Well, I went and heard a nicely set up pair of Klipschorns at Stereo Shoppe in Lansing, Michigan, today. They were, I believe, a 1986 model the store bought new and has used as a reference ever since. They were powered by a ss Rotel amp. I listened to some acoustic jazz I was familiar with. What's surprising is just how similar they sounded to my Heresy's with added open baffle subwoofers. The k-horns sounded bigger, of course, being much more efficient, but the family sound was very similar. It sounded like they would image better, also, but without comparing in the same room, I can't say for sure. At any rate, it showed my that my Heresy's aren't just poor cousins. I suspect the Heresy's get close to 90% of the quality of the big k-horn's, but at a much cheaper price. Still, If I could stumble on to a pair of Klipschorn's at the right price, I'd sure grab them up in a hurry. Dave
