My v2-400 speaker set sounded awesome but the sub died little after a year of the purchase. I sent them off and they are being repaired as we speak, at least I hope they are since their techs have not answered a lot of my emails. I must admit the speakers sound great but I question the quality of the amp. If you decide to purchase a pair try to buy an extented warrenty. Good luck with your decision.

Yes, i have tried two different sound cards which both have worked fine. I even tried hooking my friends logitech speakers and they work fine with my system,diffinately the subs are blown. The second set actually fried one night when i came home from work. The sub was so hot to the touch that i thought i was going to burn my hand. After that incident the speaker system never worked again. I am thankful that my house didn't catch on fire. I would like klipsch to explain how this sub just blew up. Here are my variables: 1) the speakers/sub are connected to a battery backup surge protector which indicates no broken surge AND NORMAL FUNCTIONING WATTAGE/AMP FLOW. 2) i keep my volume level at 1/5 the max, the sub level at 1/5 the max, and the surround sound all the way at it's lowest setting. I just don't understand it? Two pairs in two years with many people having similiar problems with the amp of the sub system....hmmmm THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE DON'T BUY KLIPSCH IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GAMBLE YOUR MONEY!!!! SECOND, THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS EXTREMELY RUDE, APETHETIC, AND AFTER EMAILING THEIR TECH SUPPORT TWICE I DID NOT EVEN GET A REPLY. I COULD GO ON AND ON, THE FACT IS THEIR SUPPORT AND PRODUCTS ARE UNPREDICTABLE AND UNRELIABLE.

Hmmm, your right BigBusa, according to the press i shouldn't be having any trouble with either set. Confident after reading the press letter I tried both 4.1 klipsch sets and guess what? Still hiss!!! My brother is having the same problem with his out in California. Thankfully he works for Maximum PC and is going to write a special article addressing these issues about the klipsch promedia.

This is the second pair of promedia 4.1 speakers that I have purschased and then suddenly die 2 months after my warrenty ends. I now have 2 sets that just play hiss/static....thanks klipsch. I guess now I have the option to pay $100 to get them fixed. Lets count that up...$300 for the first pair, another $300 for the second pair and yep another $100 for repairs. Pretty darn expensive. For all you new customers, think twice about buying promedia. I'll give it up to them, they sound awesome but your are playing russian roulette with a loaded gun when it comes to how long they will survive! Not to mention their customer service is very apethetic.
