Maybe my experience is different than the majority. I have not purchased a product that has had as many issues as this. First issue I had was when plugging my i phone into the music port on the control pod to listen to music, i heard a loud pop followed by a humming noise and smoke from the subwoofer, really???amplifier was taken out by static electricity. Klipsch was good at sending a replacement. Ok, cannot really judge a product if one issue arises. But, then the second issue. One speaker is louder and more clear than the other. Now I am starting to regret the purchase. Plug the speaker in one at a time, in either the left or right speaker connection at the amplifier and it is always lower and muddy than the other speaker, regardless of source, or if it is connected to a computer of tv. A speaker issue most likely related to problem 1. System is far from abused, used occasionally, at lower volumes but volume is not what created my issue in the first place.There are some design flaws, and is kind of expensive for what you get. Lesson learned, computer speakers regardless of who puts it out are made to a price point and will always be some compromise in either sound or reliability.
