YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BigToque]

I'll take one

 

[pay]

I wonder how much they're going to cost

 

[jaredm77]

I found em' for 399.00 on outpost.com, I'm getting them as soon as they come out!!!

 

[crazyjoekuta]

What's up with the separate control module? And Hot Damn $400 is a lot of money!

 

[Pabster]

I can't believe ANYONE would spend ~$400 for a set of PC speakers. For that kinda money, you could set yourself up a decent system for an entire area, not just a PC. Besides that, I've found Klipsch lacking in the quality arena, but that's just IMHO. (Based on experience with v2.400 only)

<< And Hot Damn $400 is a lot of money! >>



it seems the amp is driving the cost up b/c you can get equivalent set of 5 speakers w/ better drivers plus a 200W powered 12&quot; sub for under 200 bucks.

I agree with pab, i can't even beleive i spent 250 on these classic klipsch PM back when they came out now i could careless about them. Next time i upgrade my speakers i'm going the real way out, get a DD receiver and some top performamce for 400 dollars that really sound good.

 

[venk]

Problem is, for $400 you can get much of a home theater system

 

[Maverick]

I dunno if that one extra center channel is really worth the extra 100 bucks.

 

[randomlinh]

not worth it IMO. i gave up my klipsch's (mainly fro money tho, but looking back, i shouldn't have got it), made a canadian very happy

 

[MrHelpful]

Come on! You can get a sweet 8.2 system (2 Boston Acoustics BA4800) for less than that. Clearer, and you have a better sense of depth (not much more, though).

 

[nnnyyy]

Nice but too expensive! These are for real PC audiophiles!

 

[whitelight]

i won't be able to afford this gem.

 

[MagusG]

Can someone spot me $5000?

 

[Andy22]

I am sure the BA's are good but I consider my Klipsch 4.1's to be one of the best purchases I have ever made for my computer. I love the sound with both games and MP3's and of course the bass levels are amazing.

 

[Thyme]

From what i've heard they lack control though. My dad bitches at me to turn my bass down all the thyme on my DTT2500 system.

 

[Andy22]

Well if you're referring to the Klipsch, they have a subwoofer volume control knob right in the front of the control pod.

 

[Madcowz]

OMG, for $400 they could have at least included a hardware DD 5.1 or DTS decoder! They totally cheaped out on that... I wouldn't expect awesome dolby digital material coming out of these new 5.1's. Software is no where near the quality of true hardware decoding &amp; I don't believe it ever will be anytime soon. Besides, if I were to shell out 400 clams for speakers I would go the extra mile and spend a little more to get some REAL home theatre speakers that will be light years ahead in terms of quality.

 

[MasterHoss]

Yes, I have to admit--as much as I love my ProMedias, I think $400 for PC speakers is a bit much--especially considering you're getting only a 5.1 setup without some kind of hardware digital decoder. But hell, I spend $600 for my speaker system and love it.

I'm sure they'll sound even better than the 4.1s so I can't wait to hear them.

 

[Aihyah]

woah, anyone notice they upgraded the subwoofer? 2 8&quot; side firing woofeers.. jeez.!!

 

[danii8]

Wow
Unless there is really good deal, I will pass this one.
