Verified Purchase:Yes

This is the second time I purchased this exact speaker system. The first time purchasing, I was absolutely amazed with it and during the time I got it on sale. I am not an expert with sound systems, but I have gotten to know my share of speakers. I will let you know this thing can get loud and on top of that the bass will make your house into a club. I am in love with the bass quality and how it enriches the sound of my music, videos, and games. For the price, this is definitely a great speaker system to rely on for great sound.

Awesome Sound For The Money

These are a great set of speakers. This was purchased for sound in a dorm room. No problem getting the bass needed or the sound needed to make these enjoyable. Mostly used with iPod and/or iPad.

Good overall sound system

We like this sound system. We are using it on our TV. It would have been nice to have an on/off switch instead of having to unplug it whenever you choose not to use it.

First Promedia lasted 10 yrs, this set.. doubt it.

on August 28, 2015

Posted by: Gibhunter

from Maine

So 10 years ago (2005) I bought this Promedia set from Best Buy. It made it through 4 years of college, moving in and out of dorms and many apartments in the following 6 years. Only weakness on that set was how easily the woofer could be strained. It finally died last week so I figured I would buy another. Right away unboxing it there are differences everywhere and none seemed to be for the better. The fuse is gone, no more power switch on the back, and the subwoofer is a good 4ibs lighter. The whole back plate on it looks cheaper. The satellite speakers no longer have 3.5mm inputs but instead have the speaker wire built into them... cheap? yeah... So how does the sound compare? 10 years later it still pops when you plug a source in... 10 years later the subwoofer still strains easily. The sound quality is good at low levels - this is coming from someone who has a high end aftermarket car stereo setup and have Polk TSX550 for my primary home speaker setup (not super high end but really good). Klipsch has in my opinion always had bright highs (almost harsh) and good bass, vs. Polk Audio with a warmer tone overall and more midrange vs. Logitech with muddy highs and tons of midrange and mid bass. For the money I think it isn't bad, but 10 years later with no improvements, and several downgrades at this pricepoint isn't good. There are a lot of other equal or better options out there today. My only deciding factor was the subwoofer form factor I needed. I dont think it is fair for BBY to keep these old reviews when the product has had revisions like this.

Luv this system!

on September 20, 2015

Posted by: RedOmen

Verified Purchase:Yes

I was using a different, older 2.1 system with my new Smart HDTV when one of the satellite speakers gave way. Although the subwoofer on that system & the remaining satellite still work very well, I decided to upgrade to a whole new system. I had heard that this system was comparable to a Logitech Z2300 system that I also own & LUV to death, so I decided to give this system a try, and it sounds great! I can confidently say that you will not find a system with this kind of power in a 2.1 set-up for this price. It is the last of a disappearing breed of 2.1 systems, so I would not hesitate to grab it while you still can. Your other option would be to invest in a full-fledged entertainment system, which will definitely cost more that this.

If you like your bass to hit hard whenever it hits, this is the perfect system for you. The Logitech system I mentioned above is the only other 2.1 system that carries this kind of thumping bass and overall output power, and they do not appear to make that system anymore (outside of special order perhaps, as far as I can tell). I couldn't have asked for a better system to assimilate into my new entertainment set-up.

Bass is adjustable, and it mixes well with the sound from the satellites. The only drawback is that there are cords galore for this thing (at least in comparison to other 2.1 systems that I've owned). It could be worse I suppose, but they definitely could have streamlined the cording. Also, this system does not have a remote of any kind (corded or otherwise), so unless you can control it through whatever system you hook it up to (which is possible), you will have to manually adjust the volume & bass on the system yourself.

These speakers give clear full bodied sound at all volume levels and if you want to turn it up the bass will make the windows rattle. Great value for the price.
