shortbus1 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Are the subs the same in both the 2.1 and the 4.1 besides the number of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNRabbit Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Huh?!? The .1 in the X.1 is the number of subs. For 5.2 you would have 2 subs....clear as mud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortbus1 Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 i worded this wrong. What i was asking was would a 2.1 sub work in a 4.1 sub? i blew the surround out of one of mine and all i can find on ebay are subs out of a 2.1 system. My amp and the other sub are good but wasn't sure about the actual driver specs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister_Clean Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 yes, the 2.1 subwoofer if removed will work inside of the 4.1 systems enclosure, it is a very basic easy swap. but I do believe they are the same exact subwoofer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister_Clean Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I just looked, and none for sale right now. I have a bad v.2-400 system if you want maybe I can take the subs out of that one and sell them to you, how much are you willing to spend? the subs themselves are perfectly fine, the amplifier circuitry is no good, well some of it is good, but it does not turn on.

dawaro Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Do you have any interest in selling the amp from this system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister_Clean Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I will sell the whole subwoofer unit, It isn't doing me any good here and I don't feel like sending it out for repair. make me an offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those should be perfectly fine then for what you need. now that I think about it, maybe i should just part mine out. thanks for the idea, lol.

shortbus1 Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 Has any body ever had a surrond replace? I found a place here in sac that will do it for $25 a sub. was just wondering if it was worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortbus1 Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 I have put these back in the garage sale again. just don't have the time to mess with them right now. $150 OBO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD1032 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 All right well first of all, this has got to be the easiest project ever. Get replacement woofers (just search the word "Klipsch" on ebay and scroll away), take the grills off, take the back off, and put the new ones in. It's like 6-8 screws, max and two wires. Don't be afraid to just crack the thing open... you really can't break anything unless you try hard. Secondly, you are not going to want to give up that 4.1 sub, because the 2.1 sub is inferior. It has only one woofer rather than two, and its internal volume is smaller. The overall result is less bass, and bass that does not go as low. The 4.1 sub with some foam inside it is really not a bad multimedia subwoofer. The 2.1's is more limited. When I gave my dad my 4.1's upon going to college, he said "I can't use these, where am I going to put the back ones?". I said, "hook it up as a 2.1, it'll still be better than your PM2.1's by a longshot". Definitely true, my friend. The bass is much, much better on the 4.1's. Thirdly, $150 OBO for a broken pair of PM4.1's? You must be absolutely insane. I've seen ones in like new condition on ebay and craigslist for under $80. Just my honest suggestions.

hushdrops Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 the eBay link above in this post (http://cgi.ebay.com/KLIPSCH-PROMEDIA-THX-ONE-6-BASS-SPEAKER-SUB_W0QQitemZ350039469535QQcmdZViewItem?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116 ) it's for a 6" Promedia sub(s) - but they are all 6.5" subs right? I'd like to purchase from above but if they have the wrong size listed - how can you trust that they are new / correct / genuine and in good condition replacements. anyone have another source for Promedia 4.1 / 2.1 replacement sub-woofer speaker(s)? anyone know how much Klipsch charges for replacements? i haven't heard back from them yet via email. i need TWO to replace both woofers in my (original version) 4.1 Promedia BASH setup (the foam in both woofers has disintegrated) thanks for any info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
