ReSOURCE VT Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Hello Everyone, I run a local Non-Profit in Vermont known as ReSOURCE. We get donations from the local community on a frequent basis. We support local job training and poverty relief through a wide range of programs that are supported through our donors. We receive everything under the sun, from truckloads of unopened appliances that were the wrong color to a pair of Klipsch Heresy speakers. We sell our higher end donations on both E-Bay and Craigslist. I did some preliminary research on the donated speakers trying to determine valuation. They are corner models, the ID tag on the back Klipsch Heresy Industrial loudspeaker system, Type HI-SM Serial #2768. Before I attempt to sell them online I need to know as mush about them as possible. Thank you for your consideration and help!

babadono Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Others will chime in here I'm sure that have more expertise than I but I think those are "Heresy Industrial Slant Monitors". And look to be in pretty nice condition to boot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Yes, not corner Heresys. They were monitors designed to lay on their sides on the stage pointing at the performers. They're fine as conventional speakers though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjimbo Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Very nice from what I can see....A few more photos of other surfaces, and you shouldn't have any problem selling them here in Garage Sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReSOURCE VT Posted March 29, 2019 Author Share Posted March 29, 2019 Here are the backs, these speakers look to be in perfect condition. I can't find a scratch or ding on them anywhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Those are nice. $700 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I thought I had a brochure, but no. As HI-SMs, they should have the heavy cast frame woofer from the HIP (Industrial, ported) and I expect should sell for about the same price. Have you checked ebay for actual sales? Please post a link to your sale site. Will you ship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1101 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 If you can ship those to Georgia, let me know how much you want for them. They are rare and I have a spot for those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReSOURCE VT Posted March 29, 2019 Author Share Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) I have not put these up for sale anywhere. I stumbled on this site trying to identify them so I could determine valuation. It looks as if this place to sell them too. I will move this over to the "For Sale" section. My question still remains, what is a fair value? They are heavy so the price would have to include shipping. I also have no idea how to describe what they are etc. Edited March 29, 2019 by ReSOURCE VT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 your ad should say Birch Raw HI-SM which stands for Heresy Industrial - Stage Monitors you don't need to describe anything more because the pictures tell the story. anybody seriously interested in them will know what they are. i would take the backs off of both and snap a picture of the insides to make sure they are what the label says K-77 tweeter K-55 V midrange K-42 woofers HI - crossovers if i were you i would make a deal with Mark1101 and keep them in the family😁 just saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panelhead Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I need those too. Would me a reason to get a stage to sit them on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1101 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 If you want to make a deal with me you can skip the disassembly and pictures. Just send me a private message and we can discuss. If you want to advertise further I would do what Budman suggests to prove out the product further for those who may desire that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frzninvt Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Gents, these are right up the road from me but I already have four pair of Heresy's but am interested in them. These are more than likely early 80's models since they have the cast aluminum input plate. I think $375 to $500 or so is more of a fair price range $700 is high even though they are in great shape. I am planning to go up to Williston sometime today and check them out if they are available for viewing. I would use these as Atmos speakers replacing a pair of black cabinet HIP's that I have. These are very heavy and very akward and expensive to ship best to drive and pick them up to maintain the condition that they are in. PM sent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
