Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
The Klipsch ProMedia GMX D-5.1 computer speaker system is designed primarily for use with game consoles such as Microsoft Xbox, Nintendo Gamecube, and Sony PlayStation 2, but it can also be used to deliver excellent, home theater sound from your PC or stereo system. It features 5.1-channel surround sound with Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro Logic II decoding, and it includes five small, identical satellites and a 100-watt, 6.5" fiber-composite cone subwoofer.

Each satellite speaker comes with a self-supporting, ball-joint pedestal that allows a 45-degree range of motion for optimal sound directing. All five satellite speakers easily connect to the subwoofer via the included 4m and 6m RCA connection cables.

The control module features a standard analog stereo audio input and two digital audio inputs--one coaxial and one Toslink optical. It also includes separate main, center, surround, and subwoofer volume controls; mute and on/off power buttons; and input, surround mode and Dolby Digital dynamic compression LED indicators. The controller can also connect to the subwoofer via the included DIN connection cable.

The GMX D-5.1 system delivers 108-decibel output through its 0.75-inch metalized polymer tweeter and 3-inch metalized fiber-composite midbass woofer. The tweeter is coupled to an exclusive Klipsch MicroTractrix Horn, which increases sensitivity while minimizing room interactions that blur the sonic detail and imaging of conventional speakers. Other features include a ported enclosure for reduced distortion even with boosted bass output and magnetic shielding to protect your TV or monitor from interference.

yeah.......2007-03-15

I love it it rocks.
What sucks is that you really need a nice sound card to really enjoy it.
I am using my onboard Nvdia sound drivers with digital optical. I can hear the pc noise in it sometimes. Basically to really enjoy it I would have to buy a nice Sound card that can do Dolby encoded signal.
For the price
Buy it.

Pretty Good Speakers.......2006-11-22

I got this system on sale a while back. It was pretty easy to set up except for movies. I couldn't get proper surround sound if my card processed the DD signal then sent it digitally to the speakers. I also couldn't get many of my sound card's nifty features to work correctly, even using a digital connection. I got it mostly working right and it sounds great, it was just a pain to figure out how to get everything somewhat working. I fear my speakers may be dead now. They just made a pop and I can't get sound out of them. That was really strange, they work now after some fiddling.

Great PC speakers.......2006-04-03

I have been using these speakers for about two years now they sound great. The bass is very powerfull, Note AM USING IT WITH FOUR SUBWOOFERS. Roger Waters (in The Flesh) just sounds awersome

Best sounding system you can get for $100.......2005-12-30

I am an audio freak and used many different types of speakers in all different environments. Really, I cannot think of anything else that you can get for $100 that sounds (and never mind looks) this good. Now if they have a white version, they can sell it at Apple stores for 3 times as much =P.

I would just caution that it requires space to be setup properly. I know you cannot get away with 5 speakers and a sub, but I almost wish the control unit can be designed to stand up vertically.

Amazing System.......2005-11-17

Like some of the previous reviewers, I can't believe some of the negativity coming out against these speakers. Most of it is user fault, thinking these will hook up easily to your pc or vcr and give you full fledged DD sound. If people actually spend time to read the specs of this system we would have no problems.

I just got these delivered 2 days ago and I must say WOW! They look great and have a good weight and solid feel to them. I bought them to use as pc speakers and hooked it up to my motherboard through an optical cable.

Sound is crisp, clear and very loud if you want it. I have no hint of any hiss or humming at all. This may be due to the optical connection, I haven't tried the RCA outs yet. The sub is plenty strong, hell with the music up loud you can use the sub as a fan, that much air pumps out of it. The control disc is also quite nice and easy to navigate.

I do wish it came with a remote and a headphone jack, but I'm still giving it 5 stars due to the quality of the product and the price($99) I paid for it.
