.....if I might interject some comments concerning Klipsch speakers from the 70's, or what is considered now to be the "Heritage" line.....
.....in the 70's and 80's, I listened to corner horns, La Scalas, Bells, Cornwalls, and Heresys, extensively, often, from every angle to be had, and the one that impressed me the most, by far, was the smallest member, the Heresys....one friend had 4 Heresys, in stereo-surround 4-corner setup, with a couple of homemade subs with 15's front-firing from the front corners "tastefully", and the rich sound quality to me, was nothing less than, "excellent"....second, imo, was the Cornwalls with their smaller horns not being as taxing on my head toward headaches as the larger models....the larger, hair-parting horns of the larger models impressed me for a short season, but with the strong concussion of the large powerful horn midrange drivers on metal bells, I learned to take headache medicine and ear plugs along for listening sessions in friends' homes....also, the folded-horn low end of the larger models was not for me, at all, with the bass tone control anything more than flat, being "whompy", with non-defined muddy almost non-existant oscillations from the bassline....and flat tone controls pushing the folded-horn low end, with no help from a sub or subs, was simply not enough low end, imo....I came to the decision that front-firing homemade subs, applied tastefully, to the larger model Klipsch speakers of the 70's with folded-horn low end, with the tone controls pretty much flat, was the only way to go having the folded-horn low end....to go for such a system today, with the sub choices available now, would probably be a decent system, but would still bring me headaches beyond the Heresy and Cornwalls at reference levels, considering the large and powerful midrange horns that part hair.....
