I found it difficult to find some of the parts, especially the large electrolytic capacitors. While I am good at component level repair I found it easier to just send the board to Henry. [email protected]

It is not the speakers themselves. It is in the electronics.

Raja, sound question. I am truly impressed with the sound from my RIVBE. I am a true audiophile and I believe that this boards on board sound rivals the best of the add in sound cards to the point that I probably will stay with the onboard sound.. My issue is that the Realtek HD audio manager...

There is no maximum, the thicker the better as that reduces the resistance but after 12 or 14 gage anything larger is ridiculous. I never use anything less than 18 gage.

I also just heard from him. He repaired my unit almost five years ago and it has run well for that time. A few weeks ago it started to act up so I contacted him and he quoted me a fair price and a two week fix time. I sent it to him and I got a note back yesterday with a detailed list of what...

My Klipsch 5.1's failed again after five more years of excellent performance so I contacted Henry again. He gave me a very fair price for a repair and an upgrade in components so I shipped the unit to him. He responded quickly and I expect the unit back in a few weeks.

You can output analog to most receivers also. As far as Hennery is concerned. I see he has some new stuff posted on e Bay so he should be reachable.

Any speaker but the impedance should be the same (I e 4 ohm or 8 ohm) if possible for best match although any speaker will tell you that if it works it is the board and not the speaker.

Look at this one for parts http://www.ebay.com/itm/Klipsch-ProMedia-4-1-BASH-Amplifier-AS-IS-for-PARTS-OR-REPAIR-/261324468819?pt=US_Computer_Speakers&hash=item3cd826f253 And here is an I-O board for your unit...

I suspect it is the Amp but you can just attach a different Sub using the additional low pass output just connect a different bass speaker (disconnect the two Klipsch subs) just to try it. I can not know for sure but I really do not think it is the speakers. You can also disconnect one of them...

If you have no background in board level repair the best thing is to get someone to do it for you or even try to find a replacement board but what you can do is carefully inspect the components, see if any of the resistors are burned out or is any of the capacitors seem to be leaking or swollen...

I am using the low freq output for a 3rd Sub, a 15" B&W which sounds awesome. I doubt that the issue is your speakers. I am guessing a leaking electrolytic capacitor in the amp.

All I can tell you is that I had my amp board fail. I contacted Henery, he gave me a price and an estimate on how long it would take. I sent him my amp board. He contacted me when he got it, he reconfirmed the time it would take to fix it which was about a week if I remember correctly. When it...

I do not know. I do know that he still sells stuff on e bay so perhaps you can contact him there.
