Mr St. Clair must work for Klipsch...or the devil.......
« on: June 27, 2005, 06:03:27 pm »
No, this isn't a flame. I've had your wonderful book for about 4 months now. Well, the other day I saw the klipsch 2.1 promedia speakers you recommend in your book. I picked up a pair for $150. Well, I hooked em up to my current PC (The cab wont be finish for a long time unfortunatly) and good lord, these things are amazing. I own polk and sony home theater systems, and have a set of 2.1 altec lancing pc speakers so I have a good ear for sound. My PC is equipped with a sound blaster audigy2 zs platnum. Here is my probliem Mr St. Clair.....Now I have the dirty urge to buy another pair of these Klipsch. I never want to unhook em'. These speakers have the best mids i've ever heard. Nothing stands out over another (Lows, mids, highs) it all blends together in beautiful sound. I recommend EVERYONE to buy these now! (And a good sound card if you are using intergrated) Go ahead.....and you might as well buy 2 pair, cause im sure you will have to have them!!!!! A+++++++! Most amazing sound my ears will hear for the next 10 years!

Yeah Klipsch are pretty darn nice. That's why they cost like twice as much as other speakers.  :-\

I have a set of Klipsch 4.1's on my main PC, a set of 2.1's in Project Arcade, a set of 4.1's on one of the kids' PCs, and a set of 2.1's in the basement :)

As the BYOAC Creative Labs T3000 2.1 designated spokesman, I cannot endorse the Klipsch speakers.  The T3000's are currently on sale for $20 at CC, which is an amazing value.  GO BUY SOME NOW!  (You can buy7 pairs of the T3000's for the same price as 1 set of the Klipsch - that's 7 cabs!)   :laugh:

Do you really need Kilpsch to effectively hear the 80's blips and boops of a Pacman? It's all well and good if you also use your game machine as a jukebox but what miniscule difference could it possibly make to a "wakka wakka"?

*shrug* Call me misinformed. It just seems like a horrendous waste of money and resources in this aready overly consumerist world. I suppose I see retrogaming as going back to a more innocent time, not embracing the sad present.
If you build a frankenpanel, chances are I don't care for you as a person.

Some people use them as a jukebox as well. but yes if you're just playing 80's games you wouldn't really notice.
