big_gto Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Bought a pair of 1986 Heresy II's for $200 off of Craigslist.com. They were originally Oiled Walnut, but now are painted black. Fortunately the paint is one coat and I can see the wood in a lot of spots. I will return them to WO. The serial numbers are sequential! They sound great.! All components are in great shape. Inside cabinets were a QC tag with employee sign-off. Talk about quality! My kg 4.2's have more bass and less midrange. They are keepers for sure. Right now they're connected to a Technics surround receiver. Today I'll connect them to my Carver C-1 pre-amp and M-400t. Compare them against my Cerwin Vega DX-9's. Can't beat the pricing for used Klipsch speakers.[<)] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcmusic Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 The vega's will hold an edge in the bottom end. Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrot Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Big GTO, anything less than $350 is a good deal. Heresies are excellent speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldbuckster Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 the heresy's will kick the snot out of the cerwin vega's over the long haul............The vega's are good with low wattage........not so good with high wattage......Recomended to a friend a few years ago ...............He fried 'em in two months.......never known anyone to fry Klipsch's speakers.............
