heresy2guy Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Just wondering: From what vendor did Klipsch purchase the Forte woofer that so impressed Julian Hirsch (I know, I know...like anybody cares what he thought - lol) in his Stereo Review test of 1986? I was actually amazed to see such a favorable review of what was essentially a heritage-cousin in a major audio publication. Everybody knows the Forte had tremendous bass output, and it even floored Hirsch (particularly the low distortion), so I'm curious as to who made it since I doubt Klipsch manufactured it in house. I think they used Eminence for the Heresy II woofer back then...perhaps they did for the Forte as well??? -H2G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Klipsch made the Forte and Heresy II woofers in house, and by that time the tooling from Hepner was in house as well (mids and HF). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
