Less expensive alternatives to Klipsch Heritage Cornwall IV?


Hi,

I'm no audiophile, listening to mainly rock/symphonic metal and classical. 

Recently listened to some Frozen Crown and Dragonforce on a friend's Klipsch Heritage Cornwall IV. Of course it was amazing. But, I don't know what I don't know. I'm looking for a set of speakers that have similar (may not be as "good") characteristics as my friend's, and don't cost $7500. My room is about 20' x 15', amp is an old Pioneer Elite. Any directions as to where to search for that set of speakers are much appreciated. 

I did a Google query, and the following names came up: Klipsch Heresy IV, Klipsch Forte IV, Polk Audio R700.

 

Thank you,

I'm more amazed that posters on this thread have 23k and 13k posts- they must post multiple times a day, every day for a decade to achieve that.

People like to talk.  Rarely about the original question.  But they like to talk.

Heresy's are great speakers, if not everyone's cup of tea. If you want a cheap alternative I would suggest looking for a pair of Klipsch KG-4s. I bought a pair for one of my daughters to use in her college apt. and ended up using them myself for a second system in my office. I actually like them better then the Heresy but that's just me. I haven't paired them with a Fisher but I did play them through a restored Scott integrated and a Marantz 2235b. Sounded great.
