The end of your list is the person you want to be! [] Well perhaps you will spend all your free time deciding what will be on the top of your queue!

Thought it be worth mentioning that the complete set of all 5 seasons of Gene Roddenberry ANDROMEDIA is currently being sold at Bestbuy for $99 (lists for $170)! This was a reasonably entertaining Science Fiction and this collection (released 10/3) comes on 50 separate DVD's not the double-sided DVD's that seasons 2 through 5 collections came on. The collection uses the thin sleve DVD holders that contain 2 disks each. Sure wish Star Trek or Dr. Who was this cheap!

Whoa! You are going to send your visa/mastercard info to the following: Ramka Ltd. Kiev Ukraine Think about it!

Examine all the capacitors and make sure one of them hasn't burst. Burst capacitors will leak electrolyte which you should be able to see easily.

Costco deal has been around a long time, amazing that there is still some stock at some stores. Even at $399 (list) the iFi is still untouchable in quality.

Site nows has no images, only text and is running much faster. So yes they are working on it currently.

Speaking of propagana . . . the redesigned web Klipsch web site still has the iFi displayed prominently in the Ipod Speakers section! Curious they still say on their specifications "Built from 2005" with no end date. Perhaps we might see the Spiderman 3 "Venon" version of the Klipsch iFi in the future. You never know! [] Note: Klipsch is currently selling factory refurbished iFi once again under Clearance area as well as several other computer speakers.

Very nice/modern web layout compared to previous site layout. The indivudual product page layout are much more professional in appearance. Some repeated URL requests are getting server error reponses currently, probably because the site is currently being edited. One thing Klipsch needs to do is update the hopeless out of date where to buy list of dealers....this is very incomplete and doesn't include most chain stores locally at all!

I'm also with JB. Now that we have this major security scare on the airlines, I was thinking bad timing Hollywood!

Since you mentioned humming. Usually caused by conductivity of 60 cycle from AC into amplifier. Check the AC connection your plugged into. I recall a previous user having a similar problem with faulty surge protector and pluging into a regular AC socket stopped the humm. Could also be defective cable going to one of the inputs (subwoofer or control pod).

I was expecting more action, was mildly disappointed. The concept of the movie was OK, and V had enough of a plot to hold my interest, but I thought the movie was a extremely abbrievated version of the comic book saga. From a comic book action movie standpoint this one is luke warm, I could see why the Wachowski Brothers hadn't released it earlier. Picture and Sound quality was excellent though. Good Explosions!

Great! The line input on the back of the sub-woofer is designed for a normal audio output from a PC or Mac. Distortion will be non-existent because of the low voltage level out. Usually you run into distortion problems on desktops from mediocre source material or you are using a third-party sound card that output level is set too high.

Oh that response begs a top ten list concerning the decision of discontinuing the iFi. 10: Cause its not using super small tweeters as midranges? 9: Oh its too big, it might not fit in my car to take home. 8: Its not battery operated! 7: Its not white or now black like the ipod! 6: Apple brainwashed me into thinking the Hi-Fi is superior 5: Why is the remote battery dead? 4: Its too good a system for a measly iPod! 3: The subwoofer is just enormous! 2: What ever happened to the super remote? 1: Its not bose........

Oh that response begs a top ten list concerning the decision of discontinuing the iFi. 10: Cause its not using super small tweeters as midranges? 9: Oh its too big, it might not fit in my car to take home.

I remember quite a few store visitors when viewing the Klipsch iFi for the first time thought the speakers were too big because they were typically placed near a series of ultra compact iPod speakers that all had woofers the size of tweeters. Sorta reminds you of the movie "Elf". The iPod speaker market has produced some rather odd small speaker systems.

How true. But also what was observed in Apple, CircuitCity, Sharper Image were poor product exhibits of Klipsch multimedia systems, and ill informed staff as far as multimedia knowledege which is not helpful at all to slightly confused potential buyers. Additionally numerous times I observed Apple Store staff hawking Bose Companion 3's over GMX or iFi. Of course now they try to hawk their own HI-FI. [8-|]

Hmmmm....I wasn't aware that high quality recording was not applicable to Rock and R&B. Jazz , and Blues usually don't have over-powering bass, so high's would be more apparient. Folks this is no different then the typical user who utilizes the loudness function on his stereo to accent bass and treble. If it sounds right for you, then it is right for you!

Well going by history it will probably take Klipsch Multimedia group a long time before they realize their competition is eating them up. Going by release dates for major product groups represented on forums. ProMedia 5.1 (Ultra) Sept. 2003, Promedia Ultra 2.0 July 2005, Promedia 4.1 Feb 2002, Promedia 2.1 Nov 2002, GMX series 2003, Klipsch iFi June 2005, Klipsch iGroove Sept 2005. So only recent personal speaker systems from last year are Promedia Ultra 2.0, Klipsch iFi, then Klipsch iGroove. While the Ultra 2.0 are probably selling well, I was disappointed by comments that iFi (which garnered awards from HI-FI magazines) was being discontinued so soon. Then we have the iGroove which has seen very low activity in forums...so it can't be selling that great either. Now if the iGroove is pretty expensive, and has heavy competion, so what went wrong with Klipsch marketing machine for the Klipsch iFi? It certainly sold well when the price was lowered slightly. ($399 was a bit steep don't you think?) While heavily discounted iFi's didn't remain on shelves very long at all.

Sometime in 2006 is all that known. Sergeant York is a another Gary Cooper DVD I am patiently waiting for. My best guess is that we will see a Gary Cooper Collection that includes both of these titles.

I would pick the Altec Lansing FX6021 over the bose companion 3 or sound sticks. Gee its really pathetic to recommend a non-Klipsch speaker system. Market pricing and competitive factors? I thought Klipsch was better then that!

For right now a froogle scan shows that there are a lot of mail order dealers that were carring iFi system and still have some in stock. Hence buy them quick.

Well if it is due to slow sales, then its because of pig-headed marketing types at Klipsch that refused to acknowledge that the Klipsch iFi could be used as a superb computer speaker system (note no 1/8 mini-stereo cable included)! I remember a lot of early questions about this and going into Apple stores and getting ignorant looks from sales staff about using the Klipsch iFi with a computer! Most iPod owners tend to look at small (very portable) speaker systems which the Klipsch iFi was huge compared to. So IMHO Klipsch may have constrained their market appeal by over doing the "made for iPod" appeal of this product. Darn shame as this is one of the best "designed" personal speaker products in a the last few years!

Well the Klipsch site says they are unavailable, but then there is a lot of iFi speaker system in distribution channel still? (buy them quick [] ) Perhaps Klipsch has a new iFi replacement product for future unannounced large video iPod from Apple and had to redo the control pod so the Klipsch iFi is end of life. I'm still amazed that they haven't replaced the Promedia 2.1 THX yet (too hot to touch heat sink), or the "too much hiss" GMX series. Maybe we got a whole new series of personal speaker systems coming guys!

Exactly. The same with the small speaker array in the FX6021 also. (many others) Some manufacturer's think they are really hip using very small speakers for frequency ranges they weren't designed for. The iPod craze has really generated a lot of crap speaker systems in my humble opinion.
