jjptkd Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Nice find! I think the II's sound better for home use than the originals which are very forward in the mid range, much like you'd expect from a PA speaker. The II's also use a 2" titanium mid driver that screws onto a Tractrix k-701 horn. The stock driver sounds ok but I found swapping a k-55 in place sounds a lot better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-js- Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 KP 250, in this case, KP 250 II - is that a professional version of which model - Heresy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjptkd Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Yes, pro Heresy that is ported so its a lot louder with higher sensitivity but less bass impact, really need a sub with these where a standard Heresy its more optional. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opusk2k9 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I have a pair. The woofer basket (frame) is much heavier than the KP-201 woofer. The woofers weigh a lot more and are easier to remove (only 4 bolts) than in the KP-201. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim I hear ya Tim. my GF is beginning to accept my 'illness', after watching me chase stuff around the area, watching CL etc all the time. now, I feel like I give a little too - I'm trying to restrain myself for now to Heritage series, and until we find out for sure if we will move, to only those deals deemed "too good to pass up" but that in itself has inherent latitude... at least in my mind it does John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTOH I think those are exactly what I would want if I had small children or cats as those are nicely protected in the front by that steel grill. Those are not pretty, but I see your point how they could blend in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily, my wife is very unobservant, so I can often bring items in under the cover of darkness and she normally doesn't even notice. If the money came out the of bank account, she would notice. If it comes out of speaker funds, I am normally in the clear. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Women train us men to believe that they are unobservant. In all reality it is us men who are clueless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guarantee does not cover shark bite, bear attack or damage caused by children under five. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
