Review: Great replacement for Klipsch Promedia 2.1 - First tried gluing a replacement foam surround on the original Klipsch woofer after it crumbled and it just didn't work out. It's a messy job, tricky to line everything up while glue dries much too fast, etc. Ordering this affordable speaker just a little more than the cost of the kit was SO much easier. It looks very well made and a great value. There's plenty of bass response and I don't even feel the need to turn the bass dial up more than halfway. Just a few notes: - Screw mounts line up perfectly and you can use the original screws - One of the connectors is a difference size then Klipsch, you can crimp on a new connector to the original wiring - To save some time and effort I just attached the original narrow crimped connector sideways so it grips the edge of the speaker's connector. Added some tight electrical tape around it and it seems to be holding fine - If you notice any buzzing after installation, check for air gaps in the case. Use silicone, etc to seal them air tight. - The original grill wont stay put, I've left mine open but you can probably use some shims + glue to make it work.
Review: Grandson’s project - I got this for my grandson who likes to build his own speakers. So far he said it sounds good. Looks great. It’s lightweight and it puts out a loud Bam Bam lol lol the size was perfect.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value
*by N***A on January 23, 2025*

im not expecting the same build and sound quality as a $100 speaker but I think everyone is over exaggerating the sound quality a bit. Yes it sounds good but its not as good as people make it out to be. This "deep bass" they speak of its not that deep, its not bad but its not great either and thats ok, i dont expect it to be and any reasonable person shouldnt either. The magnet is big and heavy, it has an aluminum voice coil, (not sure how more a copper coil would have cost) the cone is paper thin, its not thin and stiff, its just thin. the rubber surround is very flimsy, like a thick plastic bag and the basket is also very thin, you can easily bend it using your hands. To sum it up, Its like a high quality speaker that shaved off as much cost as you possibly can while maintaining some degree of sound quality and i believe they acheived this. You shouldn't have high expectations from a product in this price range but you can expect amazing results for a speaker at this price.
