About this deal
You then connect the wired 3.5 mm input cable to your computer’s headphone output. There’s another 3.5 mm input on the side. But if your audio source doesn’t have a way to output sound through a 3.5 mm port (or through an adapter to 3.5 mm), the ProMedia 2.1 isn’t for you.
Klipsch recommends that you set your computer’s system volume to 70% and control the level of sound through the knob on the right satellite. That helps create the best sound. You then tweak the subwoofer level until you achieve the right balance for your room and ears. There aren’t any other adjustments you can make to the sound from the speakers. Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 review: VerdictThe Klipsch Promedia Heritage 2.1 multimedia speaker system looks great but it sounds even better. It may be simple when it comes to features but that does mean it puts all of its energy into doing exactly what you need it to, creating an immersive and rich audio experience, especially when you are sat in between the two speakers.
And, wow, can these things get loud. At max volume, we measured about 95 decibels. Impressively, they maintained that volume without distorting —something few speakers can manage. Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 THX review: Setup If you don’t have space for the subwoofer, Bose Companion 2 Series III have even better mid and treble performance, but nowhere near as much bass as the ProMedia 2.1. Plus they cost more. Turn the subwoofer around and you’ll find a few different controls and ports. To get it working with your phone or laptop, you can choose to use Bluetooth, the Stereo Analog RCA or the USB-A port. Another set of tabletop speakers to consider is the Ruark MR1 Mk2, especially if you don’t really want the extra bulk added by the subwoofer. They’re small, they’re powerful and like these, you can connect to them using Bluetooth. They’re actually much easier to control as well thanks to the handy dial on top.Naturally, you’ll get the best experience sitting in between the two small speakers, but even if you’re elsewhere in the room, the sound travels well. The audio makes you feel as if you’re right in the action like you’re listening to songs playing live or like you’re deep into a videogame's story.
