Review title: SUPERB sound... while they last
Product review: Have the original ProMedia speakers, but research shows that my comments are relevant to the Ultra version.These are without a doubt the best speakers I have heard for the intended use (small room HT or PC music/movies) and price... Crisp, clear, sparkling highs, clear, tight, unmuddied bass... truly spectacular.... until they fail.The power supply is under-designed, and fails at a very high rate. More aggravating, Klipsch refuses to repair/upgrade the production components, and charges $90 to replace known failure prone components WITH THE SAME PART NUMBERS!A couple of years ago, I located a repairman (in Texas IIRC) who did an upgrade of the subject parts in the power supply, and have had no problems after the upgrade... Do not recall his name or address, but since this is a well documented problem, I suspect any qualified electronics shop could do the same thing for about what Klipsch charges for reinstalling the same failing parts.
