I am in the speaker business and have been for 30 years. I have overseen sales and marketing while delivering literally millions of loudspeakers to consumers around the world. I only say this to let you know I am very picky about sound quality.
Since I don't produce anything for computer sound I went on the hunt for something I could at least tolerate for the system in my home office. It should be noted there is a lot of junk out there at every price point. As I demoed every unit at the local Best Buy I was shocked at how much better the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 was compared to the competition. More bass, more overall sound pressure, just more than any computer speakers anywhere near the price point.
I did have a problem with the system. The amplifier went bad after a couple of months. However, the customer service at Klipsch was incredible. They sent me a shipping label for the unit and swapped it out with no cost to me and in a very quick turnaround.
Couldn't recommend this product enough.
