Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?


His passionate hatred for Heresy's and other Klipsch speakers made me laugh.

Well, with any Heresy speaker, you can still get bass punch at 60db. That's not the case with most speakers.
I use harbeth Compact7 which I find easy to listen to for music and movies, dynamics are ultimately limited and bass is sort of 'woody' but I find them pleasant for moderately loud listening and not planning on moving them on, however I'm interested in listening to the heresy III as an additional set of speakers to use when I want to listen to something more forward, louder and dynamic when the mood suits, I like the idea of having two sets of speakers with very different sound signatures. It is interesting that some say they still give dynamics at lower dB levels.
Gawdbless, that's an outstanding review on the H3s from Hi-Fi+ you had a link to. It gives me a lot of ammunition before pulling the trigger on a pair for my tube amp. While my room is medium to large, the seating distance of only 6-10' away may be the main hinderance according to the reviewer.
I have a medium-large room and my ears are maybe 8 feet of so from my slightly toed-in Heresy IIIs...perfect...and the sound level thing always seems funny to me as I don't know anyone serious about hifi that puts speakers in a really large room and sits 50 feet away...except myself when mixing live stuff. Before soundcheck I'll sit in a middle seat in a venue, put something on the system in stereo, and listen for my own amusement (the show's live sound is really dual mono so everybody in the room hears pretty much the same thing). Nothing quite like a multi thousand watt powered 18" subwoofered stereo in a 500 seat concert venue!
Thanks for your experiences w/ H3 at 8' distance.

BTW, how are your ears from mixing large arenas, and what type of music?
