I just got a pair of Skylan 18" stands for my Heresey's. Good stands made of composite material and they can be mass loaded. The first thing I notice with the sound is that the Heresey's lost all their bass. The imaging is good but without a sub they sound overly bright. Heresey's tend to be light on low bass anyway and they seem to sound more balanced on the stock slant risers. I may have to put them back on the floor unless anyone has any ideas.
Klipsch Heresy - Recommendations for stands
Hello,
I just bought a pair of Klipsch Heresy speakers from the 70s on a whim for my pool room. Got them home and I can't believe how good they sound. I am running them on an old Luxman R-1050 receiver and I'm simply blown away!!!! I don't remember stereos sounding this good in the 70's! Maybe it's because the music was mainly the Bee Gees, Kenny Rodgers, Olivia Newton John, and Barry Manillo on 8 track. God I'm glad those days are behind me!
Anywaay, I have had Dali (still have MS5s), Audio Physic, KEF Reference, Acoustic Zen, etc... and none of them offer the sound for the money that these speakers do. Unfortunately, the drawback for these speakers is their shape. I put them on some nice "normal" steel stands and they look like 2 square balloons floating in space. They sound fantastic but the WAF is very low. Any suggestions on a good looking stands?
Thanks for your help.
