Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 Bluetooth Computer Speakers

I've had the original versions of Klipsch Pro-Media 2.1 speakers (non-BT). They hit hard and were great for listening to music. The fact I couldn't turn them off was a deal breaker for me and I ended up sending them back. It's 2022 and speakers don't have an on/off switch. Understanding these speakers have been around for years, but come on Klipsch. Also, not being able to have BT capabilities was simply unacceptable. With the addition of BT to the new(er) and improved Pro-Media 2.1 speakers, I decided to take the plunge one more time. Got the unit a couple days ago and set everything up. Beautiful looking bass and satellites which design hasn't changed in years. Plugged the sub in and... nothing. Zero power! Changed outlets and looked for an on/off switch but to no avail... DOA! I'm sure this unit was a lemon but it couldn't come at a worse time... for me. I returned the item to Wal-Mart who didn't question why the item was coming back. If you can get past the possibility of the unit being DOA, no turn off switch and BT issues lots of reviewers speak about, these might be the speakers for you. I mean that in a positive way. There's no doubt the speakers pack a punch... and for $50?!? Easily worth the money but the cons outweigh the pros for me so I'm looking elsewhere.

One of the screws snapped that connect to the subwoofer and I'm not getting any power to the speaker

Amazing sound quality, just tweak your EQ on your PC and these are comparable to soundbars ive used that were over $300-500, i got them for $50 on sale and wow, at $50 its practically free, its worth it even for $100, very good highs, mids, and the woofer is great and bangs!

I absolutely love this clips 2.1 3 HX that will be certified system with a subwoofer to satellite speakers. This is at least the third or fourth set that I’ve had connected to different computers … in my office in the living room, or to the laptop in my bedroom. The systems are incredibly robust, while delivering the most exquisite exact replication of sound… At any volume. There is never any extraneous noise, hiss or static… The sound is incredible, typical supreme Klipsch quality. Not only that, but the Bluetooth works impeccably… No matter what device you’re trying to connect with, it immediately connects with a solid signal. The sound is impeccable, the connection is solid; I’ve never had a negative experience and I will continue to buy this - and other Klipsch systems - as long as they’re there and I’m alive.

Okay I was a disbeliever in audiophile terms especially sound stage, where you have two stereo speakers but you get illusion of an invisible central speaker. I got these speakers and just playing music using Bluetooth and there you have it illusion of a large soundbar extending from left speaker to right. I was still non-believer so I asked blindfolded my wife and asked me to point which speaker is producing the singer's voice. Low and behold she pointed to middle of two speakers! Amazing. Note the Bluetooth is insecure so you need to make sure to turn the volume down every night so none of notorious neighbors start playing music in middle of night.

Speakers reduced from about $ 100.00 to $ 55.00 Nice sound for the price. I can connected it to my cell phone and laptop by Bluetooth or mini plug. I can switch it between the laptop and cell phone easily. There is no off button. I have to unplug it at night. The right speaker has three separate cables coming from it. Speaker cable, mini plug, connection to the subwoofer (a d plug with multiple pins). I would prefer the mini plug to come from the subwoofer. I would prefer the connection to the subwoofer to the right speaker not be use. Instead a cable with a control on it. The right speaker has two mini plugs for output. That also can be on a separate cable coming from the subwoofer to your desk. Add an off switch on that control cable. Bare wire connection from speakers to subwoofer, does not use RCA connectors. Ordered on a Friday arrived on the following Tuesday, nice! Photon Capture by Photon Release ‎Tuesday, ‎July ‎19, ‎2022, ‏‎19:09:16 PM DSC_0189.JPG DSC_0195.JPG DSC_0198.JPG

Bought and returned two of these now, due to a buzzing noise that occurs whenever they're plugged in, regardless of volume. Consider getting Logitech Z623 or maybe Edifier 1820DBs instead.

I have purchased at least 6 of these in total. I have one on my boat. One in my office and I had one in my backyard. (Subwoofer blew and now clips) Just recently bought 2 more to have Alexa play throughout the house and one to replace the backyard. Pros: Sounds good with rich bass. Sounds almost like Bose. Can't find anything comparable for the price. Cons: Sub has blown on at least 2 of these over the past few years. Must use aux jack for Alexa. For Bluetooth all units show the same name and Alexa can't tell which one is actually in the same room.

I bought these speakers on sale but ended up returning them. I hope someone else out there can enjoy these more as an open box return. I was excited about the upgrade from my previous (now back to current) speakers in the sense of having a dedicated subwoofer and Bluetooth connection. BUT there was a consistent hiss when nothing was playing when using the regular headphone connection, even at lower volume, which I just could not stand. It disappeared when switching to BT connection, but then my CPU would really spike on work Teams calls (macOS), so that also did not work out. These may not be deal-breakers for you, but were for me. Btw, the headphone cable connection is fixed to the left speaker, and cannot be disconnected. That means I could not swap out the cable for a higher quality one with more shielding, for example.

I replaced and old set of 2.1 speakers that I was using, with these Klipsch ones, and the sound is fantastic! These are really a great set of speakers and I am switching between direct connect from my computer and bluetooth from my phone, and that's a nice added feature.
