No More "Quasi-Heritage" - Our Identity Is Confirmed!

Hello:

The speakers that came before those that I mentioned plus the Rebel, Shorthorn AND those with no logo that came before are Heritage. The reason I brought logo into the discussion was the "pie" - PWK" distinction that I am familiar with. I do apologize for not giving recognition to those that did not have a logo - I truly would like to hear them.

I for one am slow to accept change. It takes a while. I still miss seeing Heresys, LaScalas, Cornwalls and K-Horns in my Klipsch dealers sound room. I guess a part of me is that 2 channel stereo dinosaur that evolved from Mono. Models of all stereo/HT seem to come and go so fast while the Heritage line seemed to stand for something solid.

3 way, no sub-woofer necessarily needed (I am not saying anything against sub-woofers) models that were around for a while and produced during the Founder's lifetime and involvement with the Company have just always seemed to be his Heritage. Like old friends, they hold a place in our heart. And Mr. Klipsch holds a valued spot in our minds. Enjoy listening, but the changes and additional costs take a while to accept. Even going from Mono to Stereo took a while and we were not thrilled by the added cost.

Now we have HT, the change to CDs, and now 180 gram vinyl, DVDs, so many Interconnects, Speaker Cables, Power Cords, Line Conditioners, etc. it seems to be a case of let's change it quick and some of the enjoyment has gone to the changes. Sorry for the ramble, I'm just feeling age today.

Doug-

Thanks for the heads-up. Yahoo!! Now I am a Heritage owner to the power of 3.5 (K-horn, Chorus II, Forte II, and Academy)!!! Maybe I should go edit my post on the Heritage owner's poll post??

Dean-

I'm with you there. Any speaker with a name has always been Heritage in my book.
