Klipsch Heresy iv...Your experience.


Hi all. New here this is my first post. I am mulling over very seriously the Heresy iv's. I have heard some very good things about them. I would like to get the advice on any of you here who own them as to what the listener experience is with these speakers. I really want to pull the trigger on these speakers but here in Canada with taxes in they are close to 5K. I want them to be my last set ever. Right now I have a set of Proac Studio 118s. They are real nice But the Klipsch are calling me bad. Lol. I have a Rega Apollo cd player and a Nad M3 amp along with Van Den Hul inter connects and speaker cables. I have heard that the Heresy's real make the music come to life with a terrific impact. Any input from Heresy iv owners would be greatly appreciated.

I spent about 40 minutes at a local dealer auditioning the Heresy IV and enjoyed them a lot. They were running off an Anthem integrated amp.

Very lively dynamic sound. Very engaging, not fatiguing. Listened to a wide variety of music. Imaging and soundstage was also very good. What’s not to like? 

They do go deeper in the bass than prior versions and Probably work best with somewhat beefier amps accordingly than older Heresys.

"... not fatiguing."

A buddy of mine has the III and giddy about getting the IV. I've not heard it myself. Wondering if the difference is more than subtle.  I've heard the  new Tractrix® horn midrange and noting the Hersey IV has a titanium diaphragm high-frequency driver.  Former versions always sounded piercing to me.  

If you can share - Is it quite different from the former version of itself, across low, med, high freq?

I heard the IIIs at same dealer a while back. Very different demo but I will go out on a limb and say the IVs were a bit more refined. More like Forte III. I would chose the IVs over the IIIs though the IIIs would probably be better with most lower powered tube amps.
