Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?

Cessaro Zeta's are between 320,000euros and 460,000euros a pair.
Whilst they probably sound excellent, that is a lottery win amount of money. With ancillaries we are probably close to the $1m dollar range......
They do look lovely though.

In the late 70's I sold high end audio and sold quite a few pairs of all the now "classic" Klipsch models, they weren't my "cup of tea", but those who bought them from me seemed to enjoy their purchases, as evidenced by how not a single purchaser approached me about a return.

I never thought much about Klipsch stuff although I was aware it was around seemingly forever, and I did like some little KG2s I heard in a shop years ago...but that's pretty much it...I only got curious when I bought a little tube amp that begged for speaker efficiency, and having relatively high standards demanding coherence and clarity (from audio gear anyway) I was really surprised by how good the Heresys sound. Amazingly good, even relative to ultra high end stuff I've heard here and there. 

i've owned many speakers (PSB Synchrony Ones, Martin Logan Spires, PBN Montana EPS 2s, Revel F208, Sonus Faber Liutos
and some high quality amplification, Simaudio i7). My friend has a pair of Heresy IIs in his apartment driven by a low priced Denon integrated. I've always been pleased and amazed with the sound of his Heresy setup, even at low volumes. They have a fantastic soundstage. Many times, sounds emanate far outside the speaker. Never felt they were harsh, just very lifelike. Admittedly, have not heard them at high volume in deference to his condo neighbors. Overall, was very impressed by such a modest priced speaker. Report this

Klipsch is lo-fi these days. The old man made some good stuff once upon a time.
