whell Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 Has anyone ever had a chance to compare these two products? Which do you like better and why? I mightbe able to score some Heresy II's for not many duckets, but they would replace my KG 4's, which I am very fond of. Unfortunatley, I will not have a chance to do a side by side demo before purchase. Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougdrake Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 Whell - Welll, I've heard both in my house, and they are really different animals. The KG-4, for its size, is a tremendous speaker with nice bass. It is a 2-way speaker. The Heresy has a totally different sound - quite a bit more open, and "big." As a 3-way speaker, I think it has a "cleaner" sound, as well. However, the bass probably isn't as deep. I'd say go for the Heresy's, and keep the KG-4's if you have them.

dmk Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 I agree with Doug. I have the hereseys and a relative has the KG-4. Bothe are excellent speakers. Buy the Heresey and keep the KG-4 for future use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobBeam Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 I worked part time at a shop that sold klipsch when I was in college and both the Heresy and kg4 were available. If you like the sound of the kg4 and it has to be either/or (you can't keep both) then make sure you take a listen to the Heresy first before switching. They aren't even close in the way they sound.

AndyKubicki Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 Yet another perspective from a KG 4 owner...I listen to mine in the bedroom when I can't listen to my KHorns in the living room and find them a nice occassional change from the KHorns, though I would NEVER give up the KHorns.

whell Posted August 14, 2003 Author Share Posted August 14, 2003 Thanks to all for your responses. Sounds like the Heresy's for the more "open sound". I'll be giving them a try, and delay selling the KG-4's as long as I can until I'm sure I'm getting what I want out of the Heresy's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
