klipsch heresy, please be critical

what do you guys honestly think about the klipsch heresys for all types of music, although i mostly listen to rock, jazz, and classical. I personally like them, they do sound very different than other speakers in its price range, but not necessarily better. Is it considered "audiophile?" What are its positive and negative characteristics? Can i do better for the money, if so what other speakers. Please be critical, this is a big investment for me.
