klipsch speakers,be honest

They are good speakers like many others but different mainly more sensitive. Just feed and set them up right.

I've owned a lot of speakers over many decades, and I bought a pair of Heresy IIIs last year and and found that they're amazing sounding fat little speakers...who knew?...they need a sub, but so what? A bargain.

I recently bought KH AK5.
My first listening was in the early 80's and I was pretty impressed.
The AK5 are simply a revelation to me.
When properly setup, the music just becomes a miracle.
These are the best speakers I have ever heard so far. At any price.

Are you being honest? Heh heh...By the way, my Heresy IIIs cost just under 1500 bucks shipped (list for these Capitol Editions is 2500), and I already owned the subs. I put stick-on Dynamat damping material on the mid horn due to intense peer pressure (you know who you are!). It may have made them sound better, and it gave me a weird project cutting up this gooey stuff into exact fitting pieces...little horn braces on the things with small curved surfaces...fiddly but hey...it improved my Klipsch tweak credibility by exactly 8.3%.

People have talked about putting mutes in the mid horn. I doubt that’s is better than a better crossover or improving the bass driver so that it is a longer throw driver.I get similar bass with my 1950s JBLs they are both short throw. In their day that was SOTA now it is wanting. If you want to maintain the sound that these things have you have to change your expectations. Also remember orchestral and classical music which was more dominant at that time, which made different demands on speakers.
