Klipsch Heresy IV vs Omega CAM

I’ve heard Heresy 3’s in a small space and up close. When I walked in I thought in no way would they sound good but they were awesome. Completely disappeared and engaging. The fact they are tilted up probably helped and they had some impressive electronics feeding them. So think the Klipsch are doable. Haven’t heard the Omegas you mentioned

Thanks for all your thoughts and insight. I’m gonna throw another high sensitivity option in that I’m considering: the Zu Omen II. How do they compare for low level listening/apartment situations? General thoughts on them vs the Omegas? I’ve read mixed things regarding whether or not the Zus are forgiving in terms of placement etc. Any further insight on them is appreciated.

Additional info I didn't mention regarding the room: Despite the listening position being 7-8' from the speakers, the room itself is actually a bit larger at around 11'x18' with very high ceilings (I'd guess >15') and with openings to adjacent rooms.

Louis does make a front ported Super 3i monitor, known as the Super 3i+. It’s been shown and offered on his Facebook page, a few months back. Slightly larger volume of speaker box versus the regular Super 3i, with a front port.

I’ve been mulling this one over, as I really enjoy my Super 8 HO monitors, listening from 7 feet, low to moderate volume, driven by a First Watt J2.
I do like Klipsch, and I’ve heard all the newer "IV" versions of the Heresy, Forte, and Cornwall. I have not heard Zu as yet, but they are on my list.

I have owned several pairs of high-efficiency horn speakers, including Klipsch Heresey IIs and IIIs as well as Omega 6 Alnicos. Both are very good but they are very, very different speakers. This is another example of you can't (ok, shouldn't) pick without hearing both. Room, placement, music selection, how loud you play and source are all considerations for any HE speaker.

I will also make a shout out for a couple of other speakers in this genre: Coherent speakers, made in Canada, are also great and also different.

And right now I'm using a pair of JBL L200 T3 speakers, which are a home version of the 4425 studio monitors. These are simply the best $800 speakers I have ever owned - 2-way using a 2" CD horn and a 12" woofer. Way more bass than the heresy. Taller cabinet but approx. the same footprint. I have driven them with tube and SS amplification, all good. Highly recommended, if you can find a pair

Own a pair of the Heresy 4s, they are boxed up in a closet. 7 feet apart is fine but don’t put them against the wall they will sound awful. Three feet away from the wall and put an acoustic panel behind them to prevent smearing, put on some classic rock and enjoy. Make sure you toe them in.
