WMcD Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 I like to think the wood was black and that they did not just slap white paint on walnut. OTOH, white works with some decorating schemes and visual reduces the impact of physical size. Audio performance is the same, which is what we're focused upon. But if they're doing white for aesthetics, they should have bought some white grill cloth. Gil Gil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garymd Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 My white RS3IIs blend in with the decor so you don't even notice them. They do have white grill cloth though. Makes a big difference. Those are just butt-ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyC Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 What is the HBR designation. That's what is on the tag on these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyC Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 Oh, ok. I guess it is not as bad to paint raw birch as it would be on say Oiled Walnut! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jnorv Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 You guys obviouly don't remember the German (?) picutes of the white Khorns that showed up on Ebay about 6 months back. Much worse. JIm N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Klipsch sold an off-white product with a gold grill cloth that was very popular in the 50s and 60s. 'Blonde' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt1stcav Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Now if they were a high gloss piano-white finish, they'd be sweet. But white spray paint or paint slapped on with a brush...well, that would just plain suck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill H. Posted May 23, 2004 Author Share Posted May 23, 2004 Trey, Thanks for the info- someone eariler stated Klipsch had made White speakers.............nice to see such a Beautiful Pair, and Yes this does make it eaiser on the Eyes Can folks still Buy Heresys in White, or was this a 60's thing?

Gilbert Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Naaaw!!, those are not that bad....I've seen some real pimped out Klipsch before, but those are just so so custom decorator crap. They'll make a fine set of Garage Speakers. And I also see that garymd has a new personal identifier.....excuse my ignorace garymd, but what is the picture?

jhawk92 Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 Trey- To use an old quote..."I'll buy that(!!) for a dollar!" I'm sure the cuties didn't come with the speakers, but did they do installs? Even though I'd loose bass impact, I'd have the cuties put them up on HIGH bookshelves, maybe with mirrors on the front wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
