Klipsch Forte IIIs vs. Heresy III with a sub

I have Forte IIIs but wifey thinks they are too big for our living room / 2 channel listening room.  Considering swapping for Heresy IIIs and adding a sub.  I like to get the really low frequency in stuff like Sylvan Esso but also want the sound of Klipsch for classic rock and jazz.

Three questions:

Will the Heresy IIIs sound as good as the Forte IIIs do now if I add the sub?
Will I be able to cross the sub over to match well with the Heresy's bass range?
Will a Sunfire 8" XTEQ sub work well with the Heresy IIIs?

thanks...

Wolf,
The drivers in the Forte III and Heresy seem to be similar, at least I think. Would the wider spacing of the drivers along with the larger front baffle of the Forte be some of the cause of the lack of coherency you hear between the two? I'm just curious...
