    Can you tell me about these speakers? Klipsch Heresy's

    I have a pair of speakers I received from my parents that I don't know much about.  The only things I know about them are provided in the following pictures:

    Model:

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Serial #1:

     

     Serial #2:

     

     Label:

     

     Set w/ original wire:

     

    They work fine and are in great condition, they are just simply too big for me too keep. The only information I have been able to find is related to Heresy II or III speakers, and I'm assuming based on the label that is not what these are.  If someone could provide me with some information on the specifications of these speakers and how much they might be worth I would greatly appreciate it. 

     Hopefully I've put this in the correct forum, if not please direct me to the right place.

     Those look like Heresy Birch Raw made in 1982. Replace the caps & find a place for them is my suggestion...but $300-$350.

     oldbuckster - yes those are them, I wanted to find out a little about them before I got rid of them so I knew how to price them fairly :)

     

    Bill H. - hah, I do like the speakers quite a bit, unfortunately the large size is a problem.  Not to mention I'm more of a headphone guy anyways Embarrassed.  Hopefully they'll go to somebody who can actually put them to a better use than I can.

    zoink ... shame you couldn't keep them, a new set of crossovers, or least the caps done, and they would be like new.Great speakers the Heresy's, but you know what's best for you .... Good Luck !!!

    Now THAT is attaching some proper bass extension to those Heresy's!.  I once put some Heresy's on top of my bass bins (dialed them in with the Dx & crossed at 80) and wow!!!  sounded fabulous with authority.  could only imagine yours (drooling)  Yes

    Professor Thump told me to take a Custom 3 and stick it in my ear. I did...and it sounded great!!!

     Next on "Pimp My Klipsch"  - Dtel pimps out his Heresy's with some extreme bass.

    Feel the bass in your head! Sticking 'em in my ears since November 2007! - bsam 2007 -
