klipsch just sent me my third pod in a very long ownership time. wow, this pod sounds great. the controls are a hard plastic and not the soft rubbery ones as before. i state that only to describe which pod i got. i could be just the nobs have changed, (most likely). anyway's the system sounds better than ever.i'v tried all the other brands and for the price point there is no comparison. KLIPSCH ROCKS!
i would like to mention that the cleaning suggestions are a good first choice for someone who is not afraid to open the pod and get the spray where it needs to go. first air and then cleaner. try that or spend the 23 bucks.
