No no no If it is when you set something or alter ANYTHING with the computer to cause the problem... it is the computers fault. If what you put into the speaker is good line level, than what you put out will be good, hence that when you hook up the cd player to the promedia's with the adapter, you will be getting surround sound and if it sounds good, then the problem is your computer. the pro's don't know the difference in your Fader, only your soundcard/computer does. this happened before, i remember, and it was something wrong with the computer because he brought the speakers to his friends house and everything played A-OK. what kind of computer do you have?

gabriel11 Posted June 9, 2002 Author Share Posted June 9, 2002 quote: Originally posted by gabriel11: Well I tried the adapter trick.....They sound AWFUL Now that I've tried the adapter test and found the same distortion (or worse...buzz too) I can assume that it's the speakers. I posted Leeb's reply because he too was an Audigy owner and had a similar problem...his cleared up with the removal of one of the speaker jacks...mine does not, it stays distorted whether I unplug a sat or not. Now when the speakers are plugged in as front only or rear only the distortion is not present...It's a 4 speaker together thing.

justin_tx_16 Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 ok, so now we have confirmed that is it not the computer (which is a relief in a sense $$$) but a similar problem as leeb. have you contacted Amy? call or email her asap. that info is in my signature. ------------------ -justin SoundWise Support A technical help site created by me and my fellow Klipschers I am an amateur, if it is professional; ProMedia help you want email Amy or call her @ 1-888-554-5665 or for an RA# 800-554-7724 ext 5 Klipsch Home Audio help you want, email support@klipsch.com or call @ 1-800-KLIPSCH RA# Fax Number=317-860-9140 / Parts Department Fax Number=317-860-9150s> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabriel11 Posted June 10, 2002 Author Share Posted June 10, 2002 I bought them from newegg.com in December. I will get ahold of Amy and see what it is she thinks I should do from here. I am assuming that Klipsch will want to do the exchange and that they will not recommend that I return anything to newegg. It would certainly be easier to return the sub only, or would I have to return the whole set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would do that anyways, i have heard that their turn around is very quick. ------------------ -justin SoundWise Support A technical help site created by me and my fellow Klipschers I am an amateur, if it is professional; ProMedia help you want email Amy or call her @ 1-888-554-5665 or for an RA# 800-554-7724 ext 5 Klipsch Home Audio help you want, email support@klipsch.com or call @ 1-800-KLIPSCH RA# Fax Number=317-860-9140 / Parts Department Fax Number=317-860-9150s> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabriel11 Posted June 10, 2002 Author Share Posted June 10, 2002 Newegg.com was in the process of becoming and Autorized Klipsch dealer when I purchased from them...Klipsch may actually accept that since they were considering making them a dealer anyway...I'll wait to see what Amy says.
