Budman Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 welcome to the forum MGgirl the 3rd digit ( 4 ) is not a number but a letter which i'm going to guess is an S which stands for 1978 pictures will tell the story and you can find all the info you need right here. just ask type - O stands for Oil and L stands for Lacquer HBR = Heresy Birch Raw HWO = Heresy Walnut Oil / HWL HOO = Heresy Oak Oil / HOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pics of them and the labels will tell entire story of what you have and the year of manufacture, .hint, hint! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Butirich Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Looking at a pair of heresy hbr with only one tag left on one of the speakers. The serial number is 98u301. Would these be from 1980 if S is 1978? I currently own a pair of Klipsch KG1.2 bookshelf speakers that I love. Would this be a major upgrade? I am pretty happy with the bookshelf speakers running off of an old v-fet Sony amp and same vintage turntable. Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click the below link and look for when speakers with an X in the serial number were made. https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/161759-klipsch-heritage-codes/ Current range is about $400-800 depending on wood finish, condition, your location.

The value is tough to judge without any photos since value is affected greatly by cosmetic and working condition. Roughly $400-800 depending on condition, finish, location, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EveryMann Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Hello-- May someone help me in deciphering a date code? I've sifted through many sites, and the codes I'm looking at do not seem to align with any info I'm seeing online. The serial number stamped into the very top rear of the Klipsch Heresy I cabinet: 122W976 Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Industrial speaker serial numbers do not, by themselves indicate year of manufacture, but Klipsch has records of many of the industrials.

ahardbody Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Hello, I have a pair of Heresy's that a former co-worker gave me, I just took pics of the tag on the back of one of them and it says HBR (Heresey, Birch Raw) serial # - 167y498 So does that mean this one is the 167 made out of the batch of 1000 and it was made in 1983?

JRH Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 167 means the 167,498th Heresy built, minus 100 (the first serial number was 101). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregavi Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I have one Heresy that I use as a center channel along with 2 La Scalas. The serial # definitely does not have a letter. It is 8426712. Any ideas as to the year etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRH Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 1984 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregavi Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Thanks JRH. I assume the 1st 2 digits indicate the year. What do the other 5 digits indicate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
