100 - 200 watts per channel with Delta Pro12A would be nice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the Tangent uses all the same parts as the HII, I would build 4 new cabinets, with the same dimension as the Tangent 400 and move all the parts. Other than having a flimsy cabinet, the 400s are really good. Bruce 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
