Klipsch (bekend van hun relaxt THX-certified ProMedia V.2-400 setje) heeft in deze press release de nieuwe ProMedia 2.1 speakerset aangekondigd. Dit 3-delig systeem krijgt een vermogen van 200 Watts RMS en een prijskaartje van 200 dollar. Aangezien de V.2-400 wél over surround speakers beschikte en de prijs slechts $50 hoger ligt vermoedt 3D SoundSurge dat deze 2.1 set van betere kwaliteit is:
Klipsch Audio Technologies has introduced the ProMedia(TM) 2.1, calling it the most powerful three-piece computer audio system on the market and the first three-piece system ever to be THX®-Certified. The price is $200 for this 200 Watts RMS system. Not sure how it compares to the ProMedia V.2-400 but considering the small price difference ($200 vs $250) the ProMedia 2.1 should be of better quality. Looking at the press release the only major differences except for the lack of surround speakers are the subwoofer that is said to use a "side-firing driver" instead of the dual side-firing driver used in the ProMedia V.2-400 subwoofer. The size of all the drivers are identical but quality may of course be of better. One new feature is the headphone jack. You can find a few more bits in the press release but no specs just claims of being great.
Thanks Joshua voor het opsturen!
