Klipsch Heresy iv...Your experience.

I also was surprised when I first heard the IIIs...the detractors were all wrong as they're a very coherent and classy speaker. Nothing like 'em...small, tilted back, unobtrusive, and can light up my room driven only by 12wpc.

Hi all. New here this is my first post. I am mulling over very seriously the Heresy iv’s. I have heard some very good things about them. I would like to get the advice on any of you here who own them as to what the listener experience is with these speakers. I really want to pull the trigger on these speakers but here in Canada with taxes in they are close to 5K. I want them to be my last set ever. Right now I have a set of Proac Studio 118s. They are real nice But the Klipsch are calling me bad. Lol. I have a Rega Apollo cd player and a Nad M3 amp along with Van Den Hul inter connects and speaker cables. I have heard that the Heresy’s real make the music come to life with a terrific impact. Any input from Heresy iv owners would be greatly appreciated.



I have H3’s and just bought H4’s. The H4’s are much better in every way. I bought B stock H4’s in Walnut on Fleabay for $2,200 USD shipped. I’m driving them with a 2 watt 45 amplifier.

I would take your amp to a Heritage dealer and listen to the H4’s.

I've been considering pulling the trigger on the IV's and going back to SET. Will use my headphone amp as a preamp...a Pass HPA-1.

 Never even HEARD a pair of Heresy speakers, just know I want SET into a high efficiency speaker. 
Does anyone know if the IV doesn't dip too low in ohms?

My new IVs are arriving Saturday, and if they're not better than my IIIs I'm gonna be ANGRY...break-in will be allowed, but still...I'll personally contact every reviewer I can find if they're not a fabulous improvement...and I don't use an (a?) SET, it's a (an?) SEP...still, it's got the SE thing going on and drives my IIIs with gusto to spare, and who doesn't like a little spare gusto? Note that I will take them apart to look inside and see what the mid horn design looks like...anybody that's looked at a Heresy III mid horn's innards has to be amazed at how weird it is...the titanium driver blows into a plastic pointy thing that pokes into the horn chamber with maybe four little holes in it...very strange...frightening, but it works.

I'm curious to hear your feedback about the Heresy IV vs the Heresy III.

I have never heard the Heresy III, but I'm still blown away by my pair of Heresy IV.

My setup : Bluesound Node 2i --> Denafrips Ares II --> Exposure 3010S2 --> Heresy IV / SVS SB-3000
