hi all, my first post here and im really interested in listening to the Heresy III for a possible purchase. the dilemma is no retail shops in my area carry the Heresy III's, which is Los Angeles. hard to believe, but does anyone have any suggestions as to how to have a listen. a huge thanks.

Klipsch's dealer support for the Heritage line of speakers is absolutely terrible.  Very few of their dealers are even listed as "Heritage" dealers, and of those, most are only able to order them for you... and even fewer would have a pair to listen to.  Like you I'm in a large metro area, Dallas/Fort Worth, and no one even carries the Heritage line.  Though I believe one (StarPower) can order them. 

Your best best is probably to post in the 2-Channel forum and ask if anyone with Heresy III's (who is local to you) would be nice enough to let you come over for a listen.  There are a lot of people on here who would do that.  I'd also call Klipsch and complain, but it probably won't do any good.  However, if they started getting bad feedback everytime someone is interested in buying/listening to new Heritage, they might eventually take notice.

thanks for the advice. i'll try the 2-channel forum. i actually came in contact with a klipsch rep and he put in a strong effort to contact all of LA retail to find nothing in stock for the heritage line. he sent his apologies and that was that.
