Where would we be if klipsch had never offered the promedia line of multimedia speakers? We'd still be stuck with the kind dell gives away with their computers. I know a few people have a thing against klipsch but we really have them to thank for the great multimedia computer speakers we have today. No, i'm not promoting klipsch and i'm by no means biased toward them. Actually i'm considering the logitech z680's when I build my next computer in about a month. I'll wait till more comes out about them and I can check them in the store though.
