Heresy

I own a pair of ca 1975 first generation Heresy's. Before you make any pronouncements regarding their sound, make sure all of the drivers are actually working. In the set I bought, one of the tweeter diaphragms required replacement and there were intermittent, loose connections on the crossover screw terminals which made different drivers pop on and off.

I've used my Heresys with many different amps and finally settled on using them with an SET 2A3 home brew amp. Volume is decent but not for rocking at full volume. It's fine for listening to jazz and vocals which is mostly what I use this system for. Not much bass from Heresy's so you can forget about pipe organ or orchestral music with these, They are an apartment dweller's delight.
