Alright!!! Finally got the screws out. Thanks for the tip! WOOO! Much better. I can finally bring the rear right closer to me, and get it away from the electrical interference... *does happy jig*

Hmm... that could work. Thanks for the tip.

yah, but the problem is the unscrewing in the first place. Damn but these things are in tight. No amount of reasonable force is budging them, and any more force starts will damage the screw. *grumble grumble* It's really peeving me now...might take it to a shop. Hopefully they won't destroy my speakers.

I recently got the floor stands for my 4.1s (I got them in Canada, while I was on holiday - I live in Australia). So...how the devil do you get the existing table stands off the satellites??? They were attached out of the box and are screwed in so damned tight! I've pretty much reamed one already (using an electric screwdriver) and it hasn't budged...

justin_tx - thanks for putting up the pics. I'll try that with the sat...I didn't think of that. I've also done a bit of recabling to get them away from the power cables and such. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks

Here are the three pics I took. One is of the wires running along my wall next to power cables. The next is of the back of the PC and subbie (my nice mess of wires). The last is of the power board where the rear speaker wires run. None of these look like they'd particularly affect the speaker wires... <img src="http://www.chincdzine.com/personal/wires_1.jpg"> <img src="http://www.chincdzine.com/personal/wires_2.jpg"> <img src="http://www.chincdzine.com/personal/wires_3.jpg"> hmmm...I guess if people want to see them they'll have to copy-paste. Sorry...I'm not sure how to get it working on these Boards...

Good point. I hadn't thought of that... Aaaaand...no, it doesn't move to the other speakers... I will try and take a couple of digi pics this weekend and post them so people can see the setup.

Hello all had my 4.1s for a while now, and recently, there's been a fair amount of noise coming from the rear speakers. I've fiddled with the cables to make sure they're okay and not twisted etc. I've also gone through the checklist - the soundcard (Audigy 2) is on the lowest PCI slot away from anything else, the speakers are nowhere near anything that can cause electrical interference (that sort of thing), everything is clean, all unneeded inputs are switched off/muted. It's only the rear speakers. Anything else it could be? Could the wires be subject to corruption? (they run along beside some power wiring) Any ideas are more than welcome.

dang! Another Aussie fan here, looking to get a set. The only way seems to be to go the 4.2 route (2 2.1 sets) but that's what, about $1200?!?!? You're kidding. When the Klipsch site has them for US$299 (currently on sale), that's a max of AUD$600, say about AUD$700 including delivery. Where the hell is that margin going? If Altecs, Bose, and even the Klipsch cinema stuff etc can get sent into Australia, why not the Promedia? The reason I want Klipsch is their quality and insane power compared to other sets. Those reviews are amazing, but I can tell you people at Klipsch that you are definitely losing customers unless you find a way to serve the Australian market! It's ridiculous business ethics to ignore a potentially lucrative market just because the initial outlay is expensive. The scarcity of dealers and owners of Klipsch in Australia just makes you look ridiculous - unless you lose some money in the initial outlay to promote and expand into Australia! Good promotion will ensure that there is demand. Klipsch speakers can kick the PC stuff that's on the Australian market now, IF you can market it correctly. You won't do that with excuses that the intial delivery cost is too much, because then there's no point in moving any units in the Australian market. Don't just touch the water, jump in! Be prepared for an initial loss until the units start selling, then it becomes profitable and worthwhile.

hey all I just wanted to know which is a more satisfying (as in sound quality, immersion) set - the 4.1 or the 4.2, which comprises 2 of the 2.1 sets. thanks

ouch! hey DoomsDay, who is this dealer? I've been trying to find someone who deals in promedias for a while now, and can't find anyone...(and Klipsch haven't answered my dang emails)
