User Submitted Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 THX Certified Computer Speaker System (Black) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2009-01-07 Pro Klipsch! Just want to offer my feedback on this speaker system which I've owned for over five years now. In short, the Klipsch PM 2.1 speaker set still sounds as good today as it did when I first pulled them out of the box back in '03. It has shown itself to be very reliable also, since I have had no amp issues at all as noted by a couple of other reviewers - perhaps because I have no need to really crank up the volume beyond a comfortable level (my study room is a bit on the smaller side). Hooking up the system to the computer is fairly straightforward - the assorted cables are easily identified because of the different end connectors on them. You do want to be careful with the DIN plug that goes into the back of the sub though, but once properly inserted you should have no need to touch it again. I listen to practically all genres of music - vocal, instrumental, pop, jazz, classical, etc - and find that this system is very enjoyable to listen to and doesn't tire you out. The Klipsch PM 2.1 set also does well when watching the occasional DVD, though it probably gives up some impact if compared to a 5.1 system. In day-to-day usage, I have found that elevating the two-way satellites off the desktop a few inches gives the mid frequencies a little more presence. The sub, which I have sitting on a short step stool under the desk, provides quite a bit of punch, although it does tend to become a little muddy if you turn the bass volume switch too far past the factory recommended setting. There is also just a bit of boominess around the 100-120Hz frequencies, but is easily modified/corrected by using the computer's EQ (Apple/Mac's iTunes software is extremely helpful in this regard). These minor quibbles will not be a concern if you mostly use these speakers for gaming or movie special effects. In summary, I have been more than satisfied with these speakers. Understanding that sound quality is so subjective in nature, I can in no way guarantee that the Klipsch PM 2.1 is the absolute best speaker set for your money, but I can confidently say that you could do a lot worse. Hope this review has been helpful to you. Peace. Date: 2008-12-31 Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 a great buy. Excellent sounding speakers at a descent price. I would say the sound quality is comparable to bose at a fraction of the price. Bass and highs both have excellent sound. Date: 2008-12-17 Just too darn loud Crystal clear sound, great for hooking up to tv for a great movie experience. So small yet packs a punch The wires to the sattilite speakers are kind of cheesey so be careful not to be rough with them, otherwise, Rock on!!! Date: 2008-11-20 Great sound, BUT...................... I've owned these for almost 2 years now and I agree with everyone's gushing comments on the great sound and especially the deep thumping bass. But these speakers are definitely flawed. Look at the reliability issues of these Klipsch spkrs on the web. My subwoofer stopped working and I had like a day or two before the warranty expired. They repaired them and I still enjoy them immensely, but be aware of this obvious shortcoming. Oh yeah, don't throw out the shipping boxes. Date: 2008-11-13 Klipsch is Outstanding! I bought these to replace my Digital Boston Acoustics that died after 8 years of use. I wanted something comparable to them. This system beat them hands down. You cannot go wrong on this system. The sound is tremdous and more then enough bass from the Sub to tick the neighbors off.
