Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?

I also had 901's back in the day.  Hang em in the air with macrame and burn incense!, and other stuff.
I learned thru trial and error.  I have a pair of Heresy 3s and Cornwall 3s (amongst others) these days. Heresy is bedroom and I rotate the Cornwalls in the main room occasionally.  Looking forward to building a Cornscala for fun in the future.

gawdbless, I heard the latest Forte speakers, and thought they were awful muddy. I heard a vintage pair of corner horns that were nice. The audiophiles that I know wouldn't own any of the current Klipsch line-up. But YMMV.


 

Interesting that he is saying " if you like female vocal, like Diana Krall, or other female vocals like her, I can see using this speaker ".

That statement, along with the fact he's a CV fan, just proves he hasn't much experience with really good speakers. The Heresys are respectable with vocals at their price point, but they're far less refined in that regard than a good British monitor, even after damping the horns. 

I have had several older Klipsch as well as their latest Heresy
the titanium drivers are very decent , the connectors ,wiring and Xover
suck bad cheap junk no name parts .

So now Clarity Caps are "cheap junk no name" parts? Funny.

A review of the heresy III's from a reviewer that I have bought products on his recommendation/s with no ill affects. Basically I have trusted him since the 90's.

I own a pair of H-IIIs (and four pairs of pricier speakers) and I mostly agree with his assessments.

For low-volume, late-night listening, the H-IIIs with a 20 watt tube amp are hard to beat. 

Any speaker at the $2K price point has strengths and considerable weaknesses. What the H-IIIs lack in bass extension they more than make up for with bass speed and definition. What they lack in refinement they make up for with a lively and dynamic sound.
