Too bad this doesn't work for the ProMedia 2.1 control pods. Our pots/VRs are mounted upside-down in comparison to yours (so the slit/notch is against the PCB, i.e. impossible to get to). See attached picture.
Klipsch needs to re-engineer their CPs entirely with more reliable hardware / less dust-prone pots. Possibly insulating the CP a little would help keep dust amounts low, and/or removing the rubber knob ends and replacing them with something more robust (how about coating them with something so the rubber doesn't wear down over time?). I think simply insulating the CP would suffice.
We'll never see this happen though. And too bad, since their GMX series completely blows goats (love that idle hiss -- same problem the Logitech Z-680s have, which Logitech came out with a fix for (replacing the control pod!)). Such is life though. Klipsch makes such great speakers, and the PMs sound so incredible. Ahh well...
