SPECIAL EDITION

This Heresy III special edition model is being offered in an ebony ﬁnish and salt

& pepper grille cloth. A co-branded Klipsch and Capitol Records logo will be

attached to each grille, and the back of each speaker will feature a special edition

plaque that will be hand-signed by the craftsmen

COMPACT, THREE-WAY LOUDSPEAKER

The Heresy was originally introduced in 1957 as a compact three-way design

utilizing a 12” woofer and horn-loaded midrange and tweeter. In 2006, the

Heresy III was upgraded with a more powerful woofer, bi-wire network, as well as

midrange and tweeter compression drivers, featuring a titanium diaphragm for

smooth and accurate deﬁnition.

BOOK-MATCHED WOOD VENEER

Klipsch only uses book-matched wood veneers for the Heritage series. The

veneer leaves are kept in order as they are delicately sliced from the timber and

precisely arranged to provide a mirror image at the splice joint – like turning

the pages of a book. This gives each speaker an aesthetically appealing and

consistent appearance that is treasured more than any other cut of wood veneer.

MATCHED PAIRS

Each pair of Heritage Series loudspeakers are grain-matched using wood veneer

panels that come from the same timber. Each cabinet is carefully matched so

that each speaker in the pair is practically indistinguishable from the other. The

speakers move seamlessly together through the factory. Each ﬁnished product is

inspected and labeled with sequential serial numbers, ensuring that the Heritage

series speakers leave the factory as a meticulously crafted set.
