  1. I used these speakers for several years (Casually as Well), along the way they would work, then not work, work, and even if I plugged them in now they might work and as soon as they sit idle they'll quit, lets sat extremely sporadic. I no longer bother setting up PC for decent sound, I use a USB Yamaha speaker mounted on the wall behind the PC, if I want music or to watch a movie I head to the Family Room where the speakers and sub still work and they are over 7-8 years old. 1. I WOULD NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER SET. 2. I will never own another Klipshit Product again, they failed their customers and offered no support for what can only be deemed a shitty product that had been poorly designed. 3. I don't like to pay someone for a service where I have no recourse to get my money back if something goes arry, I'll pass on Elliott. If someone wants to make me a offer I would gladly sell my Klipshit set I have, they are painted a beautiful Automotive Black from VooDoo PC (The Sats) Includes all the wires, another control box (I thought it might have been the Problem), and they look like new, that's because they were hardly used, POS.
  2. Truthfully the ProMedia setup was part a a Voodoo PC Purchase and in fact after the amp turded I bought a simple Yamaha bar style speaker that I mounted to the wall behind my montitors, I really don't use the PC for music and I actually prefer the sound low when I play games, so that is more than sufficent speaker for my use. I have had many home systems to date, my current system is Mcintosh Pre/Pro and a Mac 7 Channel Amp, a Pioneer Elite 50 Inch Plasma 720P (Almost time to upgrade but Pioneer is no longer a Option) maybe a Panasonic 3D Plasma, Oppo's new 3D player and their original Up Scaling Unit (both SACD), a Denon Blu-Ray Player (Disappointing for the Money, the Oppo's are a better deal), and Sonus Faber Speakers in Piano Black along with a very potent Siganture Series Sunfire Sub. I also have retired in the same closet with the Kilipshit, a Sunfire Pro/Pro and the matching 7 Channel Amp along with assorted other stuff, so electronics are a passtime and speakers I do not need, lololololol. If you are pleased with your Klipsch that is all that matter's, I am not and I can not attach any numbers to how many systems failed and how many folks ***** and moan to hear themselves ***** and moan, but on the flip side this blog alone attest to a serious product failure and then the folks who established small business's to repair said product failures would lead me to believe there were fairly siginficant numbers involved. Perhaps I will disassemble the setup and do my own repair, lol, new amp new processor and into my 5th wheel with the system, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....
  3. LOL, No intent to insult your audio/video setup, as I see you have Klipsch speakers but had it been that I went on this site and saw a few random failures and a few folks bitching and moaning about a purchase that failed I would agree with you. But, Klipsch built the products and put their name on the end result and apparently sold a crap load of these systems and may I add they were not inexpesive and then a massive fall out occurs and luckly for them these weren't cars, car seats, and any number of other items or they would have been required by law to re-call them and for all we know if the failures could have caused fire or property damage a recall could have been intiated!!! So, in this case I stand by my comment and feel that one bad product may not make a company a bad but how they handled the problem makes them very questionable at the least, so NO I WILL NEVER BUY KLIPSCH PRODUCTS AGAIN, how do you say POOR customer service deserves nothing less than no customers at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PS, want to buy some more KLIPSHIT, I have a really nice set of Black Painted Pro-Media speakers and a Non-Functioning Sub/AMP
  4. LOLOL, I have not been back here in some time, I recieve blips about the goings on with this guy Elliot and to be honest my Pro-Media system sits in a closet collecting dust, I have fired it up on a few occasions and it would work and then promtly shut down, as one previous poster stated you can polish shit forever and in the end it's still shit. I think Klipsch should have stepped up and done the right thing and fixed what appears to be a faulty product especially relevent to the number of failures, shit if this was any other number of products with a small fraction of the failures would have prompted a product re-call!!!!! I for one will NEVER purchase another Klipsch product again and why any of you would bother is beyond me, the Pro-Media speaker set was hardly cheap for the product type and for a company like Klipsch to ignore it's failings hardly justifies any continued consumer support on my end for sure. The nice thing about the Internet is you can literally reach out and touch someone and if enough folks do just that you can touch Klipsch where it will hurt the most, $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Best of luck with your repairs if anyone has interest I will gladly sell you my set up, they came as part of a PC setup from VooDoo PC since purchased by HP then promptly assimilatted into HP's mainstream crap they build. But anyways, they are painted a nice Black to match the PC which I still own and have occasionally upgraded only to keep pace with today's technology not because a particular part failed "cough"!!!!

  5. Hey All, I have a set of 5.1 Promedia's, they were pruchased either 04-05 can't remember when as part of a VooDoo PC system, seems HP did them in, lol. After about 5 years they tanked, I am somewhat at odds as sometimes they work, sometimes they click and have lots of static from the sats and if I play with the volume I can make them work, sometimes??? I am a wanna be Audiophile and enjoy decent sound, the Promedia's really do for a PC what decent home Audio does for a Surround Sound System. Whats baffling is the fact the this system failed at all, it does not see tons of use, nor do I crank the volume till the thing clips, it was a desk top system for a High End PC, painted to match, I think thats the real bummer, I have upgraded the PC and actually rather fond of this PC. I am considering popping the system open and checking things out, proably get electricuted, but, then there's the Lawsuit, man dies after looking at the equipment that is known to fail and the manufacturer did nodda about it, sweet, to bad I'l be dead, lmao. Later Moe
