I opened the back unit (8 screws along edge) and replaced the fuses and the problem is still there.

Thank you. I read in a thread somewhere on these forums that someone had a similar problem and it wound up being a bad internal amp inside the subwoofer. I will open the subwoofer and check the fuse. Would the internal fuses be the same part / type as the external one that is on the back side (that you can turn with a coin)? I really have had bad luck with Klipsch products in the past 8 years or so I have gone through one 5.1 system and two 2.1 units. Their customer service and friendliness is great, but they need to have some ape-geeks come in and actually hard test the products. If the internal fuses look ok then it is probably the internal amp of subwoofer and if that is the case I am going to get the highly rated Logitech Z 2300 system and never touch a Klipsch product ever again.

Thank you. I switched the speaker wire and mini plugs from the backs of speaker w/ Pod (L) and the right one speaker ®, The left one with Pod didn't work, but the right one did, so that eliminated a wire and speaker cause/problem. I also removed the wires from the subwoofer connectors and swapped them to also test the wire and connectors.

Could it be a bad fuse in the subwoofer or would it then not emit sound at all? How do you tell if the fuse is bad? The sound is muffled from subwoofer but is on and is active. But only one speaker will work at a time. Thank you.

I wanted to see if the control Pod was the culprit so used a new one that Klipsch sent me; the pins look fine on both. I will save the other one as a back up Pod. I don't believe it is the Pod that is the problem nor the plug that goes into the subwoofer as the pins look mint and tight.

Both speakers "work" as I have switched the speaker wire and hear sound from both when I move balance control to one; the other of course then does not emit sound. (I also had another spare speaker and tried that too and speakers all "work"). The Pod on 1st speaker is new replacement from Klipsch that I put on last night. I just bought a new sound card today and still have the same problem where one speaker does not emit sound. Since the Pod is new the connector pin to subwoofer is in mint condition. I thought the sound card would have fixed the problem, but I still hear sound only from 1 speaker. Speaker wire seems ok. The mini jack plug seems ok. The sound drivers are all new as they were downloaded today as I installed the new sound card. I am using Windows XP SP3. The balance is all the way right to try and test right speaker; I only hear muffled sound from the Subwoofer. So: 1. Speakers work 2. Pod is new 3. Sound card is new Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hello. The pre amp connector for my 4.1 Klipsch ProMedia black speaker box thing is bad (the one that goes from the large box to the computer). The rabbit ate the cord.... I went to Best Buy about 2 weeks ago and purchased a 2.1 system thinking I could just use the connector from that into the 4.1 box but the size is different. Can you please tell me the part number and/or how to buy a replacement pre amp connector for the 4.1 ProMedia series to replace the bad one? Thank you. luthy
