Klipch is one of those timeless companies, having rarely turning out a bad product and between the Heritage line and the more modern RF and Palladium series they still reign supreme. Klipsch and Bob Crites after market support is better than amazing. I have a pair of Cornwall II's, I like the Forte II's better. The price point gave consumers the option of a full range speaker at a price lower than the Cornwall. The new RF replacement is really no match in the midrange area, these were real horns designed by the master himself.īrand new, the Forte II's were around $1,100, today you can get a pair for somewhere between $600 and $1,000, depending on condition and finish. This was not out of inadequacy or wear of the originals, but because I want these speakers to live for a long time. Sure, since 1995 I have swapped out the tweeter diaphragms with Crites Titanium and the squawker diaphragms the new Crites diaphragms. The Forte II's are efficient, open sounding with sparking highs, midrange unparalleled and enough bass to provide that visceral feeling to really add dimensionality to music and movies. My Forte II's, in conjunction with a Quartet center channel provide a sound stage not likely to be rivaled by many in the RF series. Okay, I am a Klipsch bigot when it comes to heritage series, nothing comes close. ![]()
