the torque on the volume knob would be enormus! :

for a dvd player i would think he would want the ability to play dvd's

i have the same problem and i think my monitor has been permanantly damaged because of it.

being a nuclear engineer myself and after reading the long version of that article (15 pages of crap) i can assure you guys that it was utter bs. total fiction.

ok now i am really really pissed. i bought my v2.400s in december for $250 and a cp-1 for $60. i am pissed off that: 1) 4.1s with better midrange came out just a few weeks after i bought mine 2) 5.1s just came out now which i would really like 3) you just got the speakers i bought for $100 less maybe i can sell mine on ebay and buy 5.1s

how did you get the v2.400's for $150? GRRR!!!!

reow

are you trying to just split the inputs together so the front and rear speakers sound the same, or are you trying to actually connect both pairs of speakers to the same channel in the amp? i don't think the latter would work, because the speakers probably aren't designed to take 130 watts (maybe peak, but not RMS). even if it did work, the sound would be really imbalanced because the midrange and treble would be a lot louder then the bass.

i already have the multi channel version. also, i just noticed my front speakers aren't working at all now! i tried changing the control panel for digital 4.1, 4 speaker, front/rear, nothing works. i think preamp is broken!

hi, i just got a turtle beach santa cruz, and i don't think 4 speaker surround sound is working in windvd 2.4. it sounds like the back channels are the same as the front ones. i'm currently using the 4-speaker mode in the control panel (not digital 4.1 or 5.1). anyone know how to fix this? btw, using win2k

damn you klipsch! cheated me again! I bought the v2.400's in december. when they announced the 4.1's, I was like "DOOH! " So I went out and bought the CP-1 just so I would feel better. Now that you announce the 5.1's just 5 months later, I'm like "DOOOOOOOoH : " Why can't you be a good little corporation and announce upcoming projects like everyone else??

found it on best buy's website. hehe

do you have a vortex2 soundcard? their drivers don't support 4 speaker mode in windows 2000 correctly .

if you are running win2000, you are out of luck. the drivers in win2000 don't support 4-speaker mode if you are running 98 however, you need to download the latest drivers from www.vortexofsound.com , and make sure you have the little control applet running in your tray. there is an option there to set 4-speaker mode and a little button to test the balance and fade. i had a vortex 2, i loved the a3d 2.0 in half life, but after installing win2000, and finding out it didn't work at all, i went out and bought a turtle beach santa cruz for $80, and i'm very happy with it. edit: fixed link This message has been edited by CatKnight on 05-30-2001 at 02:24 PM

hmm just noticed that the buzz is gone since i moved home. maybe there was some sort of magnetic interference? i had the same problem with my bass guitar. in my room if i tried to turn the tone knob up at all it would just buzz really loudly, but it works fine everywhere else.
