These speakers are great !!! Loud and clear. Took a while to wait for the newer 4.1 set to come out but I'm glad I waited.

I only got to test the speakers out for a while since I got home from work at 10 P.M. and then had to go to Pathmark and get food for the house. Now it's too late at night to be blasting music.

Can't wait for tomorrow.

Thats what I hate about the night time :( You got some hella cool speakers there for sure. I'm still debating wether I should keep my home-theatre system hooked up or get some klipsches :)

I got mine a few weeks ago, and they are really loud, and they sound pretty good too. I got rid of my cambridge DTT2500's and my sblive platinum for the Klipsch and the gametheatre xp by hercules. They pack alot mor punch than what I had. Great speakers period.

I've had my Klipsch 4.1 set for a while now and think they are great.

Nomjr, How do you like the Game Theater? I've been pondering getting one. I read that there is a separate headphone amp in it, how would you rate the headphone output?

I used to have cambridge speakers as well until I bought the Klipsch set.

Frost, noticed that too. I finally finished building my main computer.

I was testing out the loudness of the speakers today and I didn't want to go more than half way because my ears started to hurt.

I think that the headphone output has more depth to it than the livedrive with the platinum. I'll really have more time to listen to it at the next lan event.

I wish they would make a 5.1 set already.

Yeah, I wish they made a 5.1 one too but I doubt they will make one or release one anytime soon since 4.1 just got released. I'd think that they would want to make some money off of these for a while. That's why I jsut said f*ck it and bought em. I'm very happy with them.

Do you guys like the face cover on or off ? I kinda like it off but I also like the THX on the cover so I only took off the rear speaker face covers.

They look great with or without the covers and damn but they sound incredible! i'm going to get an fm tuner card and put my home stereo system in a box and store it in the attic :)

Seems like they are short on stock right now with the 4.1's. They are offering the 4.2 systems for $100 off to make up for it ($299).
