The following comment is mostly rhetorical and possibly mildly comedic in nature, and not worthy of reply, thus saving the reader from having to think about it much if at all:
What is the number of people happily modding Heresy IIIs? I need to know...If there are "cheap caps" and "bad horns" (put there by corrupt Klipsch technicians caving to the Cheap Cap and Bad Horn lobby) in my almost stock (mid horns damped with dampy stuff, which may have improved something...can't remember) Heresy IIIs it's possibly a miracle they manage to sound as excellent as they do. Modded Heresy IIIs ("updated" pre 2006 versions excepted for the purpose of this post), although discussed on forums like this one, are certainly a tiny fraction of the numbers sold to people "happily" enjoying them (but are they really happy?). It's also worth noting that reviewers who report positively about Heresy IIIs haven't modded their review samples. I haven't heard new Klipschorns as I don't care about them...too big, and I got that sort of thing out of my system with the A7s I owned years ago...but I have heard new Heresy, Forte, and Cornballs that sound great in stock form.
