Little Wolf Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Hello everyone, I have two set of Heresy III. They are apparently identical, but rear labels are different: In your opinion what are the differences ? (if there are). Thanks, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 (edited) Interesting...may only be a label issue, as in what was available. Others will say... Dealer or Klipsch direct? Edited June 24, 2021 by billybob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Wolf Posted June 24, 2021 Author Share Posted June 24, 2021 the first one bought few weeks ago (ex-demo) from a dealer. The second bought three years ago from a Klipsch fan 😉 Also original boxes are different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuzzzer Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 All they did was change the labels and boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, The veneer is different , from one set to the other, if you check closely -and the Tags at the rear are not identical , but with a different script and overall design - these 2 sets are both pairs of Cherry Heresy II , but the veneer on each pair is bookmatched if the pairs are consecutively serial numbered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The H was originally sold as a single speaker, not as a pair. My 1972 Hs do not have consecutive numbering, there's a difference of 8 or so in the count. I guess, if they weren't veneer bookmatched, it didn't matter much if the numbers were consecutive or not... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islander Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 It may be that the bookmatched pairs are in the La Scalas, Khorns, and maybe Cornwalls, but not the Heresys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From older posts I've read the matched pairs didn't always make it to the PX (or the like) together and you got what you got. Or. Maybe they didn't know to keep them together to start with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang_flht Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Hi, The black label is from 2019, the brown one is from 2010. The pairing of the pairs is indicated on the box, but not on the enclosure itself, indicating which enclosure number corresponds to the boxed enclosure. example of the pairing of my CWIII, Number 15180015 matche with 15180016, and vice versa 15180016 matching with 15180015 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
