![Best Computer Speakers 2024 [Don't Buy Until You WATCH This!]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/yyOaUu1m86M/mqdefault.jpg)
I’ve owned these for over 20 years. Never turned them off always sounded beautiful with strong bass. Very clear as well. I really miss the 5.1 version of this however after going through 2 sets they always fail at the amp/ subwoofer unit. I bought the creative labs they sounded good. Not as good as the Klipsch Now everything is RGB but speakers are for sound. I resorted hooking up my old 2.1 back to a new gamer I just purchased.
I bought this system new in 2011. I was absolutely amazed and still think they can't be beat for the money. Also converted me to become a Klipsch fan. You can rock the house with these little guys!
i have these and z623 and i love them both. however the only reason i don't klipsch speakers for my 'ht' set up is because of the horns..... pain to my ears lol
This has been around for decades lol. Great product
I have owned these over 10 years and they still sound phenomenal
I'm surprised they're still selling these.. i bought a pair when i was like 17 and now i'm 39
definitely gets your feet in the sound world , im now looking into the Mcintosh markets .
There is a reason why they’re still selling to this day. They don’t bullshit on sound I’ve had mine since 2014 lol
I’m a couple years behind you, and still got my Logitech Z560 4.1 400 watt system from 2002. I haven’t used it in more than a decade as the control pod volume knob gave out. Miss the days when Logitech and Klipsch were duking it out over high end pc speakers.
That market doesn’t really exist anymore as everyone uses headphones or if they want, can easily piece together something great.
@@joshnc101 i had that system it was awesome. i sold that system and bought the z5500 which i kick myself everyday for not keeping
if it ain't broke don't fix it
I still use mine. I bought them with my first record player when I was in my 20s.
I still own the GMX A2.1 version. Just changed the pot on the volume yesterday. Still going strong. Love the subwoofer of this unit and the clarity of the two satellite speakers with tweeters. Bought mine when it was launched here back in 2006.
Had them for 2 years and still don't even give a thought about upgrading. one of the best investments I ever made. Also love plugging my Audio Technica record player to it, Immaculate sound.
you can tell this guy is not reviewing , he's advertising for the company to get free stuff, lol . i just couldnt take him seriously .
Have you ever heard Klipsch in real life? Also, before the first minute he gave a con 😂.
He's not lying, though. NOTHING comes close at its price range.
Facts. I still have mine after 9 years. Just really broken in. The highs and mids are not it's strong point but the bass my God. Lol. Movies rumble and listening to Rush Exit Stage left Neils YYZ solo....Good God. @@JLP627
Excellent for PC speakers. Also FANTASTIC for a deck, with left and right spread 10 ft. apart and 18"-20" off of the ground. (Just bring them indoors before the rain - they're not weather-resistant!).
wanted to see a video review since i know the brand klipsch and saw you mention the price tag i was like wtf $112 over here they're selling it for $450+
This is an ad more than a review. No mention of the negatives.
For those watching; I’d say these are a good value, but be ready for muddy bass and very limited dispersion (aka to get them to sound right they need to be pointed right at your ears). Also, QC is dodgy so a lot have hissing/humming.
i got my speakers for 70$ brand new and the few issues i had is that the rubber ring broke around the subwoofer connecting to the housing its was a 2$ repair the biggest issue is no power button
These speakers are fantastic. Had mine for 2 years so far and work flawless
I just purchased the Klipsch 2.1 computer speakers and I just built a new high-end gaming computer (Windows 11). When I plug in the green speaker to the back of my computer, there is a loud sound coming from the system and speakers, kind of like feedback. I have the volume on my computer down low and the volume on the speakers set to 50%. I have tried various sound settings and it still makes this noise. No, I only connect it once, but why would that noise come from plugging in the green wire? Thank you.
it happens to alot of things and isnt a big deal. Its basically just making a connection and thats the sound from it which even my headset makes. I wouldnt worry about it though.
I don’t use them much since Christmas 2021 when I got them from Amazon I love them they still sound great
Do theses speakers have different colors? that'll be pretty cool.
Hey man just wondering if I can connect my DVD player to this to watch films ?
my pair is about done for due to the attached wiring board where the speakers connect. I replaced this but still ocassionally will lose sound in one of the speakers. Its enough to finally consider getting rid of it for a new set. It sounds like I am going to buy the same pair unless someone can guide me to what the next "upgrade" over these are? PC Speaker market doesnt seem to have a thoughtful coherent scaling list.
A name you may not consider right off is LogiTech. I've had 2 sets similar to this 2.1 setup and they sound decent for a good price and have lasted forever.
@@jdbrigance I second this. Two sets of Promedia's lasted less than 4 years for me. The Logitech z623 I have had for 12 years and they are still flawless.
@@roybatty- ive been using the logitech z523 for a lil over 10 years now and i thought id upgrade to the z623 but man what a mistake that was.
In my experience, the z623 is way too extreme, in regular talk videos they sound like tin cans so you have to turn up the bass to get some fullness to the speakers voice but when there is music or a bassy moment in a video, the z623 seriously blast you in the face to the point where it's super extreme so you have to turn down the bass knob by a ton, but that means youre back to listening to a tin can again.
It's like there is no middle ground with these like there is with the z523, i have the bass knob at like 20% and it's just perfect but the z623 at 20% is nonexistent
Maybe my unit was defective though
Me trying to figure out if, on the promedia I literally just opened today, brand new, the bass is supposed to be near nonexistently quiet. Even with control panel setting speakers to 20% and subwoofer to 100%, listening to the "bass test" videos on youtube at a good volume for the speakers produces only the slightest noise on the subwoofer if you have your head next to it. Trying to figure out if it's supposed to be like this and what to do with it.
is there a wall mount for the speakers? i only found some cheap 3d printed ones.
On January 6, 2011, Audiovox purchased Klipsch Group Inc., and these are not the same quality as Klipsch. No off switch, these things never idle and energy consumption is ridiculous. The LED light can be seen by NASA satellites.
Did not know this. Thank you.
i just connected the sub to a surge protector. turn it on and off with my foot when i sit down at my desk.
@@4000marcdmanI heard the Amp dose not like that.
@@jcnz84 I don't know. I've had it for 3 years now.
these require a break-in period for the sub. The voice coil will get a little smelly otherwise
i have mine still they are amazing
Not bad sound but when I turn off my laptop and it shuts down there is a LOUD buzz that can only be rectified by unplugging the 3.5mm plug or turning the volume on the speaker to ZERO. Also NO bluetooth!!!
You can turn bluetooth on by pressing the main volume knob on my pair. I'm happy with mine, but they aren't perfect.
Which is the pc monitor coupled with the setup? I mean the brand of Monitor
These speakers are just super dope!!!
I had 2 of these and both stop working in about in under 2 years (sound was great) I bought a powered subwoofer and use the small speakers.
I I have wiring board where the speakers connects to
Bet you had volume from PC at 100%
@@JeffreyDahmersVictim-nh1mo no about 50%
I got a free brand new pair today so far they have been great OTHER THEN THE STUPID VGA CONNECTOR SCREW BREAKING OFF AS SOON AS I CONNECTED EVERY THING
Good buying advice for the market this speaker system is designed for... students, gamers, or just average, entry-level folks who want to see what their computer system can do. Great listening for all kinds of music, and cheap... which means more people can get it and love gaming or listening to your tunes at home... and start learning to appreciate good audio. Best system around for under $200, for sure!
These are awesome speakers I have these
best boom for the buck speakers for sure.
Yes still sounds great in 2023
My sub lasted 2 years before crapping out. Not sure these are really worth it anymore.
Make sure you didnt get a knock off real sub weighs 16lbs fake ones around 11. Also make sure to break it in
My sub died after about 2 years, why I'm now watching videos now on what to get.
This system is very powerful
Omg watching a lot of these videos left me with much higher expectations. The bass doesn't impress me. I have a really old falling apart Harmon kardon 395. It's so old I just set my tab on 100% and play music. I got this new speaker and it's suggested that I don't put the input volume at 100% . I don't know exactly where the recommended 70% is but I tried putting the volume line at between half and full. The old Harmon kardon sounds lounder. The Harmon kardon has a 18watt 5inch sub and this has a 50watt 6.5in sub. It's new and I don't wanna set input volume at 100% because the manufacturer doesn't recommend that
Are these speakers better than the Bose Companion 5? 🤔
up to your ears....
@@caliginousmoira8565 I mean frequency response. Which one has better frequency response? You know what, I should get a cheap Denon receiver and a cheap pair of klipsch tower speakers and stop asking these questions lol
This or the Bose Companion 3
its priced around $400 here where we cant buy logitech z623/z625
Ive had my set for about 9 years. The weakness is the volume and tone pots. They will acratch after awhile. But easy fix is electro spray. Deep bass. Great for movies. I leave mine all the way down on tone knob unless movies. The bass is insane for the size. The price is giving these away.
what tone knob? the bass adjust knob? i just keep mine where it's marked. placement seems to be the key to this sub. my logitech's sub can be put pretty much anywhere it seems.
mine just died after 2.5 years, it sounds nice, but cannot turn it off, no bluetooth. i want more tech and specs. I will not buy from this brand again. keep looking
I had 2 of these, both died within 4 years. Subwoofer tore both times and they have horrible static build up at the volume control. Got a Logitech z623 an it has been flawless for going on 12 years. Sounds better too.
So you had your input volume at over 70% a lot of the times
these are $350-400 in EU :(
You didn't even mention these are BT as well.
What do you expect from a guy that calls the satellite speakers "tweeters".... @2:18
Dude, tweeters are the small high frequency (think cymbals) only drivers located at the top of the small satellite cabinets. The satellites also host a midrange/mid-bass driver which handles the majority of the voice and instrument frequencies. You should be referring to the satellites where you're saying tweeters. If you're going to do a video as though you know something about sound, please get the terminology right... the video is otherwise fine, but every time you say tweeters I just cringe. Sorry for winging lol...
logo look to be old model ?
there are many fakes out there of Klipsch speakers, one i noted is the weight of the sub, the older Klipsch system should be around 16#'s, the fakes i have seen are about 10#'s.
No mention of any cons? How about the fact there's no power button. Klipsch expects you to leave these speakers on 24/7. Ask yourself if a quality set of speakers would have a dumb design like that. The subwoofer is loud but also muddy. There's almost no mid-range. And the highs can be a bit harsh. If you do decide to unplug the speakers you may get a loud pop sound from the subwoofer. Repeatedly doing this can eventually cause the sub to fail.
The build quality feels cheap imo. Then they put a blinding LED on there to let you know when your speakers are on when you're expected to leave your speakers on all the time anyway. Brilliant!
Beware... cheap guts... These units are paperweights after 2 years. Lots of websites on how easy/hard it is to repair these
They crackle
