CECAA850 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Personally think selling them is a BIG mistake just my two cents worth. I sold them for $500. I paid $200 for them. No mistake here. The mistake won't be realized unless you try to purchase a pair in the future. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 $300 is a great price for a working pair of H2's in average wear condition. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NowBlasting Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) I'll keep looking out for some Heresy's on Craigslist. Was browsing the Klipsch online store last night...Heresy III's are $1000 a piece? Is there that much of a difference in the models to justify the high price tag?

mustang guy Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 They are brand new, they do indeed sound better, they are made in America, they have a warranty, and you should buy them from a dealer so you can get a juicy discount. Nuff said... I suppose you won't be buying any 70th Anniversary Edn Heresy's then. Just keep your eyes peeled. If you can get a pair under your roof in good shape for under $450-500 you'll be happy. Money well spent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there that much of a difference in the models to justify the high price tag? That's just because they're new. Heresy has never been exactly cheap. Also, Heresy III has titanium tweeter driver.

mustang guy Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I'd say go for it. By the description and the pictures you won't have to do a thing to them. Offer less of course. Watch the end of any episode of Wheeler Dealers. You want to be Mike. HAHA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chriswhotakesphotos Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I'll also vouch for Heresy. I got an older pair a little while ago (KP-201, the professional H2) and to my ear they really spank my RP-280Fs. Not as bassy, but their midrange is magic.

Also, Heresy III has titanium tweeter driver. it also has a titanium mid diaphragm as well as a VERY much more sophisticated crossover network. Better by a wide margin, worth it to the OP, only the OP can answer that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NowBlasting Posted July 24, 2016 Author Share Posted July 24, 2016 I noticed the serial numbers are no longer on the back of them. Is there a way to make sure they are a matching pair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can unless you have the original paperwork or unless you compare the veneer to see if the two speakers are book matched.

NowBlasting Posted July 28, 2016 Author Share Posted July 28, 2016 So the Heresy II's from Craigslist I mentioned are labeled 4 ohm...I have not seen this before. I thought they were all 8 ohm. Does anyone have any info in this? I want to buy them so any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willland Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Whether 8ohm or 4ohm, the Heresys(I,II,III) can be driven with just about anything out there. I have driven mine with as little as a 52w/ch Marantz 2252B receiver up to a 250w/ch Acurus A250 amp with no ill effects at all. IMO, no need to be concerned at all with them labeled 4ohm.

mustang guy Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) Before I would say it's fine to run a 4 ohm speaker, I would like to know what you are connecting it to. A 4 ohm Heresy will draw twice the watts as an 8 ohm Heresy. A big beefy amp can handle that, but just know that if you have the same current in amps that cutting the impedance in half also cuts the wattage the amp is capable of. In other words, a 50 watt 8 ohm amp would be 25 watts, etc. So what amp or receiver are you hooking up to?
