PC Tech pouring one out for my Klipsch Promedia 4.1s

[elbobo]

 

Bought these in my freshman year of college back in spring of 2000 with my tax return money, they were the absolute god kings of computer speakers back then. They made it 22 years including some obnoxiously loud listening during college. Had a power surge a week ago and they are completely distorted now, thankfully the rest of my gear was not affected, what a run though.

Sad to hear

I kept seeing Klipsch advertisements on a website and was surprised to see they still make the 2.1 version. I haven't kept up with PC speakers for years. I wonder if their quality is still as good. My Logitech Z 2300's are still going strong since 2004.

I too am rockin' the ProMedia 4.1s from around 2003. I'll bump them up a bit louder tonight in honor of their fallen comrade.

I have been secretly hoping for my Creative Lab 7.1 PC speaker (can't even remember what the model is at this point) that I got back in 2001 to die. Sorry to hear about you loss.
