1/ ABOUT

The Klipsch Heresy II is one of the most respected loudspeaker models in the legendary Klipsch Heritage Series. Introduced in 1985 as the successor to the original Heresy, the Heresy II retained the highly efficient horn-loaded design that made the original famous while incorporating updated drivers and improved horn technology for enhanced overall performance.

Designed by the company founded by Paul W. Klipsch, the Heresy II delivers the lively, dynamic, and highly engaging sound that has made Klipsch one of the most recognized names in American high-fidelity audio. Featuring a powerful 12-inch woofer combined with horn-loaded midrange and tweeter drivers, the Heresy II reproduces music with exceptional realism, strong vocal presence, and impressive dynamic impact.

Its high sensitivity allows it to perform exceptionally well with both low-powered tube amplifiers and vintage solid-state receivers. Whether used for jazz, rock, blues, acoustic recordings, or modern digital sources, the Heresy II delivers a highly enjoyable listening experience with the effortless dynamics that Klipsch Heritage speakers are known for.
