Klipsch ProMedia 5.1 is probably one of the least reliable speaker setups currently on the market. I went through 3 sets in about 10 months (2 were amp failure, one was amp distortion) before demanding my money back from Klipsch. To their credit, they stepped up and did the right thing. But not without attempting to convince me that they had fixed all of the problems with that setup. Right. Six months later and my friend who also bought a set had his fail, too, with the exact same failure mode.
If anyone is considering this product, check out the user forums on the Klipsch website. Very eye opening...

I just went to post a link to the forum where everyone was bitching about their failed speakers and I find that Klipsch has finally admitted they have problems with this unit!!! About damn time...

It's really too bad because I loved the sound those little speakers put out. By far the best sounding system I ever owned. I have given up on the whole computer speaker setup and moved on to "real" speakers now, though. No complaints!
