Klipsch pro is basically Klipsch heritage 2.0?

[Heritage_Head]

Minus the cosmetics and a few other things of course ….Thoughts? 

[the real Duke Spinner]

Ptetty much. 🙄

[CWOReilly]

Hmmm. I really like my LS Splits! Can’t say more than my LS in the living room.

klipsch Pro speakers are Heritage  sleepers than can handle more power   .

 I think it's even more than that when you move up to the 2" exit drivers, whole new world.

Are Klipsch Pro speakers made in the US?

(relevant question if you want to compare with the Heritage line) 

[the real Duke Spinner]

Yes, made in Hope

[avguytx]

Most people in a foreign country would not know where Hope, AR is.  Hell, a lot of people in AR can't tell you where Hope, AR is.  lol

you have to ask yourself... what constitutes a Klipsch speaker being classified as 'HERITAGE'.

 

is it merely the usage of the same (or similar) wave guides, drivers or cabinet designs?

[Heritage_Head]

It would be cool if they went a little more in between the pro line, and Heritage. What I mean is Heritage speakers are really expensive (to my pocketbook anyways)  if you buy new,  and the pro line is an unfinished product at best (I would take performance overlooks but I think I’m in the minority). I guess I mean not something quite as beautiful as a heritage, but something a little bit more upscale than a behind the screen pro line finish speaker.

For me it's all about the sound. Like I've said before you can always make up some BS like " that came from Frank Zappa's studio rig" for some tired looking LS Splits.

Thanks! I just remembered my La Scalas used to belong to Roger Waters 😃.

Heritage is anything PWK had a hand in.

The MWM cabinets came out of a club somewhere. They went to two other owners before I got them and were nearly mint. I really wish I hadn't sold them.

Yowser.  🤪

Looking at your picture (love it by the way)....  I know the 402 might be better on top of those BUT, to set a 402 on top, you'd have to lay those flat and in some rooms that "might" create some space issues (HA!, did I say might?)

 

I wonder how your setup would work with the MWM doubles sitting like they are....  put a shelf on the front cover at an appropriate angle so that on that shelf, you could set a K510 instead of the 402.

 

Just wondering out loud before I leave for work.  I'll let Roy figure out those details!

Richard, you nailed it! Doors in the room prevented laying them horizontal. I have some k69 drivers and selenium horns (slightly larger than k510s) and wanted to do as you said, mounting the horns in the middle.

 

Still, I just used the LS tops (woofer disconnected) and MWM wired in.

 

Bass was even throughout the room. But the LS and MWMs are both gone and temporarily back to Heresy IIs.  The MWMs really have exceptional bass. Very, very smooth and effortless with little work.
