Let me word this differently. I had NO intention of bashing Anyone Bob,and Al are very good at what they do . I may be new to this Klipsch forum ,but not to knowing Xover parts very well since late 90s. My point was. The parts used in my build are Superior to Sonicaps .if you bypass with their Teflon that makes them much better . They donot want to spend the $$ though.This speaker now you would never know it was the same speaker .the resolution and refinement Is Dramatically improved. I have owned several Klipsch speakers as well as speakers over the $10k range . All these magazines and $$ big dollar speakers way over priced and a Klipsch speaker when modified can do several things as good or better then many big dollar speaker. I just wanted to see how much better my build would take me . I am content for at least for this year. Enjoy your music !!

I replied in another post about rebuilding the stock crossover withTop superior quality capacitors,and resistors, And AVM vibration treatment which is night and day better then even what most builders sell as far as Parts quality , Nothing more.i challenge no one on expertise. One thing you can do for little money and instant improvement sweet water sound sells these $89 each delivered. The IsoAcoustics R430 stands they are used a lot of pro audio the sit on the floor just put posts in front ,tilt all the way back just gave the front 2 inches out from the front of the stand..even under the subwoofer . They tighten up focus and articulation. A very economical way to improve the Heresy speaker ,and or sub.p.s take the riser off to couple to the stands.

I spent the better part of two weeks taking this impossible double boarded Xover ,extending it and filing it with premium parts. was it worth it .it destroyes any crites Xover and far better parts then APL . as long as you are using a powered sub . I crossover around 80hz with Rythmic servo subs . The detail and articulation now beat the snot out of many Speakers in many areas . Bass is solid down to mid 40s in room. One key is what many pros studios are now using Iso Acoustic stands -platforms .get rid of the risers put these underneath and full tiltback the Iso R430 i have under speakers and subs 9 capacitors and 4 resistors all resistors are Mills 12 w ,1%, and a 50watt 1%. on tweeter a .47 Clarity ESA capwith Mundorf Silver oil .33 in parrallel, next in order a Mundorf Supreme 1.5, then another 1.5 Supreme to the upper mids handed over to the Mid a 3.0 clarity MR capacitor All metal foils. then a 1% tolerance Dayton 5 uff MPK then on other end a 4uf Dayton , to a 16uf Clarity ESA for Bass then 2-15uf -Aeon and a 16uf . I had to add a 1 inch spacer between board decks , and a 3.5 inch screw and lightly drill out the posts then i added AVM vibration treatment to all exposed resistor leggs and solder joints and drivers ,magnets. I have several caps under the top board and 1 under the bottom board . I could not possibly fit more if I tried . All Klipsch Heritage caps are MYLAR 5% 250v . On Munforfs 1,000v ,and Clarity MR 400v was the smallest offered all others are 250v I did not get to take the final pictures forgot but you can see most of build what a ***** ,I also added my own accusastuff ,parts express and black hole cabinet treatment much much better without having to totally reinforce the cabinet only $650 after discounts . it sounds Great. 100 hours will get better to 200 in my experience .

My uncle works in pro audio and he said these patented stands are great,and they are check out ISO Acoustics the Big R430 stands are perfect they has special vibration absorption only 6 inches tall and can tilt. Watch the videos on Utube gor a demo. I have regular High quality tubular stands filled with sand. Not even close. Even Skylan stands for this application near the floor or on a counter none better. The glare is gone more detail as well as focus. One gem of an Amplifier look for a Temple Audio Bantam one for roughly $850 U.S dollars including shipping. A hand built amplifier Dual mono 16 Mosfets 40 wpc all wood front panel great rf remote ,even a wifi app blue tooth Analogdevises sounds like a refined Vacuum tube amp .it even has a pre out for a sub And very high quality passive preamp all ladder resistors,snd relay controlled.all hand built in the U.K. It is better then my brothers Bryson 4b, every bit as good as my Pass labs first watt and with a very high quality preamplifier section ,two amplifiers in one case. fantastic with Klipsch loudspeakers smooth and detailed !!

Another thing that works well is a treatment call AVM -anti vibration magic. Look it up several very good reviews. I put this on of all resistors, and capacitors in amplifier ,Dave cd including loudspeakers and on glass in fuses. Xover and on magnets throat of speakers it is cumulative it removes vibrations everything sounds a bit more settled and focused. Just give a couple hours to dry good. Non toxic ,and non conductive even a dab on top of vacuum tubes and a ring around them It is a damper with a rubber like com pound. Don't knock it until you have added in your audio equipment.

I have found the IsoAcoustics R430 stands which are 17w x9 d to be perfect .this patented technologies my uncle turned me on to working with monitors in pro audio. Go to tube and look them up.for a demonstration .only 6 inches high The speaker and stand work together in a sence rather then the hard vibration of a big stand these Alsohave adjustable tilt before and after on stand vs the floor is quite noticeable I am on wall to wall carpet And hardwood both benefit delivered under $180 Sweetwater .com musicians go there all the time.

I am trying to find out how to get in to the Xover and how to remove the Xover to get Parts value. If anyone can help me I most certainly would appreciate it . I am in Central ,Ma. P.s if anyone has a parts schematic for the Heresy three It would be Greatly appreciated thank you,Paul. Audioman58@gmail.com
