Klipsch Heresy in JC cabinets

[satorusun]

Anyone know what company J.C. is?

Speakers have Klipsch drivers, not sure of year these are.

I've never seen that on the 8 pair I've owned. Could that be initials of a previous owner?
Is there a serial number on the cabs or label?

Owner says these are how he bought them. Not his or previous owners initials. Mentioned it was a cabinet makers company, but no idea what company. I couldnt narrow anything down.

AI says: "Klipsch Heresy cabinets marked "JC" likely indicate they were handcrafted by a specific worker, possibly John C., in Hope, Arkansas, during assembly, a common practice for Klipsch Heritage series speakers known for grain-matched veneers and sequential serial numbers, suggesting a personal touch on these highly efficient, classic American-made speakers. "

I wonder if one of the few former employees on here will have some insight?
