I recently purchased a pair of the RF-52's and an RC-10 center channel.  These speakers replaced my Heresy II's as my primary speakers.  I have a realtively small room, 12 x 8, so I didn't go with the RC-52 center channel. The Heresy II's have served me well, and know I miss that total Klipsch sound.  On the other hand, the RF series seems to be the future of Klipsch. 

They are Reference series are efficient, accurate, detailed and smooth.  They seem to be the future of Klipsch. But,  they don't share the same sonic characteristic that makes Klipsch what it is.  By the way, I have kept the Heresy II's...they are only 22 years and I have replacement parts to keep them going until I die, although I have never needed one.

YUP ........ U R !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh the Heresy of it all....

You could atone by shipping me your Heresy II's. Heck, I'd even pay for shipping.

Repent, and be saved (from compressed sound). 

WWPWKD? 

I fully understand where you've been and are going with your setup................I just hope you continue to enjoy it , and stay with Klipsch.

I frequently ask myself the same acronym. I am keeping my Belles till death do us part. Three way Heritage all the way! Although i would love to have a pair of DEANG modded RF-7s in the house sometime. UUUGGGHHH...

and your gun

I returned the RC-10 for an RC-52...and I understand that there is a conversion kit to make the Heresy II's into III's, if so I will take one. 

Is there another speaker company besides of Klipsch ?

mfk,

 I guess that I am the total opposite of you.  I first purchased the RF-83 setup and since then have purchase '81 Heresy and just last week '71 Vertical Cornwalls.

Don't do that, what an awful idea, you better sell me those H2's cheap, I'll take them off your hands !!!!!!!!! Dark Hearthed Traitor .......

Y'all know, there is a thing called progress, not always good, but time moves forward.  As sure as the possesion of one Klipsch speaker will bring forth the desire for another one , everyone in this and every other thread knows this to be true.  Now that I have completed the R*-52 setup, I am thinking of the the R*-82 setup.  For 22 years I had only one pair of Heresy's (ok II's) and they were great. For 22+ years of Naval service, my favorite rifle was still the M-14.

The point is that progress can be either good or bad, but the in the Klipsch community, addiction to improvement is a universal constant.  Regardless of which series you pick, there is always that urge to improve.  It is this forward movement to improve which drives us.

WWPKD, frankly I don't care, but what he started is a company that continues a traditon of excellence, it to this principle that I try to adhere. 

"Badges..? We don't need no stinkin' badges" 

 Sorry...I bought the conversion kit to make the Heresy II's to Heresy III's, it is truly awesome.  The guts from my HII's are going into a pair of scaled down LaScala's and I'll be co promoting them with my Linux based digital media server.

There really is nothing quite like the Heritage series.   I guess I could not be the dark hearted traitor I thought I could be, but the GF does love the RF stuff in the living room, the horns are in my "man cave", along with a bunch of computers and an old Sony Wega. 

I think I still have a copy of Red Hat 6.1 in here.
