GodRa Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) I've owned my set of Promedia 5.1 Ultra's for almost 10 years and only had one problem with the amp once. Now after so many years of great music my subwoofer isn't making bass and there's a strange electrical smell when I turn them on. The bass turns on and off and now my center speaker doesn't sound. My question could it be a fuse or is it the amp that's finally given out? Any recommendations or advice would be very much appreciated.

mustang guy Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) Easy. You gotta get ahold of the promedia ultra guru: He sells on Ebay. He will fix you up and make it so you don't ever have another breakdown! http://www.ebay.com/gds/Klipsch-ProMedia-Ultra-THX-5-1-Computer-Speakers-/10000000010358270/g.html Here is one of the kits he sold within the last month: http://www.ebay.com/itm/COOLING-FAN-FULL-29-part-UPGRADE-KIT-Klipsch-ProMedia-5-1-THX-Ultra-amplifier-/331446927382?nma=true&si=LknqvZBNG9Xvp7uOAwQkwDs0%252FhY%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Edited January 29, 2015 by mustang guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustang guy Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) Do yourself a favor and actually read the links. Most importantly the second link. It pertains to you. PS: I call him a guru. He is not an actual guru. I can't believe I actually had to say that.

Any recommendations or advice would be very much appreciated. sounds like you may have fried the amplifier or the power supply - the components can be replaced -electrical smell can also entail that a part has shorted - it is better to unplug it and avoid using it as this can cause a fire - better be safe - Edited January 29, 2015 by Randyh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
