klipsch quintets

[Xeero]

anyone here own a set of klipsch quintets? if you do, do you have it hooked up to your pc? and did you hook it up through the promedia 5.1/ultra sub?

reason i asked is cause some guy on the klipsch forum hooked up his klipsch rsx-4 to his ultra sub. it runs fine with no problems

I also was wondering if the Quintets would run if connected to the promedia 2.1 subwoofer (as it has its own amplification)

nvm I just noticed the promedia 2.1 has a preamp built in the speakers...can't adjust volume with the Quintets..heh

The Quintets are old and inferior to even the ProMedia v.2-400s. I hope you're not considering buying them.

The control pod is detatchable. Not the most aesthetically pleasing thing in the world, but it'll work.

The Quintet satelittes use better components, and sound it. They're more robust, dynamic, and detailed than any of the Promedia speakers, and deliver more of both frequency extremes. The v.2 400's had a gaping midrange hole due to a poorly implemented crossover. Claiming they're superior to the Quintet's is outrageous.

Oh yeah, forgot about the crossover. That was a big problem, good point.
