Speedball Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Could there be much of a difference in sound between them and regular heresy's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djk Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 "Could there be much of a difference in sound between them and regular heresy's? " While the original Heresy is quite lean in the bass, the HIP has virtually none below 100hz or so. It is as efficient as the Klipschorn above about 200hz, and an 8 ohm load. They do well with subs at 100hz~150hz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 I have a friend in a bluegrass band who wants them for PA use. Just vocals, guitar and fiddle mostly. They'd be perfect. He saw my LSI's and fell in love, but has to travel light. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal Blacksmith Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Only one word to say Michael, AUCTIONSNIPER.COM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 I know Cal, I didn't really want them that bad, but I've paid $300 for nominal looking regular Heresies! If they were for me, I'd probably gone that route.....but thanks for the reminder. Another clue would have been that they were listed under PRO gear, so many bidders wouldn't have seen them,, and they were being sold by an auction house, so probably no reserve price, since they wouldn't have a studied idea of the value. I probably should have taken more thought and snagged these. Someone got a pretty nice deal. Of course they have non-Klipsch woofers also, so there's a sticking point. Another Forum member said he bid on them just for fun, I'm hoping that this was the winning bid and that I might get them after all. But that chance is probably slim.

rplace Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 I would have easily bid $400, but since you said you wanted them I did not. Guess I'll have to hold out for the LSI with aluminum trim...gee Michael...know where I can get a pair? [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colterphoto1 Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 Wish you'd PM'd me Rich, if I'd known you wanted them BADLY and for yourself, I would have gladly stepped aside. Of course we'll never know what the other guy bid. I'm hoping someone here got them. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rplace Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 I really did not want them badly, but figured they must be worth 350-400. I surely don't need another pair of speakers....or do I..... LSIs for the garage would be my dream set up...but I bet the wife would not think so. I just like the industrial look. Some day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 yeah, me too, but you really HAVE to get two pairs of LSI's so the horns are up high enough. Makes a stack exactly 6' tall! I've got Deep Purple on there right now... Getting shop cleaned out to begin whittling those CW grilles out. If I get a second chance at those HIP's I'll send them your way. Eastern Penn. is a whole lot closer to you than me. I've got a pair of beater H's that I'm going to round off corners and 'glass anyway- so there's my 'industrials' in a way....

Corvette6769 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Here is another pair of Heresy HIP in Pittsburgh on eBay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=9730813653 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frzninvt Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 I saw those but they appear to have been reworked, or at least sanded and repainted. I would verify if the internals are stock before diving in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted May 24, 2006 Author Share Posted May 24, 2006 Definitely fresh paint. I'll wait a bit and start the questioning. Maybe Vette would sell me a pair of his Glass HIP's? Or Gilbert decide he doesn't really need all 4 from the church? I tried making a pair of fibreglass ones, never again- that is the nastiest messiest stuff on earth.

rplace Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 I'd love a set of glass HIPs. Don't them make them with the aluminum trim too? Just like a mini LS. There seems to be many incarnations of the industrial. Wood, FG, metal trim or not, etc. Who has the ultimate list of options??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
