moray james Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) time to re address the Heritage line before it becomes insignificant The Heritage line will never become insignificant to Klipsch. There's a reason we STILL make those awesome speakers and sell them. Aren't many of our competitors that can say that, IMHO. Come on Chad are you trying to tell me that a new two way Heritage line up and or two way Forte lll or two way Chorus lll all with K510 would not BLOW the doors of the originals? We all love Klipsch here but lets face it the Heresy lll at $1800.00 plus tax is not setting the world on fire. The K701 horn is a very tired old narrow bandwidth horn design so is the K401 neither are of use to the modern world of loudspeakers you don't use them in any pro gear and they are long past their best before date. The time has come. The new owners claim that PWK was a mad man, that makes me feel sick. Give Roy the task and have him build some new classics. Short of this I have given up on the Klipsch home loudspeakers today, I love the man and the heritage (and the members here) but there is nothing you make that is new that I would buy or even recommend. Not holding my breath. Best regards Moray James. Edited December 16, 2014 by moray james Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coytee Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Though I'm not personally expecting it, I think it would be cool as beans if they offered a factory LaScala in a 2-way format just like Moray mentioned. At least give the option for a factory top with a 510/69 installed. Could probably get away with that with a couple other designs (Cornwall, Heresy (?))

homeskizzle Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Hey Youth, you still have those pictures you photoshopped with the RF7 IIs, but with 4 woofers? Not saying it's gonna happen, but those were still funny to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Something Bluetooth. Something with a heavy Audiovox influence. Something made with a lot of plastic.

The Dude Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I would like to see a crossover between reference and pro audio, like nice towers but with pro audio drivers. Also would like to see smaller towers and surrounds with real wood veneer. Rs-62ii's with veneer instead of plastic for example. I was thinking cross between pro and Heritage. time to re address the Heritage line before it becomes insignificant. Time for a larger two way Heresy IV and a new LaScalal lll Cornwall IV and Khorn ll all two ways with the K510. That would be significant. I am not holding my breath that 2015 holds much of interest in store. Best regards Moray James. I'm with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heritage_Head Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Nah we need some black reference cones. Gotta separate them from the new "reference" best buy thingy ma bobs they have now.I really liked the copper. But now after seeing it all over those cheap best buy speakers it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Maybe a really dark copper that's almost black would look cool.
