triceratops Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I have a pair of very clean 1982 Heresy's for sale. I bought this pair (and another pair) to use in the living room after selling my Belles to Paul Parrot. Heresy's are very nice speakers, but I was soon hankerin' for Belles in the living room again. I found and bought a replacement pair of Belles in Spokane, WA recently (lots of driving for me)--now I'm selling the Heresy's. These 1982 Heresy's (date code X with consecutive numbers), were bought by me in the used department of Fred's House of Music in Portland, OR (a high-end audio store). They are Birch Raw cabinets that the original owner wiped with a light maple stain and nothing else. The cabinets and drivers are in excellent condition and the cabinets have the factory risers. Any dings or scratches are quite minor and these could me made to look as new with very little effort. These Heresy's sound very clear and tight and are quite efficient. I would like to get $400 for the pair (this is what I paid). I would love it if the buyer was in Washington or Oregon and we could rendezvous somewhere in the middle (I am regularly in Portland and elsewhere in Oregon for my job). If I have to ship the Heresy's I will. No charge for boxing them and they will be packed well (I have shipped speakers to other Forum members before with great results), and the buyer would be responsible for the actual shipping costs (I would suggest Fed Ex Ground as the carrier). I'll post some photos for download. If anyone can make them pop up automatically, I would appreciate the help. Thanks! triceratops Eugene, Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Mobley Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 and I'll vouch for his packing methods and skills. I bought a Model H from him to use between my '60 Khorns, it arrived in Phoenix packed well enough to survive a nearby nuclear explosion. Triceratops is a fanatic when it comes to packing.

paul cbc Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I too can vouch for John as a top notch guy and Klipsch lover. Very fair deal (imho) that comes as no suprise considering the source. Deal with confidently if interested. paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triceratops Posted June 28, 2004 Author Share Posted June 28, 2004 Tom-- Thanks for the help with the images and the packing testimonial! I feel if I don't have the original packing, then I have to create something that is at least as good. Many of our Forum Heritage speakers are 20, 30, 40 years old and still making wonderful music. They deserve to be treated with respect! Paul-- Thanks also for the testimonial. My friend was really stoked about the autographed Fixx album--many thanks for your generosity.

Cornwalled Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 Hello, I would be interested in the Heresys, but they're very far away (I live in PA) so shipping would be pricey, and they're more than I'm able to pay (more in the $300 market at the moment, lol) But I'm sure you'll find someone as yours are in good shape. Take it easy, Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
